The ER was this morning and so hopefully we get a great fert report tomorrow! They'll call tomorrow between 10 - 2!
Funny story... I SAW our ED there!!! Um, yeah, I actually tried not to look at her, but she was there with her mom. When I went to the front desk with the speciman cup, the receptionist was a biatch though b/c I was trying to be discreet and she was like "EVERYONE NEEDS TO SIGN IN" and wouldn't come talk to me even though I politely waved her over to talk to me. Seriously, I was so mad at her! How am I supposed to know what I have to do with the speciman cup? So, when the nurse came and got us, I complained to her about the recepptionist telling her that my donor was in the waiting room and I was trying to talk to the receptionist discreetly but that she wouldn't come over. Sooo pissed. Anyway, everything after that went well and I can't wait for tomorrow! Thanks for the good vibes!! How's everything with your ED?
Oh my gosh that's CRAZY!!! What a stupid idiot the receptionist was!! How do you feel - was it weird to see the ED? Had you seen an adult photo of her? I have and will only see childhood photos of our donor so I can only guess what she looks like now. As a result I think I've seen her a hundred times. On the bus, out shopping, etc. I'm sure I've not seen her, but I imagine it all the time. I don't know how I would really feel if I did really know.
So you don't find out the "haul" until tomorrow, huh? How are you handling the wait? Are you going nuts?
Not much news here. I had to call the clinic yesterday at 6 when no one had called with an update - grrr. The doc I talked to was really apologetic and said that the nurses had noted a call to me. My cell phone area code is 203, and the area code here is 206, so I bet they called my cell phone number but used the wrong area code, kwim? Anyway, he told me my E2 is 783 and that everything looks great. The donor was seen yesterday and goes back on Monday. That's all I know. I didn't press for more. I still suspect she's going to trigger on Monday, but we'll find out more tomorrow. The waiting is starting to drive me nuts - I'm just ready for this to be done (and hopefully with a happy ending!!!!)
OK, that was a book
Good luck sleeping through the night tonight and getting through work tomorrow! I'll be checking in on you all day!!!
I am a runner, knitter, scientist, DE-IVF veteran, and stage III colon cancer survivor.
Oh yeah, I've have adult and child pics of her so when I saw a young woman there with her mom, I totally knew it was her. PLUS... I know her first name. Our agencies give first names, so when the nurse came to get her, they called her name so that confirmed it.
Honestly, I didn't get a good view of her face b/c I was mortified. I knew that we weren't "supposed" to be in that predicament to see each other so I really backed off and waited in a separate area. More so b/c I didn't want her looking at me wondering if I was the recipient, kwim? HOWEVER, that being said, I was slightly concerned that her nose was bigger than I thought based on some later pics I got of her so I did look at nose (saw her side profile) and I was ok with it, THANK GOODNESS! I asked my dh what he thought and he said she was cute, so that's fine. She totally seemed bubbly with a good personality. The nurse who took us back (who we complained to about the receptionist) said that she loves our donor b/c she's soooo nice and she said she was beautiful, so that made me feel good.
Well, I'm handling the waiting ok today since it's a Sunday and we're busy at my family's house, but tomorrow I'll be anxious all day!!!! I hope they call on the earlier side! I'll post my next update as soon as I get it!
Wow, that's soooooo exciting that you think your donor is triggering tomorrow!!!! You're SOOOOOOOOOO close now! Seriously, it's nice to have you and the others cycling so close so we can go through this together! ET will either be Wed or Friday (3dt or 5dt) but I'm under the assumption it'll be Friday so I took thursday off just to relax before Friday. I want to get my hair colored before transfer since I'm hoping this will work and I'll be pg and won't be able to color in the first tri.
