Today I got to meet Shawna for lunch at one of my favorite restaurants-double score!!! We're actually both going through the same clinic and her doc, Dr. K, is the one that did my ER. It was great to talk to someone who knows EXACTLY what's going on. I heart all my friends who ask me lots of questions and I don't mind answering but to chat with someone whose going through the exact same thing, with the exact same people-it was pretty cool.
I hope I helped her out by answering some of her questions and I hope I didn't talk too much! LOL On thing that she asked me was how did I find my way to move on after my BFN? I know I've talked about all the crazy emotions I went through but here's what I told her, or at least what I hope she heard! That Wednesday of the BFN, I went through every emotion in the book. And me and God? We were NOT on good terms that evening. I knew at that point after I was feeling hopeless, angry, letdown that I did NOT want to feel that way. I needed to talk to someone because I knew that it was NOT healthy. Even after talking to our pastor friend, I still upset and depressed so I took my time to grieve and I think part of what pulled me out of my funk was NYE and a night out with my friends.
I have made my mind up that I really need to work on being more positive before the FET. I'm feeling really good about Shawna's cycle so I'm crossing my fingers, legs, hair, eyes for her. It was great to meet her and I hope we have many more lunches together!

It was so much fun meeting you yesterday. I was so excited and I hope I didnt talk your ear off. lol You have been so extremely helpful and sweet in everything you have told me and I will never be able to repay you. I am looking forward to more lunches also. I forgot to tell you, I wore the socks you gave me yesterday!!!
Thats really great you all got to meet.
I wish I lived by you!!! I would love meeting you for lunch.
How nice you ladies live near each other!!! What a wonderful means of support you can offer each other and so unique because not many people can say I am walking in your shoes. xoxoxoxox
AWESOME!! I am so glad that you found someone who truly understands what you are going through. I know that is always very comforting.
Awesome that you two met - it sucks that I've been in STL so many times and you've been so generous to offer to help us or meet up and our trips are late night and early morning ones.
But I hope someday we can meet up so I can give you a big hug and thanks for being such a great friend!
Glad you got to have such a good time with an IF'er! No IF'ers live too close to me...the only one who did moved to FL.
