i have been hesitant to write out my thoughts so as not to jinx them. but of the 23 retrieved, 18 eggs were mature and 17 fertilized. i was a total mess waiting for the fertilization report call. thank god everything was ok. and yesterday (day 3 transfer) they pushed it back to day 5 transfer (tomorrow).
i truly feel terrified/anxious/sick/hopeful/happy/ready. in that order of course.
my hope is that if this does not work we will have some embies to freeze, so i can try again with at least one FET cycle. back-to-back IVFs has not been fun and i could use a break from all the needles.
random thoughts...
so tomorrow i will go in at 11:30. so far, i am most nervous about taking the valium. weird i know, but i am so sensitive to most medicines and am afraid i will not be able to walk into the clinic...
i am secretly hoping they will transfer two embryos, but suppose they will only do one. which is fine bc it means it will be a great, strong one.
PIO really sucks. one day it is fine, next my ass is sore for three days. V has been a trooper bc i know blood/guts/needles make him woozy. but i can not fathom how i would do it myself. my nurse did say icing the area for a minute will not make it harder to go in (as i have read) bc it goes so deep...and i have not had a problem with it. but lokoing at that giant needle really gets me nervous.
please. please let this work.

heya,
I can sooo relate on all that you have gone through. The back to back IVF's is so hard. The hormonal side effects. the fear of the fert report...but yayayyaayy for such a GREAT report. I pray this cycle is great like yours:)
