    My RE's explanation was that it keeps your ute from cramping/contracting. It sure does! Those transfers were the easiest procedures that I've had done at the RE's office.

    This. Anything with a speculum is generally painful for me, and I was amazed at transfer when the speculum didn't cause any pain. I said to the doctor, "Wow, I wish I could get Valium for Pap smears," and the female doctor, female nurse and female embryologist all nodded and said, "We should ALL get Valium for Pap smears."

    Ohhhhh a 4ab! Nice! Our baby came from a lowly 4bc...so you've got some great odds there. Sorry about losing one. It was a little embie and it was yours. How awesome to still have 4, but like ball.and.chain said, here's hoping you don't need any of those!

    @Karlamo - I'm glad it went well!  I'm sorry that you lost one.  When I did my FET, I was so anxious about whether or not they were going to survive the thaw.  Even a half hour before the procedure I was estimating/obsessing that at least one must have survived because otherwise they would have called me.  Thank goodness for that Valium!

    The next importation question is...will you POAS and when?  I can't be the only one wondering! 

    Haha. I was hoping you all would let us skate by on this one. This being our 16th cycle, yes 16 times; we have sort of a routine down. I'll POAS the day before the beta so we know where we stand and have time to process it in our own way.
    Beta is not until end of next week!! The weekend we will either be celebrating or drinking.
