Well, I think I am pretty proud of myself. I say that "I think" because I'm not completely sure how to feel about it yet. But this weekend I opened the doors a little bit wider and let 3 people in on our struggle. I feel good about it, but I also feel vulnerable with the exposure. I'm not sure what I'm afraid of, but it's new territory, I guess.
It started off with sharing with Kris (which again, was just wonderful). Then, yesterday at church I shared with another lady who I am becoming friends with. I don't know what was going on, but I could not keep the floodgates closed. I was so teary. I hadn't even taken my clomid pills yet, but everything was just getting to me for some reason. She took note of it and asked me if I'd like to talk. I said yes but was a bit hesitant, only because I didn't know if DH minded her knowing. I figured it was fine and told her. It was just nice because I was able to release all the emotion that I was feeling at that moment. I really needed that. And then today, I told my boss! I figured that I would be calling in sick (hopefully next week!) and just that it would be good for her to know. She is all about business (in a warm way) and wished me all the best. While I'm on the roll, I may just tell my close colleague too. Right now, I'm thinking the more support, the better (especially if it doensn't work...let's not go there yet though).
Day 2 of clomid. Yuck... I said goodbye to DH and told him that clomid me would soon be taking over, so he should get in some good kisses while I was still around..haha.
It feels so good to share!!! I always get nervous every time, but so far have not had a bad experience.
