And we’re off!
3 days of injections down...6-7 more to go. They really freak you out about what could go wrong - mood swings, bloating, nausea, etc., but I feel pretty ok. Feel like i’m losing my strength and starting to get a��little soft, but nothing quite as dramatic as I had expected it to be. 
What has got me shook is whether or not this will go well. Because I haven’t felt terrible, I feared that my estradiol test would indicate that this isn’t working well. Then there’s the fear that I’m doing this for naught, that I won’t meet someone to spend my life with and start a family with. Would I donate my eggs? This is another topic for another time. 
I watch my friends and cousins living their adult lives - taking care of their kids, doing household chores, spending time with their SOs - and I can’t help but feel like I'm useless, like I'm not doing anything of significance. It makes me listless and unproductive, like I'm not earning my keep as an adult. I find myself envying their most mundane of weekend activities. 
The combination of these feelings has made it hard for me to have a positive attitude, which I know is particularly critical so that this energy leads to a successful retrieval. I find that it’s difficult to be positive when I don’t see progression on the horizon. Where is that person who I'm supposed to spend the rest of my life with? Is that person just me? I already know that I like me. I’ve long accepted who I am, where is that other person who accepts me for who I am and wants to spend time with all of this on the reg’? 
For now, I guess I’ll have to find satisfaction with a solid number of frozen eggs.
