Thank you ALL for the awesome comments and all of you who sent me personal messages today....you guys filled up my inbox with so much love and support and I appreciate it SO much!!! I thought it would be easier to post a message rather than answer you all individually (since I am trying to lay low and stay off the computer...hehehe!)
The transfer went GREAT today!!! We showed up around 11:45, I emptied my bladder, drank about 16 ounces of water and then Heidi showed up for my acupuncture. Matt got to be with me in the acupuncture room, which I really liked! Acupuncture definitely helped me calm down and bring my anxiety levels WAY down!! After acupuncture, we still had about 30 minutes to transfer, so Heidi had me release just a little bit....which was good, Dr. B definitely doesn't like a very full bladder on me and I felt good about the amount that was in there!
Right after that, the embryologist came in to show us pics of the littles! He said they were very hesitant to thaw #3 because #1 and #2 were perfect...perfectly expanded with everything looking just as it should. But, they knew I was insisting on #3 so they did go ahead and thaw 3. #3 was still expanding when the pic was taken since that little guy came out of the freezer a bit later, but the embryologist was sure it would look exactly like the others by the time of transfer.
Soon we were ready for transfer...and as last time...transfer went perfectly smooth...absolutely no glitches and I barely felt a thing! We watched the littles go into my uterus on the ultrasound screen...so cool! I laid there for about 15 minutes while the embryologist and nurse came in with last minute instructions.
Then, I emptied my bladder and was off for acupuncture #2...which was just as awesome!! I was so relaxed by that point....zzzzzzzzzzz.......I loved just laying there for 30 more minutes while my littles snuggled in. Got my blood drawn and was on my way home by 2:00!
I've been resting on the couch for the past few hours and Matt is making me dinner here soon! Thanks babe!! I had only planned to take today and tomorrow off of work, but Dr. B really recommends 48 hours, and since that is right in the middle of the day on Thursday, I don't think I'll go back until Friday now. I'll also have another acupuncture session on Friday...yay!!
It's only been a few hours, but I feel like I am in a good state of mind. The embryologist and Dr. B said they'd be SHOCKED if we didn't get pregnant...especially taking into consideration we are adding in the lovenox to the protocol. I'm trying not to get my hopes up because of last time, but I feel good about it!!!!
Again, thanks for all of your sweet messages....I loved coming home to them!!! Remember that if you aren't following my blog updater, you won't see my posts....so make sure and follow me here http://diaryoftakingsmallstepsupdater.blogspot.com/
Much Love!!!
