This is my second IVF and I hear you completely about following blogs that are running close to the same cycle as me. I do follow along with everybody on my list, but commenting is hard when their news is good and mine is not there yet. <br />I'll be following along with you for this cycle. I hope it brings the news you are waiting for!!

I do the same things at times. You need to do what is best for you, and your true bloggy friends will understand. Know that I will continue to support you, and expect nothing in return. I want the best for you, and will cheer you on. <br /><br />Good luck starting the stims!!Piehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07331859341593997811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2306202511573901064.post-24937661820836902692010-06-10T08:43:44.406-07:002010-06-10T08:43:44.406-07:00I read all of the ones that I am following - but I...I read all of the ones that I am following - but I tend to not go out of my way to read new ones that are PG or parenting.

That happene...I'm so sorry about the headaches! That happened to me the first time I gave up caffeine. Now I do drink coffee occasionally, but when I skip days, I don't get the headaches as bad as I used to.<br /><br />As for blog reading, if I'm having a bad day I tend to skip pregnancy blogs and come back to them at a later time. It's just easier for me to cope that way and it keeps me from getting too emotional. I still follow everyone's journey, but some days are just too difficult to see pregnant bellies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2306202511573901064.post-60482402623319147902010-06-10T06:10:09.251-07:002010-06-10T06:10:09.251-07:00Ouch, caffeine headache sounds rough :(.
I do the ...Ouch, caffeine headache sounds rough :(.<br />I do the same thing with blogs - sometimes those pg and miscarriage blogs can be too much to read when I'm in a shaky emotional state. By the same token, there are times when I can't read newly IF blogs - just starting to visit the RE, etc. It's just too hard for some reason.<br />I think we naturally are drawn toward those people who are like us, who can help us the most at that particular time, and that's okay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2306202511573901064.post-2997872735979040992010-06-10T05:49:17.114-07:002010-06-10T05:49:17.114-07:00I understand where you are blog wise.

I felt it was too soon to hold hope so I didn't want to read pregnancy blogs and the women's blogs that weren't going through IVF were, well, i needed someone going through what I was going through. I hope you don't mind if I keep supporting you. I made a pact with myself to support everyone on my blog through their journey and you're on it! I have great hopes for you this cycle.Amber Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09018361388875043216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2306202511573901064.post-17159122450563471052010-06-09T19:27:58.811-07:002010-06-09T19:27:58.811-07:00Ohhh, I am so sorry for the headaches.

The withdrawal headaches are awful!<br /><br />I read a variety of different IF blogs, both of women who are pregnant or parenting and those who are still going through treatments, both IUIs (as I am) and IVF. I will confess that I sometimes avoid the pregnant/parenting blogs when I'm going through a rough spot, and a few I have had to stop reading because the posts consistently upset me.<br /><br />Having said that, there is something especially nice about reading the blog of someone who is at about the same place as I am in my "journey."Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08872513410814268769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2306202511573901064.post-32890985043767255602010-06-09T16:26:54.964-07:002010-06-09T16:26:54.964-07:00I always read or at least skim everything in my re...I always read or at least skim everything in my reader. Some people's blogs are wholly painful for me at any time, especially those who are succeeding with a pregnancy after the 2nd tri. I certainly looked around for people doing a FET recently, as I am. Wishing you luck as you start stims! Your transfer may be around mine! June 23.bibchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13696528943928321710noreply@blogger.com
