After five and a half years of working like clockwork, that nasty old AF seems to want to start playing tricks on me again. As of now, I'm three days late. I am waiting for day 2, so I can go back into RE for more labs. Once I do that, then Ar and I will meet with the doc and discuss next steps - and find out our test results. But so far, AF is a no-show. In retrospect, I didn't mind so much when this happened last month, because truly I think it was the jolt I needed to get back into treatment. This month, however, it's just a hold-up.
Perhaps AF hasn't heard that I'm not getting any younger. Sigh, or maybe she has...
So, the delay of treatment aside, I'm a bit worried that perhaps I'm reverting back to my old PCOS ways... I used to never get my period - maybe 3 times a year, 4 tops. The last five plus years have been different, which has been encouraging. As much as I hate AF, when I get it regularly, as I have been, at least I feel like maybe my body is sort of working (somewhat) correctly - and that is encouraging.
So more waiting.
This morning I prayed for help to find a way to better fill the waiting. I don't necessarily even mean something more to do, but just to be more intentional in my waiting, I suppose. I recognize that I may be waiting forever, so I shouldn't squander it.
I also prayed for you. That is, if you're one of the 3 or 4 people who I know might read my little blog. ❤
For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. (Ephesians 3:14-21)
Darn AF just likes to be as mischevious as possible! That's a big complaint for me...If I have to be infertile, why do I still have to have visists from AF every month?! Lol.
