Egg Transfer Today - 3 Embies Transferred...now we wait....
The egg transfer took place today and I was relieved to hear that all 3 embryos looked good. Due to my age, the RE recommended we transfer all 3 which we did. Since this was our first IVF we were very surprised when they handed us photos of the embies as well as a sonogram picture (whcih really shows thing) of where they placed them. DH was with me for the transfer and I think he feels more of a part of it now. The RE has me on 3 days of bedrest but DH is trying to make things even more stringent. He was trying to talk her into not letting me drive for a couple of weeks since we have sports cars that are low to the ground and you can feel every bump. Thank God she found this funny (although DH was very SERIOUS) explaining that they aren't just going to fall out. Since we have gotten home, DH has been driving me crazy! When I get up to use the restroom, he runs into the bedroom and says that I am walking to hard to get there or using to much force or suggesting that I should walk slower. Dear God! I swear, if he comes in here one more time with one of those stupid comments, I am seriously going to hurt him... I'm already bored out of my mind. I'm not much of a t.v. person and sitting in one area for long causes me to fidget. Plus I keep thinking that there are a number of doctors (or so I have read) that don't recommend any bedrest, that the embies do better with moving around and getting the blood flowing. Plus I haven't really felt that great today. I'm still feeling down and in the dumps from the BFN's that some of my DS friends have received. I keep trying to remind myself that it will happen...for all of us, just not always at the same time and/or when we specifically want it to. I hope everyone has a great weekend...
