I have been taking 2 birth control pills a day for weeks now and they just switched me to a new kind because I wasn't responding the way they had hoped. I was still having breakthrough bleeding. (Now keep in mind my 7 year old son was conceived on the pill so I know my body reacts uniquely.) Ive already put on weight from the pills and have bloating. This new pill is supposed to be stronger and I think it is. I was very cranky today. Had to catch myself a couple times and tell myself "its just the meds, this wouldn't normally upset you" My kids called me out and we all laughed about it. Despite it all today ended with me cuddling on the couch with my kids. Im just grateful the hormone imbalance isn't so bad that I am crying over things, then we are in trouble :)
I start my injections this week and stop the birth control a few days after that. Then I am on a very strict (sometimes three times a day) medication schedule for the next month. It includes pills, creams, and injections both in my stomach and butt. Because it is not my egg, my treatment is similar to any IVF patient. The actual date for transfer will be set for the beginning of December.
Just wanted to warn everyone in advance... I'm feelin'the Hormones :)
