Friday morning came with a excruciating wake up call that was AF (aunt flow aka period) as happy I was that she was here, she didn't need to arrive with such a bang!! I waited until I got to work and phoned the hospital around 9:30 and got through to the reception who then passes me through to the nurses station nobody answered the phone and I had to leave a voicemail, I'm never good at these things on any normal day but today I froze at a loss of what to say on my message and ended up saying "my name is Mandy hill and I have my period can someone call me back please" after I hung up I couldn't help but laugh at how ridiculous I must have sounded!!
It wasn't until just before lunch time one of the nurses called me back and I explained that I was calling to get an appointment to start the next round of ICSI IVF and to my total surprise they have booked us in to attend on Monday! I never expected it to be so soon and was taken aback I didn't know how to feel about it. It wasn't until I got home after work that night it hit me and I got a bit upset about everything.
Now here we are the night before our appointment and I feel sick with nerves, already there has been tears. As much as I thought I was ready to do this again the reality of it all has hit me like someone punched all the air out of my lungs that this is it, our last chance of finally getting our dream come true.
I'm curious to see what happens tomorrow and find out when it'll start officially all I know is I'm going to enjoy the next few days and bring in the new year surrounded by my amazing husband and my awesome parents and my best friend having a drink or two before the hard work really begins!
I'll take this time to wish you all an amazing new year and let's hope 2014 is our year xx
