Shiny Happy People

I came across this article this morning called "12 Things Happy People Do Differently". I decided to take a minute to read it (and you should too) because I feel that as an infertile, there are so many things about our experience that can really get us down, make us depressed and cause us pain. And yes, some of it is the millions of hormones we're pumping ourselves full of. And everyone has their bad days...

but generally, are you a happy, positive person?

I like to think I am, but I know there are some things I can definitely work on. During this FET cycle, I've really tried to have an upbeat and positive attitude. Of course getting stabbed in the ass with a 2" needle, sort of makes one "desperate", but knowing the odds are in my favor (yes, said in the Hunger Games voice) for this cycle because we're doing an FET is really helping to boost my attitude. I've been optimistic in the past -- 9 IUI's ago; and it's true I didn't get the desired results. But, at this point, I would just rather be a happy person than a miserable one.

Does this process suck? Ab-sa-fucking-lutely...

But can we (and by we I mean all you STRONG women out there, and you all are) get through this and come out achieving our dreams? Ab-sa-fucking-lutely (ok, more like definitely maybe, but I'm trying...)

So Happy 2 ass shots Thursday and have a great day!
