Transfer Day

Today was the day! Transfer has been completed.
I started my morning off with some acupuncture, which was relaxing and calming. Exactly what I needed before my transfer.
At the doctors office I had to wait almost a hour with a full bladder before we were actually ready for transfer.  The embryologist said our little embryo look great and she is hoping this one will be the one.  Which was good news since it was rated as a 3 quality when it was frozen, which isn't great.
But since the embryo thawed out so nicely we are more hopeful.
Also, my doctor said that I should not be on bed rest. I need to resume my usual activity.  So that's good. A little hard to do with Alex around even with help from my mom.
So now it's the dreaded two week wait!  Hoping for a much better outcome then the last two attempts.  Going back for acupuncture on Friday for my relaxing treatment. Updates to follow as I get them!

2 Weeks Away

Only a couple more weeks until the transfer. Wanted to post an update even though not much interesting has been happening. Had another hysterectomy, while the experience wasn't great the results were good. Nothing out the ordinary.  My thyroid blood results came in with my level being a little low. And I had to get more blood drawn to test for thyroid antibodies and that test came back normal so for now thyroid is not an issue.
Everything is progressing along as it should. I go back in for my lining check and blood draw next week. Hopefully everything is good as well. I'm so ready for it to be the 21st.
I have been continuing to go to acupuncture. and that seems to helping control my stress and keep me calm. And an early Valentine's date this weekend is something fun to look forward to that doesn't include needles.
