"It" in this context being:
My six week sabbatical.
and
My period.
In theory my sabbatical started at 5:30pm on Friday night. In practice when I left work at cowboy time (ten to ten) on Friday night I still hadn't finished. At a similar time on Sunday night when I emailed my boss the report I'd spent the weekend writing I thought it had begun. In practice I think it was started when I pressed send of the email to my colleague at 4.22 this morning. Don't worry, I hadn't been up all night but I awoke with a start and remembered one final thing I'd forgotten to arrange.
My period started, as predicted, on Saturday but after midday. So my official cycle day one was Sunday. Tomorrow morning (day three) I go for my scan and all being well start the injections.
One day in and everything seems to be going swimmingly, let's hope the same can be said for the husband's sperm.

Happy 6 week sabbatical - fingers crossed that this does the trick :) I'll be following your journey and cheering you on!
ReplyDeleteI just thought of you this morning and wondered where you were in all of this- good luck!!!
ReplyDeleteConscientious lass, aren't you? Where was the temptation to get up at 5:30pm on Friday and shout 'that's it! You're on your own!' before sprinting from the building, shrieking with glee?
ReplyDeleteGood luck, good luck, good luck.
Yay for the sabbatical and the cycle start!! Good luck!

ReplyDeleteIt's nice to be right - I believe that I said that the thing to go wrong with your sabbatical would be that you would still be working. ;) Mission accomplished, now on to the rest!
