❄️ We’re doing it! ❄️

We’re doing it!

We got the schedule for the transfer, it’s happening on Wednesday. That means bedrest on Thursday and Friday, light activity Saturday. It also means we started progesterone shots last night! (Like a champ)

I’ll continue the cocktail of vitamins- which have my nails growing like crazy! We will transfer on Wednesday and keep doing the estrogen patches, progesterone shots, more progesterone and all the vitamins.

So the patches, they worked beautifully! My first lining check was 8.3 mm, which “beats” my final lining check from last round that was 7.34. My second lining check was only two days later and I measured 9.4! Annnd there’s a middle layer of lining that was there and visible and that’s what we want for a smooth transfer.

So these patches are great- they are also expensive and of course insurance covers 0% of anything. Eight patches costs about $200 and lasts me two weeks. If the transfer works, I’ll be wearing the patches for the first 10-12 weeks. Soooooo if you’re interested in doing a t-shirt order, we are getting that started!

So after the transfer, there will be no news. There is a two week wait- dreaded in the infertility community- where you just stay busy. You don't make plans, you don't dream dreams, you just distract yourself with the present and try not to think about the results too much. 

After the two week wait, we will be cautiously optimistic and share news when we are comfortable. So just keep assuming that it worked because thats what we will do! <3
