(Well, except the IRL part, obvi)<br/><br/>And PS I'm thrilled AF came and you can get in another cycle before your trip, YEAH! Hi!

I read this post yesterday and then had a funny dream last night…we were friends IRL and hanging out and you were telling me the story of the party and how amazingly well you did.

I told you how I was so impressed by what a loving, caring person you were, how you were able to access the very best part of yourself in order to be truly happy for K and how happy I was you were my friend.

Sappy, I know!

But I decided just to write it anyway because it’s all true!! (Well, except the IRL part, obvi)

And PS I’m thrilled AF came and you can get in another cycle before your trip, YEAH!

You seem to have such a good attitude about everything. <br/><br/>That's strange about your period. I am sure that it is just because of all the drugs and hormones. I suppose it's a good thing too because it means that you are on your way to your next attempt. I am so glad that it was easier than you expected.

Looks like the weekend was full of good news. And to be able to cycle again before Italy . . . that's huge. Crossing everything for you! I’m so glad it the party wasn’t all that you’d dreaded.

Maybe letting yourself experience all of the apprehension and sadness, etc. beforehand allowed you to let those feelings go so that you had emotional room for some positive feelings.... Just my two cents...<br/><br/>Again, really glad that it went well! I was really worried about how you would get through that party – I am certain that my heart would have been palpitating, too.

I'm working on it myself -- I don't know if I'm quite as far along as you are though.<br/><br/>Good luck with this upcoming cycle! Do you have any idea how your protocol will be changed, or will you find that out at the next appointment? Acceptance feels good, doesn’t it?

The anger and the bitter feelings can be so hard to deal with! I''m sure it is comforting to know that you are able to accept this and will hopefully welcome your new niece or nephew with lots of excitement!

Glad you can cycle again. Hope this new-found peace means you're going to be ok for the long haul.
