My FET was 8 days ago. My pregnancy test is in 7 days. I've tried not to analyze everything that I feel or think. A few hours after transfer I started to get the beginnings of a migraine. Thankfully it stayed low grade, but it stayed...until Monday. Tuesday was a great day! Then Wednesday hit.
I've had migraines for 18 years. I know how they start; I know how to take care of them. But, my migraine meds are off limits as of transfer. So Wednesday morning I wake up and can tell one is coming. Usually, at that point I would take an imitrex shot and a long hot shower. But, imitrex is not allowed. So, I suck it up and proceed to vomit my intestines up.
Two hours and five vomits later I'm in tears as I tell my sub what do, prep seat work for the kids, and call my chiropractor and doctor. I have a fabulous (and painful) massage. I go home and fall asleep. The nurse calls and gets the particulars of my migraine history and my current migraine. She tells me it is probably the estrogen I'm taking. I told her it is following normal pattern. She called back and said I could have my imitrex until I have a positive pregnancy test. UGH! 6.5 hours and 2 doses later, I can finally crawl out of bed without a migraine. If I had taken that shot at 6:00 in the morning along with my shower, they would have never known at work that I had woken up with a migraine!!! So, I lost a day of my week.
My father did a good job with the shots, but I'm glad my husband is back. There's just something creepy showing one's backside to one's father.
Today has been a roller coaster ride. I got home from a school activity and found blood when I went to the bathroom. It was light pink, and I haven't seen it since. Implantation? I'm hoping. As I said before - seven days left.

Ouch ouch ouch, so sorry about the migraine! I've been thinking about you, but not sure if you wanted to talk about it or were trying to keep your mind off it. If you need an ear, I'm here - and otherwise I'm keeping you in my thoughts & prayers. Love you!
