Waiting...

This 2ww might seriously kill me! I'm getting impatient and it's only been 2 days! I've been a little uncomfortable cramping a little but mostly pressure but I think it's still from the retrieval. I am having severe leg and foot cramping. I think I need to change my milk from skim to 2% or vitamin D for better nutrients. I already drink plenty of water and take magnesium supplements. Tomorrow the embryologist will call with the news of how many embryos we will have in the freezer. So far as of wednesday we have 3. I hope more make it in! Anyway off to date night w my husband and picking up my car I just got 4 months ago from the dealer. They had to take apart the engine. Thank goodness for powertrain warrenties!

Transfer complete!

Had the transfer yesterday. It went pretty smoothly. We transferred two eggs. One was an 8 cell A- and the 2nd was 10 cell B+. It was very very exciting. First beta 5/8/12. I will probably test before then because thats 14 days after transfer and a lot of people test around 10 days. So I will probably test Cinco De Mayo 5/5/12 on my own. I really hope one sticks!

Egg Retrieval

Yesterday was my egg retrieval, it went well. We got 21 eggs. I'm still pretty sore though. I got a call from our guy in the lab and he said there were 12 mature eggs and 11 fertilized. He's not sure about quality as of yet. Transfer is Wednesday and I'm really really nervous. I can't wait though! I can't believe it's only two days away!

On the crazy train...

I'm right in the middle of my IVF cycle. I'm on a Ganirelix, Menopur, Follistim protocol. They upped my Menopur at my monitoring appointment this morning. No side effects as of yet really, just hot flashes. Dr. S did a biopsy at my first appointment and it came back as an endometrial polyp. We may have to end up freezing our eggs, doing an D&C and then do the transfer. Very frustrating- doing all this work and then having to wait for the fun stuff. I hope the next week goes smoothly. I've had every moment of the month of April filled with stuff to do. Can't wait until May for a break. Between back injections, getting my wisdom teeth out, IVF, 3 baby showers, 3 birthday parties, and work it's becoming too much. I can't wait until I can finally blog that I'm pregnant!
