6/30/12 - Dinner To Go and NERVES

Tonight Corey and I took my brother to Petland to see a pug puppy that we've been looking at. We've pretty much decided that if Monday we find out we're NOT pregnant, we'll go buy the pug :)

Then we went to dinner at Grimaldi's. We ordered our food and got our appetizer... Then my ALARM on my phone went off reminding me to do my Progesterone in Oil shot! Whoops! We forgot about the 7pm shot we do EVERY night. So... We let the waitress know we needed it To Go and we headed out for the 20 minute drive home. :)

I've been feeling very nervous lately and I can't stop thinking about the test in 2 days! I haven't felt anything close to a symptom... Which I know is probably normal because I would only be about 3 1/2 weeks pregnant. But your mind just goes through these things and analyzes everything.

I also keep thinking about the scenario of if I AM pregnant. I feel like it will be hard to really celebrate until I'm through my first trimester. I'm just so worried about early miscarriage. I will be happy of course but just very nervous.

I wish I wasn't working Monday. It will be hard to think about anything else, PLUS they'll be calling me with the results when I've still got a couple more hours on the clock. I know that last time I had an emotional meltdown... So that gets awkward at the office ;)

Hopefully everything goes well. Thank you for all the positive messages and prayers!!

6/26/12 - First Blood Test

So far so good!  Dr. D says the blood test today "shows early signs of implantation".  :) Official test was moved to Monday 7/2 because they're closed Sunday. 

I hope it sticks!!

I'm HAPPY about the news but still very nervous.  Please keep us in your prayers for Monday!

6/22/12 - Med Change

A nurse called today and said to continue on my current meds and ADD progesterone pills (not my favorite if you know what I mean) morning and night.

Uuuuugh...

The nurse also told me a different blood test schedule than was written on my discharge paperwork yesterday. I guess I just go in Tues the 26th and Sunday the 1st. Less needles the better.

Bed rest today. My brother was here in the morning and made me a delicious omelet but he had to go out of town and left around noon. Corey will be home from work in a few hours. I'm super bored.

6/21/12. - Meet The Twins :)

This is a pictures of the two embryos they transferred today...

(and by the way, first blood test is Mon 6/25 next one is Tues 6/26 and they might know by then if I'm pregnant. Then another test 6/28 and OFFICIAL pregnancy test on Sunday 7/1)

6/21/12 - TRANSFER!

Today we had 5, Grade 1 embryos.

We transferred 2 and froze 3!

Now it's time for bed rest :)

6/21/12 - On Track for Transfer TODAY

I just got a call from the fertility center CONFIRMING my transfer today at 2:30pm! 

That is great news because with the last transfer they called me in the morning and told me they needed to reschedule the transfer for the next day because the embryos needed more time to develop.

So I'm thinking they're better qaulity this time!!  I'll post again when I know the exact grade... probably after transfer this afternoon. :)

6/19/12 - Thaw Report

I just got my FIRST embryo thaw update from the Dr!!! They're looking better than last time!! They think I'll be on track for transfer Thurs and not have to push it to Friday! I'm so excited :)

1 is "compacting", it's at the 30 - 40 cell stage and ahead of schedule

9 are at the 8 cell stage

He thinks they'll be at blast by Thursday
