Everything went smoothly, no hour delay or having to tense my pelvic floor muscles due to a bladder read to burst like the last FET. Transfer was on time and u/s tech and embryologists were cheerful (same ladies for the last 4 transfers). A new RE did the transfer. Only one thing concerned me was the tech saying to the doctor that "she saw a shadow" and I asked if it had anything to do with my tilted uterus and she didn't respond, so the embryologist smiled and said it was fine and,there was a nice direct line for the catheter. Um, ok. The doctor adjusted the tilt of the table several times until I almost felt like I was on an inversion table before he finally put our embryo in. Eric and I went to Pei Wei for gluten free spicy shrimp. I'm following acupuncturists instructions on eating "warm foods". This has become our little tradition after an FET. As I was waiting for the food and Eric went to sort out our order mix-up (they had brought us tuna sushi instead of spicy shrimp), Someone had satellite radio playing from their car and the song "A Thousand years" came on. I tried not to tear up as I listened to it and a couple was trying to calm their vocal baby at the table next to us.
After lunch, we came home and watched "The Longest Ride". Of course with Nicholas Sparks movies, a box of tissues is always required. This one especially was a tear-jerker. Even more so with all these hormones lol A perfect day with my awesome husband. Our eagerly hatching 6 day PGS normal embryo:
Thinking of you. I have EVERYTHING crossed my friend.
ReplyDeleteThank-you so much! I have been paranoid this cycle, getting blood draws to check my thyroid every 2 weeks. Emailing my RE alot (he has been very helpful and on board this FET). Great news is my Anti nuclear bodies are now negative after almost 10 years of being positive! Dr B was right! Removing the endo with the laparoscopy seems to have done something good! In combination with this higher dose of steroid and also the lovenox.
