January 4, 2000

OK. Welcome to Basket-Case Central.

Today is CD 22, 12dpo.

My temp this morning was very high -- a good sign considering that it usually starts to fall at 11 dpo to let me know AF is coming. Of course, the negative home pregnancy tests last night and this morning were not so encouraging -- I'm trying to convince myself that it's a case of testing too early -- which it probably is, right?

Boobs are sore, abdomen is a little swollen, I'm going to the bathroom a lot -- but these may be residual effects of the injectibles and HCG shots. No other discernable symptoms to speak of...

I'm going nuts. I need to know -- one way or the other. It's a REALLY good thing that DH took me away for New Year's (which was wonderful, by the way -- we went to Newport, RI for a very relaxing 4 days) -- but I thought I'd be relaxed enough to wait these last few days without testing early, and obviously, that did NOT happen.

AF is NOT due on Thursday, January 6th. 48 whole hours away. Last night I told DH that I wished he would just hit me over the head with a sledgehammer to knock me unconscious for a few days in the hope of preserving some shred of my sanity. He wouldn't do it. What kind of supportive husband does he think he is when he won't even give his wife a helpful blow to the skull?

Maybe if I concentrate hard enough I can get the Earth to spin on its axis just a little bit faster -- like Superman. I CAN'T TAKE THIS!!!! Sometimes I think I'm so strong, handling this so well, and then there are days like this when I know I'm a wuss.

I hope to have some news to share soon, and I doubly hope that it's good. Wish me luck.

Better go before the men in white jackets show up for me.

Fingers crossed,
Amy
