Nervous for my FET

Hi ladies....

I'm having a bit of anxiety over my FET this Thursday. I've been pregnant so many times, I'm frightened over this transfer actually working! If it works, it means I have to deal with wiping after using the bathroom... I don't think I can handle seeing blood, even if it's "old blood" and everything is okay. I'm frightened of the transfer NOT working and having only one embryo to use as backup. Ugh. 

So I guess what I need to hear from you ladies.... How did you mentally prepare yourself for the big day? Were you nervous or excited?  Any words of wisdom to pass on?

Thanks in advance, I don't know what I'd do without this group!!!!!! 

 

BFP #1 - chemical pregnancy, natural miscarriage at 7 weeks on 2/11/12 BFP #2 - u/s at 8 weeks showed a tiny fetal pole measuring at 6 weeks, heart rate slow at 94bpm. Natural miscarriage a few days later on 4/15/12 August 2012- Diagnosed with pancreatic divisum, September - ERCP w/stent placement. Fingers crossed this was the issue! Doc gave the go-ahead to start trying again. BFP #3 - Chemical pregnancy ending a few days after Thanksgiving 2012. Clearly my pancreas was not the issue. Doc told us to try one more time. BFP #4 - Chemical pregnancy ending in January 2013. Now I'm pissed. February- meeting with RE. Test results show I have a low egg reserve and DH has severely messed up sperm. Docs are quite confused as to how we're getting pregnant to begin with. Let the IVF games begin!! April - stim time!! 7R, 6F via ICSI, 5 made it to day 5, 3 look "good enough" to be sent for PGS testing. We are now the proud owners? Parents? Of 2 healthy frozen embryos. June - ugh. Lupron. So much Lupron. And Aygestin, and Estrogen, and Progesterone suppositories. Things are going in to my body every way possible! July 25- scheduled for our first FET. Aaand huge fail. All of the estrogen gave my pancreas a good old fashioned hissy fit. Long story short, moving on to gestational carrier.

  • JosieCat you've got this! These are your perfect verified with PGD embryos they can do this. It's possible that they never could before. Nothing about this embryo is the same as those past pregnancies, and your lining is "beautiful", remember! You are ready and your embryo is ready. It's the perfect combination. It's time!

    *New RE* Sonohystrogram and hystereoscopy done in Feb.

    You are so right! Cry it out, then pump yourself up, then repeat! I think posting the anxiety here always helps, so if you see spotting at all, come post here about it and we will put your mind at ease. This is a different pregnancy, so spotting will occur for entirely different reasons! Expect to be normal and I'm sure it will pan out. You are going to rock this. I can feel it!
