I'm PREGNANT!

I'm going to go buy a test so I can see it for my self! Sat. will be my second beta but I feel good for now!
The dr. office left me two messages!! Why two?? I can't decide if thats good or bad but I have 10 min. until I can leave and about 40 min. until I'm home to listen to them!!! Its killing me!

and today it is

My beta is today and I held out on testing at home. I really don't have a feeling either way....I have some "symptoms" which could either be in my head or a side effect of something I'm taking. I don't have any bad signs either, no major cramping, no spotting, etc. So I will find out at 4:30 today when I get home from work and listen to the message with dh. 9 more hours of hope!

one would think

that since I've been out of work and on bed rest I might have some time to recap the ER or ET or anything in between. I guess I just don't know what to say. I started to over stimulate so my dr. put me on bed rest. The first 3 days I felt so terrible I didn't care or want to do anything. The next day was my transfer, I was pretty sore after that. My ovaries are 10 cm and should be 3. She was very concerned and almost canceled my transfer. With only 4 embryos I was just too afraid to not transfer anything. So we settled on one. She said I was too high risk for OHSS to risk putting 2 back in and ending up with twins. I went back in this morning and one ovary is 8 cm and the other is 10. So, more bed rest! I'm drinking my smart water and taking doxtinx (sp? and I'm not getting up to look at the bottle). I'm feeling better but I can't take any risks. I really want this pregnancy to take, more than anything. And it doesn't help that only one of our embryos made it to freeze :( I'm really lucky that I have an understanding boss!

So, maybe later tonight or tomorrow I will recap the ER or ET and the silly and dumb stuff my husband has been doing, including tell the RE right before I was taken in to the ER about his head aches, like she was going to do something for him!

ET

at 11:30 tomorrow! We have 3 maybe 4 very good embryos!

4

only 4 fertilized. I am very worried that they won't make it to the day 3 transfer! I am trying to remain positive, this is 4 more fertilized eggs then we have ever had!
