Waiting for stims...

So, here I am...I have finally finished the horrible birth control pills. Now, I am on to phase 2 of the IVF cycyle. Three days ago, I started Metformin, Estradiol and Androderm (testosterone) patches. I am still taking prenatal vitamins and a baby Aspirin everyday as well. I feel like an old woman, popping 6 pills a day :)I have to admit, I have been doing okay, until yesterday. The Metformin has horrible GI side effects...and everytime I eat...I soon regret it. I also started my cycle today, which has made things worse, becuase now I am cramping. So, I am moody, crampy and irritable. What a combination. On top of everything, we decided to get Libby a puppy. She has been begging us for a toy poodle. So, we finally caved. Last night, we were up all night with the puppy. This may not have been the best time to add a new member to our canine family! :)
