ICLW

Welcome! Welcome!

Ok...tomorrow is transfer day! Yay!!! I'm really hoping that the embies look fantastic and that we'll have some to freeze. If they're not fantastic, I feel better knowing that Dr. B is ok with transfering 3. I'm sure that some of you think I'm crazy, but I really feel like this gives us a better chance. Hopefully, we won't need to do the 3, because we will have 2 that are FAN.TAS.TIC!!!

I scheduled a massage for tomorrow morning. I decided against doing the acupuncture this time. Mainly because I feel like the goal is to be relaxed during the transfer and last time, I think the acupuncture actually made me anxious. C was waiting for me outside, and then I had another session after and all I wanted to do was go home and get on the couch. I love my massage therapist, and I always leave there feeling really relaxed and great.

So, that's the plan!!!! And tomorrow, I will start my countdown. And just as a warning, this time I plan to document my "symptoms" during the two week wait.

Twelve!!!

That's right, peeps! Twelve embryos. I had a freak out this morning and called to see if we don't get good quality embryos (we had a problem with the second cycle, but not the first), if the RE would okay putting 3 in instead of 2. He said yes! So, all in all, I'm feeling pretty damn good about all of this!!!

On another note, I am super bloated! I spoke with the nurse this morning and she said its just because they got so many eggs. I've been downing water all day, and hope she's right, and that I'm not headed towards OHSS!!! Right now, I look pregnant, or like I am full of gas! It's pretty uncomfortable, but I'm hoping it gets better.

I go in Thursday at 1:45pm for my transfer!!!

Our Embryos

Six! That's how many eggs fertilized! Yay! We only had 5 last time, so I'm really excited. I go in on Saturday at 10:15. I'm trying to decide if I should do the acupuncture. Last time I went for a massage after, but I'm thinking about the acupuncture this time.

I'm really feeling good about this, and I have made a decision that I will not do any HPT's. NONE. Last time I did one about 3 days before my beta and it was negative. I didn't even tell C, but I was expecting a negative on Beta day. My beta was 191. Then I took an HPT just to see what a positive test looked like. After all the tests I'd taken that had been negative, I just wanted to see a positive.

I've been missing Wyatt a lot lately. Monday the 15th was my due date. I'm trying to think of something nice to do for him that day. I haven't figured it out yet, but I'm sure I will.
