Picking up the pace in The ugly truth about making babies

I’m off work sick with a migraine. Honestly, it’s like the migraine that just keeps on giving. I’m at the point where I don’t know if the migraleve is making me feel worse because of the codeine in it. It sends me really funny and woozy, and I can’t tell right now if I feel like that cos of the codeine or if it’s the migraine. I’ve literally been taking painkillers since Thursday, spoke to my doctors surgery today to request a prescription for sumitriptan. I have migraines so rarely now that I never have any in the house, although it does seem that when I get one it’s worse than ever with more symptoms.

I’ve been resting a lot, but also needed to get some things done. I spoke to our fertility spec nurse this morning to ask what happens now I’m at target weight and to ask about the ivf information afternoon. I’m really glad I did as the info session is actually this week with it being June 1st on Thursday, and we’ve managed to get booked onto that. Should we have waited to speak to the doc next week we’d have had to wait until July. I also have the big weigh in on Friday with the spec nurse, so i need to be super strict for the next 4 days to make sure I’m under target when I see her! It’s hard when the only thing that quells the migraine related nausea is eating. I’ve been nibbling apple, doesn’t quite have the same effect as the ginger snap biscuits that I usually eat!

So things are moving forward and we’ll have more of an idea by the end of the week as to what the next step is. Presumably we’ll hear from the Hewitt centre with an appointment - it all seems very real now!
