TTC after 35
what an amazing and scary process...
All three embies keep growing! I have one, 2-cell and two, 4-cells which he said are normal numbers for this early stage. We'll do a day three trx tomorrow! All three are goin' in. I can't believe it! What an amazing, scary process.
Yesterday was our first real progesterone shot. The only other thing we'd done is the trigger. It's not fun but in a way I'm glad for it. It really is the only time DH has been truly essential to the process (except for the squirt!). I want this to be OUR process, afterall. And so we bond over my butt...my big, fat, bruised butt with two smiley faces drawn on in permanent marker. Good times.

About me: A pixie in the city, 41, TTC #1 since May 2010, married 18 years.
Diagnosed with, surgically removed, endometrioma Aug.2010 Sept 2010 IUI #1=BFN, Oct=cyst/bfn, Nov 2010 IUI #2 = bfn. Had to postpone IUI #3 b/c of a cyst natural=BFN. Skipped IUI #3, decided to go for IVF. Found/removed uterine polyps Jan 2011. IVF cancelled, no follicles. IVF #2: 3 great embies put in on Easter Sunday = BFN. Hoping for another chance at IVF in July. TTC is NOT for wimps.

Hello Pix! What great news!!! I am so happy for you!! What a crazy couple weeks this is!!
I feel very lucky that I did not have to do the shot in z booty....apparently my RE stopped that about a year ago, instead I did two Crinone gel inserts, which I already was doing, one before and one after the transfer....now just once in the a.m.
I wish you and yours a wonderful, positive transfer!! Fingers and toes crossed!!!
