TTC after 35

overdue update

I meant to update with my ET news, but had a huge work project that totally kicked my behind, so I was in self-imposed bump exile since Saturday.

We transferred 3 embryos.  We had only planned on transferring two, but the quality wasn't great, and the doctor & embryologist recommended transfering all 3.  So, we'll see what happens...

Funny story from the transfer: I was laying down with my legs "in position" with the nurses, waiting for the doctor.  One nurse positioned a lamp right between my legs. I could feel the heat of the lamp and  joked that having that light was like being in the worst tanning bed ever.   To my surprise, my (very serious) doctor was in the room and started to laugh. 

Thanks to everyone for your support!  You all are the best!
