a sign of reassurance

Today I was absent from Mommy's mind. She was busy with work and suffering from a series of cramps with the Clomid drug in effect as well. It comes in throbbing waves, sometimes light, sometimes heavy. She dragged herself like a zombie the whole day and only dream of bed, but she can't, so Mommy persevered. Her stomach is bloating twice as normal on a typical menses duration, and she felt heavy. Thank God there's no nausea - if not Mommy won't last for another hour! She has heard all sorts of complaints against fertility drugs - like excessive weight gain, hormonal changes, and pimples breakout. It's only the second day of medication and she's worried senseless. Somehow, God sent her a small hidayah through some wise words of Aunty Liz. When they met, Aunty Liz related to Mommy on how at one time, her husband complained how tired they were after having babies. Aunty Liz then reminded to themselves that they were sans babies for five years and how they went up and down all sorts of fertility centres in the effort to conceive. So having said that, now that Allah has grant them their wish, they should not complain. At that, Mommy understood the point - if you want something so badly, you should never complain about how you suffered through it. Rewards awaits those who are patient.

So be patient Mommy - 4 days more....
