SHOULD I TRY MURPHY'S LAW?

I am waiting for my period. Waiting. Waiting. Waiting.

My final BCP was on Thursday. My body has had time to adjust itself, and should be bleeding by now! Hello!

As I complained about in the previous post, if I get my period Wednesday, my CD3 scan will fall on US Thanksgiving. I promised to drive my grandmother down to Vermont to see my aunt, uncle and cousins (who will be in for just a few days from college, and will be my grandmother's only opportunity to see them in the next few months.) If my period (or should I call it thorn in my side) arrives tomorrow, I hopefully will be able to get an early appointment at the clinic, and still make it to Vermont in time for turkey lunch.*

I was thinking... should I wear my brightest, cleanest, whitest underwear today? You think that would do any good?


*It is also fine if my period comes on Thursday, as I will be back by Saturday. But I will be left wondering why it took so long to appear.

Well, it can't hurt anything. I say go for it.

Wear white! It always ends up that way-you want it to come it doesn't, you don't want it to come and it does. Mine came on US Thanksgiving last year and I was in no mood to be with my husband's family.

Planning snafu's like this drive me up the wall. Sure, ART is not plannable, but this is uncalled for.

Either that or pee on a stick. That's got some serious 'bring it on' AF mojo, too.

murphys law almost always kicks in here - and you get your period when you least want it. But I hope you get lucky and the timing works out for you.

I agree, go for the whities. It's the same principle as repeatedly pushing the elevator button (which totally works- I'm sure of it).

Bring it on! I hope it shows up exactly when you need it to.

The white panties are a great idea, take it a step further to light colours pants or skirt.

Good luck.
