New Worries

I'm a worrier. Anyone that knows me in real life, knows this about me. I plan and I worry. With this "rest" cycle I've done anything but rest. I've been worrying. About everything and anything that can go wrong with our upcoming IVF cycle.

My new current fear is regarding the baseline u/s this upcoming week. I'm worried that at it there will be a LOT of cysts left over from all the stim meds I had in the last cycle. I'm worried that this will cause this cycle to be postponed another month and I'll have to be on BCP to shrink the cysts and will then be over-supressed again. I'm worried that if we have to postpone, we will run into possible weather-related closures of the clinic. They are open every day except Christmas, but last year during our huge snowstorm (Seattle doesn't get snow) the city shut down and the clinic with it. I never asked what the policy would be regarding snow closures as we thought we were doing a summer IVF.

I'm trying to use positive visualization instead of focusing on the negative in the hope that the positive vibes will affect the outcome. Only time will tell and hopefully I'll have some good news to post later in the week when I get the "all clear" from the RE and start this IVF cycle.
