back from transfer

Our transfer was scheduled for 1:45 pm, so we arrived at 12:45 pm. I started drinking my water, because they say that it's better to have a full bladder for the transfer. They got me all prepared and I was sitting on my comfy recliner chair by 1:00 pm, and so I continued to drink my water. DH also got ready with his scrubs (he looked so handsome:-) ) and hair net and mask. by 1:45 pm I had a pretty full bladder and there was no sign of the doctor yet. A doctor was supposed to come by to tell us how many embryos there were and what was going to happen. Also the embryologist had to stop by... 2:15 pm... nothing. I was about to explode. I asked one of the nurses how much longer it would be. She said "sorry we are running late, it'll be 10 more minutes" so I decided (nurse said it was OK) to half empty my bladder. I was afraid to pee too much, so I probably only emptied it 1/4 lol. Once the doctor came to talk to us I wanted to pee again, but I decided to hold it.... after all, it was only another 20 minutes (transfer only takes about 5 minutes and then they make you lay on your back for about 10 minutes. The transfer itself was pretty good. I didn't feel too bad cramps or sore. They transferred 2 embryos back and told us they will let us know how the other 3 are doing on Thursday so that we know how many they'll freeze.

This is the picture they gave us of the two embryos they transferred. It's so weird, but I already love them so much and just want the best for them!



Pregnancy test (first beta) is scheduled for August 6th. It's going to feel like an eternity!!!
