Last night a baby girl who was clearly our daughter appeared in my dream. She looked exactly how I'd pictured her- chubby with a full head of thick hair (of course she looked like I'd pictured, right? It was MY subconscious dreaming her up). There was also something to do with the date July 11th, which I took note of. This is the very first time I've dreamt of babe #2, and I took it as an auspicious sign that perhaps his/her journey to us is near.
I should also point out that Iyla appeared to me in a dream about 3 weeks before we conceived her….
I had fun this cycle obsessing over every.little.thing, since the anty was upped with the Femara and IUI. I Googled endless DPO sign threads and paid crazy attention to every twitch and tingle in my body. I do still feel very Zen about this process, and keep faith that another babe will come to us. I have learned I can do everything humanly possible to call that little one in- but that in the end, they will come when THEY are good and ready.
Having said all that, I unfortunately think this cycle is a bust. I had pink spotting at 5dpo with light brown since then- and today at 8dpo there was a significant swipe of red blood in the morning. It seems really early for my cycle to be starting (and would be an extremely short luteal phase!), but alas- it appears that's what may be happening.
The lovely silver lining this month? Our upcoming trip to New York City in TWO WEEKS!
I plan to fully partake in cocktails.

Worth the wait

Wait... NYC trip? If you have time I would love to meet up!
ReplyDeleteHi Belle! It is a quick 4 day getaway with some friends of ours. Is there a way for you to get your email/phone to me in the event it looks like I can sneak away for a coffee or lunch? xo
