First IUI, now in the dreaded 2ww. Losing my marbles
The 2ww is absolutely driving me insane, crazy, batty, nutty this time around. I mean SERIOUSLY! I am physically and mentally incapable of thinking about anything else other than the outcome of this cycle. I wish I could will my mind to think about something, anything, but I simply cannot. Let me give you a little peek into the madness that is my mind right now:
"Am I?"
"Probably not"
"...But maybe"
"What if..."
"Damn, don't get your hopes up"
"...But maybe"
"15% chance w/IUI... that isn't so great"
"...it is way better than less that 3% on our own..."
"What if I have twins"
"What if I have triplets"
"Where would we put them all?"
"Don't be silly"
"I could tell my mom on Christmas"
"I would BE a Mom next Christmas"
"Stoppit, you're just torturing yourself, remember LAST Mother's Day? Same stuff, difference day"
"...But MAYBE"
"Stop, JUST STOP

My husband and I have been trying for 18 months and just had our first IUI this Saturday. All of my friends are getting pregnant with little to no effort, and I am just feeling like no one in my life "gets it." Anybody else TTC ing with IUI in the Portland area? I would love to have someone to help talk me thru these 2 weeks. And god forbid we get a BFN, I will definitely need a friend that understands. Any tips/ or advice are much appreciated.
