The clinic called with my dates! So long as the PGS results come back (next week) that we have at least one normal embryo, the dates will be:
Lining check - Monday 2/15
Start progesterone - Wednesday 2/17
Transfer - Monday 2/22
This will be our 8th transfer! Transfer #8! I wonder how few women have gone through so many transfers. The women at the clinic often comment that my folder is one of the thickest they have seen!
About Us
- Lauree and Mike
- After an 8 year battle with infertility and countless struggles, our family is finally complete. This blog chronicles the journey it took for us to start and build the family we always wanted. Background on the blog (started in 2012, just days before I found out the embryo transfer for our son worked).... I decided to start a blog after realizing I have only been able to make it through my TWW's (two week waits) with the help of Google and with the openness of other women suffering from infertility sharing their own stories and giving others hope. I have time and time again found my exact symptoms on other women's blogs and felt an overwhelming sense of calmness they provided me. I thought it was time to pay it forward and hopefully provide this same thing to other women on their own journeys.

Embryo update
Praise the Lord! ALL FOUR EMBRYOS expanded and were still hanging in there today! So all 4 were biopsied and refrozen (revitrified). We should have the PGS NGS results next week!!!

Let this FET cycle commence!
AF arrived on time! CD 1 today for a potential transfer #8 (FET #6)! Which is cool because CD 1 falls on the first of the month so it will be really easy to remember what CD I'm on. I started estrogen patches today. Will start vag estrogen in a couple days when things settle down down there. lol
Coincidentally, they will thaw/biopsy my 4 embryos today for PGS! They will call me later to let me know how it went. I should have the results next Tuesday or Wednesday!! I pray there are 2 normal (euploid) embryos. 0 would be tramatic. 1 would scare me. 3 would be okay but I'd wonder what to do with the 3rd one. 4 would actually be amazing but statistically almost impossible.

Thaw/Biopsy date set!
Baby steps (no pun intended).... but we finally have our thaw and biopsy date set for our 4 remaining frozen embryos (to have them PGSed). It will be this coming Monday 2/1! The lady mentioned they'd send the cells to Genesis either that day or the next day. Then, give or take a day or two, 7 days later we should know the results.
I'm on cycle day 26 today, so my period should start in 3-5 days.
I am having weekly uterine massages starting tomorrow with Danielle of Momassage. This should help the blood flow to my ol' ute. I had some sessions with her before our transfer last June. Implantation was at least "successful" that attempt, so hopefully it will be with this coming attempt as well!
I am not doing acupuncture this attempt as I did it for over a year between 2014-2015 and we all know how that worked out. :( Plus it was super duper expensive and very time consuming. And, after a month or so of starting it, the sessions really never left me feeling super duper relaxed like they once had. So I'm over that. I will definitely do acupuncture sessions the day of transfer (before and after) but nothing until then.
Think that's about it! I'll update you guys when anything happens!
