Tonight I start the HGH injections.
I am getting excited about this cycle, no idea why, but I am. Maybe it's because it is something new: we're PGS testing the fresh embryos and transferring the frozen embryos. From those frozen ones - one is hatching. I've never had a hatching blast before. I am beyond elated for this. Also, by the time we transfer, I'll be on my diet for 2.5 months. I don't think I've ever been on a diet that long before an IVF cycle. I know I was on one prior to my transfer that resulted in my first pregnancy - even tho it failed - but it wasn't for that long of a time. I've been really sticking to this diet, and I'm really proud of myself for it. It seems really easy to stick to, especially when you realize how crappy sugars and grains make you feel. I've switched to completely wheat free and I feel great. I make my own bread with almond flour and you don't get that bogged down feeling after eating it. Also, where I live currently, bread isn't as great as when I was back home (I'm talking good crusty semolina or Italian bread), so I don't really have the opportunity to get bread. I'm Italian, so I realize it's sacrilege, but the bread really does suck down here. Down here it's all about tortillas. I found a way to make those Paleo too. This weekend I plan to try to make Paleo tamales because for whatever reason, I crave tamales post transfer. I'm cutting out wine aside from weekends now. Last night was my first to night without a glass before bed. I really do enjoy a port before I go to sleep, it does get me to sleep fast.
