Transfer/Post-Transfer
So we transferred two embryos yesterday. The transfer was kind of a blur because they give you valium, but the doctor said the embryos were "early"...not really sure what that means but he said it made our chances for success a little lower, but not by too much. Also, the transfer hurt A LOT...the doctor said something about there being a kink in my cervix...the pain had me a little worried...hopefully it won't impact the implantation process! The transfers I had last year didn't hurt at all...
My clinic has me on bedrest until tomorrow morning...slept most of yesterday and have been watching movies and bad TV (Jersey Shore, for instance. Wow, that show is BAD. Or maybe I'm just too old to appreciate it.) I'm staying with a dear friend of mine and she is taking such good care of me...she even read up on what foods are good to help with implantation and is making sure I get servings of each (pineapple, walnuts, sweet potatoes, etc.)
AND we got a call from the clinic today that there are embryos left over that are good enough to freeze...I've never had that happen before so I am so excited. If this transfer doesn't work out it's not the end of the line for us, you know? That is such a relief.
Home tomorrow (assuming I can make it over the passes...Colorado is being hit crazy-hard with snow).
Thanks to everyone for the positive thoughts and good wishes!
