Teetering on the edge of the progesterone rollercoaster

Yes, folks, after thinking for most of this last week that the progesterone wasn't 'getting to me this time!' It got me yesterday. It only got me for a few minutes - at least a few crying minutes - but it got me nevertheless. After the best night's sleep I'd had all week (a whopping 8 hours!) I still was in a cranky mood, almost left my spin class in the middle and by the time I made it home just before lunch had a little breakdown in front of Mr.Right. Of course, we had the painters in our kitchen and dining room so it couldn't be a total meltdown. I had to pull it together enough to go downstairs to the kitchen for lunch.

Anyhow, I recovered. We had a nice bbq yesterday afternoon with Mr.Right's Norwegian-side cousins (at their daughters' house nearby). I was so tired as we were driving to their house to arrive at 4 p.m. yesterday, but it was so much fun that I didn't realize I was tired again until we left at about 8:30 p.m.

And more BFP news (from Fran) is a good thing to hear about this morning. I'm willing myself to be hopeful for my own BFP this Friday. With the progesterone fog setting in, though, I doubt that will be easy this week.

  3. Hope this week is fast!!!

    I also have serious progesterone symptoms. But here's hoping you have to stay on that silly progesterone for a while longer, after you get your BFP!!!
