5 weeks, 1 day and feeling great!

Nothing much to report other than a little bit of sore ta-tas and being tired. I feel great otherwise. I went in yesterday for my second beta. Numbers look great! 19dpo=1523. Still in the range for multiples but only time will tell. My ultrasound is scheduled for Oct. 4th and I don't think I can stand the wait! I also made an appointment with a regular OB for Oct. 11th. I hoping I like her as I didn't have great luck with my other OB, mainly her office staff.

I'm off to play with Raegan and get ready for soccer practice!

OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD!

I got a positive blood test today! I am in utter shock as I have no symptoms really. NOTHING like when I was pregnant with Raegan or the miscarriage from November. I had really lost all hope earlier this week because I was spotting and just not feeling anything. But I got the news this afternoon that I am DEFINITELY pregnant! I can't believe it. My HCG count was 306. So now the next step is another blood test on Tuesday to check HCG and progesterone. Hopefully at that point I will be able to stop the PIO shots. Then a sonogram probably around 7 weeks to see if 1 or 2 of those embryos implanted.



Whhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwww! This has been a long and stressful event but it all turned out great so far!

Transfer is done! Babies are hopefully in place!

Well the transfer yesterday went really well. We transferred 2 Grade B Expanding Blasts, both very excellent quality. Nothing special to the transfer. I did have to lay on the bed for an hour afterwards. Of course I had to pee like no other. The nurse offered me a bed pan. WTH! I'll just hold it!

One embryo was frozen yesterday but it's unlikely that they will freeze anymore today. The lab we used is SUPER picky about freezing. They say that they don't want to freeze something that is not going to turn into a baby. I guess that's great but I was hoping to freeze at least 2. BUT, I was one of the lucky 20% of ladies that even gets to freeze!

So, onto the long wait! I will find out on Thursday, Sept 13th if one or any of the embryos found a place in my body. Everything is crossed! Here is a pic of my embabies! (It's a pic of a pic so ignore the blurriness)

First Progesterone Shot~~~DONE!

Hey everyone. I'm happy to say that the first PIO (Progesterone in Oil) shot is done. I got the shot ready to give then went to ice my butt. Remember I've been saying all along that I didn't think Bryan would be able to give me the shot. Sure enough, he came in the bedroom all red and sweaty saying he couldn't do it. So after talking about it for a second, I picked up the phone and called a neighbor. She came up and gave me the shot. My butt was so numb from the ice that I didn't feel anything. And I got up and walked around for awhile afterwards (as suggested by the nurse). No pain at all! I was so relieved. And after seeing Kim give me the shot and how easy it was, Bryan has assured me that he can do it tonight. We'll see!

I should have an embryo report today to share. GROW BABIES GROW!!!!!!!!!
