I’ve realized over the past year that round ligament pain, which I experienced most notably during my first ill-fated pregnancy, is more of a trollgesterone symptom for me than just a pregnancy symptom. It starts pretty reliably a few days DPO. I noticed the first bits of it today at 3 DPO. All through my life, I had moments/days where coughing or sneezing while lying down would cause that pain, but until @Bracken_Joy clued me into what that sensation is during my first pregnancy, I didn’t think there was a rhyme or reason to it. But I’ve been paying close attention to it this past year and have realized that it happens reliably cyclically and is never present outside of its usual time period—the TWW. And I also can tell it’s the natural progesterone because I don’t start my Endometrin till 8 DPO but the pain starts before.
Bodies be weird, and I honestly was so clueless about my body’s natural rhythms till I started TTC!

Infertility doc: email us the first day of your period to schedule HSG. And we can request it at a location close to you, no problem.
Me: emails the first business day of my period specifically asking for an appt at another location
Them: Sorry, we have no appointments at this location, please call the other locations yourself to schedule. +list.
Me:

Of the two KP hospitals near me, one said leave a message, and the other had no timely openings.

Sooo I’m driving an hour each way for a 30 min test. Like a loser.

WHY IS THIS MY JOB? DON’T I PAY THEM TO HAVE PEOPLE TO DO THIS FOR ME? WHY IS THERE NO ONE COORDINATING BETWEEN LOCATIONS?

HSG day! Never did hear back from my local radiology department so I’m in orange county an hour away. 
At least I got a 10:45 appointment so it’s a pretty easy drive (one highway all the way, minimal traffic outside rush hour). And my sister lives nearby if I get super crampy or something.

All done. Not too bad cramping wise. Right tube is blocked. 
Not surprised (that’s my endo side).

I was bopping along reading this blog post about the blogger falling down a rabbit hole for the past six years that ended in writing a book, and I started crying suddenly while reading it, and it took me unreasonably long, like several full minutes of crying, to figure out why. I was honestly like, “Am I so emotionally touched by this story of someone writing a book?” And then I realized that it was because I’d just read that through his grueling process of book-writing, his wife got pregnant, and their baby is due next month. And I have been through my own grueling process and am still no closer to a baby.
My mind was blown, though, at how my body picked up and started processing that information well before my mind could catch up with what was going on!
So, yeah, baggage, apparently.
