This is the Pursuit of Wellness podcast, and I'm your host, Mari Llewellyn. Hello everyone, welcome back to a solo episode. We have a lot to catch up on. Today's a big episode. We have a lot happening with IVF. I want to be so honest. I just got to the studio and I'm on all new medication leading up to the transfer and they warned me I might feel dizzy. And I'm definitely feeling that way right now. I started progesterone shots, which are kind of known as being like the worst part of IVF. They go in your butt. They can be really painful. Honestly, hasn't been that bad so far. Greg is like doing a great job. And then I'm taking like endometrien and all this stuff, like a lot of suppositories. Just, I'm so sorry if you don't want to hear about this, but like basically shoving pills up my vagina all day and taking pills orally, injections, like honestly,
this feels like more medicine intense than the IVF like stim shots like I feel like I'm having to stay on top of so many different meds and legit as I pulled in the office today I'm so dizzy so I apologize if I sound low energy or my eyes are like not focused I am not doing great right now but I was like you know what I want to get on the mic and tell them what's going on because that is the point of the show and I also wanted to say, I feel so much more comfortable sharing here on the podcast and with the Power Girls. I feel like Instagram and TikTok feel really vulnerable and you never really know what algorithm you're gonna land on. And just like the way that people, I don't know, like I posted, I went to a wedding in Mexico, which we need to talk about.
I posted a photo and everyone's commenting like, pregnant, calling it now. She's pregnant and it's getting like a hundred plus likes. And it's just like, dude, people are so rude. I get why people are guessing that. Of course, I've been talking about it a lot and that is completely reasonable. But just the way they go about it, people are so insensitive sometimes. But anyways, my transfer is coming up And I just want to be clear. I think I've said this. I haven't shared the exact date of the transfer because just to be honest with you guys, I don't know if it's going to work. And it takes two weeks to even find out if it did work. And those two weeks are going to be really hard and really anxiety provoking.
I'm going to try my best to not... Test at home. I know a lot of girls do that, but you can have false negatives. You can have false positives. Like, I just don't want to do that to my mental state. Let's see if I actually stick with that. But I have to wait a while to find out if it even worked. And then even after that, you're not... really out of the woods until a few days later because you have to keep going back for more testing. So I don't want to share that the day because I don't want people reaching out constantly to see if it works. I don't want to add that pressure on myself and I don't want to jinx it. I don't know. I'm just having a lot of feelings around it. So honestly, like I was... feeling really good before about 15 minutes ago.
I was pretty nervous about going to Mexico. It was one of my best friend's weddings and I knew I really wanted to be there for her. We've become super close the past like six months and I had just heard about this wedding so much from her and it was such an honor to be invited and I was definitely nervous about traveling outside the country with my meds and just like I didn't want to get sick and all these things. But it was such a beautiful, magical experience. I think it was the perfect thing for me to do to be surrounded by love, good vibes, sunshine, beach. I stayed 100% sober the whole weekend, which it was the craziest wedding, guys. Like, I can't even put into words. I wasn't allowed to share about it on Instagram because it's going to be shared in like a major publication.
So we have to wait. But oh my gosh, I got to celebrate with, you know, my best friends and see someone I care about so much get married. Actually, she's been on the show, Paige Mycoskie, founder of Aviator Nation, and her wife, Jess.
