Miracles, Part 3
I actually did manage to sleep last night, but 6am I woke up. And when I say woke up, I mean my eyes popped wide open and my heart was beating loudly. No chance of sleep at all. I just layed there, thinking about the phone call that was yet to come. I figured they would call after 8, so another 2 hours to wait. It doesn’t matter what type of news you expect or hope for, just the fact that you will be getting some news is so anxiety-ridden. Always the fear.
I tossed and turned for 2 hours, playing with my blackberry a little bit. Den was half awake, too, but still managed to drift off to sleep time and again.
At 8 Den got up to go to the bathroom and start the shower. I layed in bed waiting. The phone rung.
It was someone from the lab, a perky, young female voice. “You will be doing a 5-day transfer on Tuesday, come in at 10:30 for an 11am transfer.”
I thanked her and hung up. I, errr, forgot to ask how many we had or how they were looking, or anything of the sort. I just said, “Oh wow! Okay! Thank you!!!”
And then I walked over to the bathroom door and knocked. “Hey Den? I think I’m just going to go back to bed.”
“No, you aren’t!” he shouted back through the door. “You’re taking a shower!”
“Nah,” I replied. “I’m just going to go back to bed.”
“… Why?”
“Because we’re doing a 5 day transfer!”
Of course then he asked how many we have and I said “I don’t know” and he was a little grouchy with me, LOL.
So we crawled back into bed for a little while, smiling at the ceiling. We have at least 4 top-grade embryos. We’re going to blast. We’re doing a 5-day transfer. Wow. Just… wow.
Oh, and this quickly solves the question of how many to put back – for a woman under 35 they only recommend transferring 1 blast. And it has a higher pregnancy rate than 1 day-3.
We’re going to blast, baby!!!
Great news!!! Keep it coming!
Crying… And grouchy along with Den, LOL.
Wonderful, wonderful news. And I think the statistics are about a 50% pregnancy rate with single embryo transfer at day 5. Wheee! So happy for you.
Ohhh that is awesome – such wonderful news – Cant wait to hear!
Ahhh, sweet girl, I am so happy for you! What wonderful news!
Whoo hoo! I got chills reading this!
I’m so glad you’re going to blast!
Wee! And frankly, I like that they didn’t say anything and you didn’t ask. Why bother? It will work or it won’t, right? So let’s go with Work!! Hope you can sleep a bit before Tuesday.
