BFN

Well, as expected it was a BFN.

I tested at home this morning, so we already knew (well, we knew anyway), and the hospital confirmed it.

We now need to wait for a follow up appointment to discuss.....
the nurse couldn't make us one today bc the appointment clerks are on holiday as it's Good Friday, so they will post us one.

We can try again after 3 periods (my upcoming period counts as number 1)

Think it's over........

Well yesterday was 10 days post transfer (12 dpo) and I started spotting last night.

I think it's over.

3 Days Post Transfer (5 days post collection)

Well, yesterday, assuming that our embryos are still developing, they became blastocysts.

So they could be implanting as I type.

I had some cramping yesterday, mainly in the late evening, which the sensible part of me says could well be bc the Dr inserted a tube into my uterus and my uterus didn't like it :-)
Or, it could be implantation, or it could be pre-period rumblings.

I also felt a little nauseous late at night, but I had eatten McDonalds and a chocolate muffin...

Only time will tell.....

Embryo Transfer

Why is it that the only time we've seen male medical staff members it's been at the 'business end' :-)

Seriously the Spannish (?) Dr today was lovely.

The Embryo Transfer went well.

We transfered one 3 cell embryo and one 4 cell embryo.

The 3rd didn't make it, but that's fine, better to happen before transfer.

Now I am lying in bed taking it easy.

3 is the Magic Number (I hope)

We have got 3 Embryos.

Embryo Transfer is at 1.45pm tomorrow.

Potatoes

Last night I dreamt about Potatoes....

Potatoes growing little shoots with little potatoes on the shoots....

We have 5 Eggs.

Just a quick update.

We got 5 eggs out of the 8 big follicles.

They will ring me tomorrow morning and let me know how many eggs fertilised (Gosh, I hope we get some).

Then if I have it right, if we just had 1 or 2, then they will do the Embryo Transfer on Friday. If we have more, then they'll watch them on Friday and decide which are the better embryos and transfer them on Saturday (I think).

I don't feel too bad, I have a fuzzy head, but I have slept this afternoon. And I have period type pains and a bit of spotting.
