CD7 and Scarlett sick

Let's start this post by talking about Scarlett being SICK again since Thursday night.  It's 9:40pm on Sunday night and Scarlett is WIDE AWAKE and sitting on the floor beside me emptying her Cheerios all over my bedroom floor - it's a good thing I vacuumed yesterday.  She seems so much better, it's not another ear infection - but she slept most of the day today and is wide awake.  I'm not sending her to daycare tomorrow, my parents said they will watch her - she just has a cold now.  But she still has to get up in the morning.  

I wanted to write this post hours ago but I've been entertaining Scarlett...and now I'm losing my momentum and wanting to clean up and go to sleep.  Forget about me doing any of my school work.  It's a good thing my evaluation is over.

This morning I had my Sono (SHG) to check my uterus.  My parents started my day on the wrong foot - my mom made it out like she was doing me the biggest favour watching Scarlett b/c she woke up so early - when she had a breakfast to go to and would have had to wake up even earlier had she gone.  I got lectured about not thinking things through properly by my dad - like he's in my head and knows how much thought I am constantly putting into this.

And yet, this evening, to see my dad with Scarlett pointing out the "birdies" and singing to her - I know he's just worried about me being overwhelmed - but don't they see how relaxed I am with Scarlett...how she makes me different from who I am?

Anyway, today I had my blood work, ultrasound, and Sono (SHG).  It wasn't as uncomfortable as I remembered it being last time.  In fact, I told my RE that the speculum was much worse than the test.  My next appointment is on Wednesday for b/w, u/s, and to talk with my RE...that will be CD10.  I'm getting closer to this cycle ending and my transfer cycle beginning.  

Tonight a friend asked me to arrange a playdate for two Saturdays from now.  We talked about how it has to be the morning b/c our kids have different pm nap schedules.  But I couldn't confirm with her - I haven't told anyone my plans and as those of you know who have gone through the fertility route, you find out from day to day when you will be having monitoring, testing, or other appointments.  How can I book a playdate for two Saturday mornings from now?  Mornings are when I go for my monitoring.  And what kind of excuse can I make that I won't know for a little while.  

I wish I was able to post this in the morning - my emotions were so much more raw and real.  Now it just seems like I'm telling a boring story - when in reality I cried almost the entire way to my appointment (30 minute drive).  

It's 8 minutes to ten and my pretend Siri is telling me to go to bed...really it's just me being insistent!  I'm exhausted from being up with Scarlett for the past 3 nights!  Hoping tonight might be much better.
