taken as a self-portraitAfter a few minutes, the one with the bad egg retrieval experience arrived.
We were called in for our ET chat with Dr V. Of those 4 embryos, 2 had stopped dividing today and were both still at 6 cells. One was at 8 cells and one at 9 cells so we're transferring those two.
Went down to the theatre and got started with drinking all the water. One of the ladies jumped the queue so when she was done it was my turn.
Dr J was there and I told him, "please be gentle with me" to which he says, "am I not always gentle?"
Yes, he actually is. His scans are the best because they are not painful in the least.
Anyway, he was BRILLIANT (no pain - last time it was sore when they tried to put the catheter into my cervix) and I pronounced him the BEST at doing this. He laughed but I think he was pleased.
During the procedure he kept saying, "relax" and I said, "I can't" so he said, "nonsense, you can do anything you put your mind to". I like that strong talking so I started relaxing.
Anyway, I am now pregnant until proven otherwise.
Came home after sorting out the payment at the clinic and slept for four hours, woke to do a teleseminar and then went to sleep again with no problems.
this was great news! 2 with so many cells! GL!
ReplyDeletenice to hear that the whole transfer experience was a breeze. I was really relaxed at mine because they gave me valium right before. I loved every minute of the ride. ;)
yeah! great news!! :)
ReplyDeleteNow Clio, if there should ever be a next time (let's pray that's not necessary), I will ask them about the valium - sounds like a splendid idea!
