1. Don't try this alone. And with a 4 and a half year old tag along. Better done with a supportive partner in the country. Better yet, do it in the country you are residing in with everyone you know and love around the corner for emotional support.
2. Have comfy, supportive and soft bras so it isn't too uncomfortable when your tits feel like they are on fire. Can be used when pregnant too (that is if you get pregnant or are optimistic that you will)
3. Have undies that err on the side of being a bit granny cause once your tummy starts bloating, you don't want to wear anything that presses on your belly. Don't see how a G string would be useful either for obvious reasons.
4. Further to the undies tip, have comfy, stretchy clothes you can wear that don't make you look like a bogan. A bit of planning and shopping may be needed.
5. Once that egg white starts flowing, you really can't miss it, use a pantyliner.
6. Don't inject in the same place all the time cause you'll get a big lump at the site. Also might be a good idea to inject on both sides of your belly to spread the loving to both ovaries. Not sure if it has any effect or not.
7. Don't stress and don't stress about stressing or not stressing. Further, do whatever you think will help just so you can say you tried everything you could and won't regret not doing something. (I, on the other hand am saying screw it all and just trying to maintain a state of zen instead of worrying about diet, yoga, exercise, accupuncture, meditation, coffee drinking or anything at all really. I'm sure i'll always wonder if i could've done more but really, i barely get through the day so to hell with it all!)
8. Don't live with people you don't normally live with and stay the hell away from family dramas.
9. Start a blog. Send everyone to your blog instead of having to wax eloquent about everything they may or may not want to know about in person. Probly wise to only tell people about your blog if you're not bagging them in your blog. Which is a bit tricky because really everything is irritating and everybody becomes a target cause you're so overcome with the hormones that rage becomes a very real part of your existence.
10. Be hopeful but pessimistic.
11. Have a stash of cash you can use because believe me, honey, you'll need the retail therapy!
12. Plan to be busy but also plan to have alot of time to rest. Would be handy to have a person around who could wait on you hand and foot if it were needed.
Last but not least. It's completely and utterly okay to be psycho!
