Egg retrieval will be in 34 or 3-4 weeks? ;)

My cycle and anxiety will probably start Christmas day which I think will be the best present (that's the first time I've ever said that)!  I will finally be able to get the ball rolling and start BCPs!  I am also excited and scared!

Sorry I did mean 3 to 4 weeks! I'm mobile bumping and for some reason symbols don't show up! Lol!

It is quite a turn of events when you think about it and very ironic. Not only was I looking forward to getting AF but I'm also excited to start bcp's.

Ahhh! The things we do for IF!
