Transfer went great!

It has been such a busy weekend. I had the transfer done on Thursday and spent the day at Ashlea's house, we had graduation on Friday, a wedding on Saturday and everyone came over Sunday for Mothers Day. I am usually a couch potato so I am not used to all of this activity.

The important stuff: The transfer went great. As I mentioned before, Ashlea had 4 frozen embryos and they were going to thaw all four and transfer the best two. Ashlea agreed to this because she has always had about a 50% thaw rate so we thought we would only have two anyway. Well, all 4 survived the thaw. She started with two 7 cell and two 6 cell, after the thaw she has three 7 cell and one 6 cell and they chose the best two to transfer. Now we play the waiting game.

We will not be taking any home pregnancy test before the beta test. Ashlea is coming over the morning of the 22nd, I will have the blood test and we are going to do a HPT that morning.

So far in this journey, everything has gone better that we thought it would. We joke every time we have something done that once again, it has exceeded our expectations. Now we just need the most important part to exceed our expectations so it will all be worth while. Fingers are crossed, prayers are floating around everywhere, we just need that little bambino (or two) to stick.

    1. Thanks Shannon! I have been following your daughters blog and am familiar with her story. I know that both our daughters will be wonderful Moms and it will happen for them soon.
