MORE DRUGS!!!!

yep...

the plan is simply this.

More Drugs.

Higher Dosage.

WIth the idea that we can GET MORE EGGS.

6 eggs, not so great.

100 eggs, not so great either.

10-20 eggs, ahhhhh, that's what we are after.

Therefore, please be prepared for me to be pumped even more full of those luscious hormones.

Lucky y'all!

Putting it away...

Tonight I packed away my medicine box, the photo of the embryos and my 1st round IVF instruction folder...

I'm keeping the photo. Those were our embryos. Why they didn't stick, no one will know. But. I want to keep the photo.

My bathroom counter looks bare without the bucket of meds. It's the 1st day in 2.5 months I'm not having to pop a pill or get a shot. Weird.

Anyhow. I'm heartbroken tonight. I am going to allow myself this emotion.

and it's over...

Yep. Unfortunately this round of IVF was unsuccessful. 1st round failure.

We had a good cry, hugged for awhile, and now will figure out the next plan of action.

Thank you to everyone for the love & support.

Deja yep!

So I've been here...sleepless, restless, full of anxiety.

Except the difference is- this time it's really real.

The numbers tomorrow mean yep or nope.

Or as I have dubbed it-
Sushi and Wine dinner or Chicken Fried and Tater dinner.

It's weird though, I'm not nearly AS anxious. Don't get me wrong, I'm pacing the floor, but I'm not about to snap.

I think I'm also just SOOOO ready to know. Seriously.

Think positive, think HIGH beta, thinks good veins for the blood draw (ouch!)

Love to you all and I appreciate every single txt, call, etc!!!

to POAS or not to POAS...



I bought them.
They are in my drawer.
I haven't really decided yet though if I am going to use.

Beta test- Friday which will be 12dp5dt.
sorry- 12 days past 5 day transfer
or 17 days past ovulation...

Sigh...
