I Thought This Only Happened in Bad Movies
5 dpiui
I don’t remember the last time I felt so little in the way of symptoms. I’ve basically felt something every day since the IUI in October that ended with a D&C in December. After that, I was healing and waiting for the next cycle. Then I was stimming. Then I was dealing with a chemical pregnancy. Then I was gearing up for this natural cycle and suffering with a cyst. Now I feel nothing. I’d like to be relieved and to relish in this non-feeling. But 5 days post-iui, that doesn’t bode well. Even with the IUIs that haven’t worked, I’ve felt something….
In a move that can only prove that the universe has a wicked sense of humor, we found out today that hubby’s cousin had a baby. Normally I’d be full of congratulations – hard as it is, I try very hard not to begrudge people the thing I want most. But….wait for it…..she apparently had no idea she was pregnant. As hubby put it “She went to the doctor complaining of stomach cramps and came out with a baby.”
Yes, she’s overweight but she apparently HAD noticed the weight gain (her doctor told her to join a gym). The kicker is that she already has 2 kids. How can she not know that she’s pregnant.
Forgive my language but this can only be filed under “What the Fuck”!?! It’s sometimes hard not to be bitter…
