TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

Transfer tomorrow and I'm a nervous wreck!

DH can't go with me because there are 2 other guys out on vacation and work wont let him off for a few hours for the appointment. So I've gotta choose the little embryos all by myself.  I'm just scared to be honest. DH and I have been through alot in the last 2yrs of TTC and IVF has been a long emotional process and I'm so terrifed it won't work.  As much as I wanna say I'm staying grounded and not letting my imagination run wild I'd be lying.  My hopes are so high right now it scares me.  I'm scared I wont get pregnant or if I do get pregnant it will end up being M/C #4 and I don't know if I could handle that right now. 

I'm sorry for this rant.  I'm trying so hard to stay positive and calm but all of these thoughts are going through my head right now and I didn't know where else to put them!

    Thanks girly!  My mom is driving me up there because I have to take a Valium before and they dont want me driving after the transfer but I'm not gonna have her come in with me for the actual transfer!  I really appreciate your support and all your thoughts and prayers. Thank you! :-)

  • Good luck tomorrow, hon. It is really nerve-wracking. Won't the embryologist choose the embryos for you? Ours did. I would have hated to have to make that choice!
  • I hope is going/went smoothly. Our embryologist chose them for us. *fingers crossed that everything goes according to plan*. Good luck!
  • Wait, they let you choose the embryo?  We were not given a choice they just said we are only transferring one and it is this one and they put it up on a screen for me to see. 

    You really need to stay calm.  See if they give you some happy drugs and take those to calm down.  I know it is hard, but being stressed about it won't help matters.  I am sure it will all work out.  I hope some family comes with you.  Hugs hon, b/c I know how hard it is, but stay calm!

    When I was there for the retrieval the Dr. said when I come back for the transfer they will have photos of the best embryos and DH and I will pick the two to transfer?  I have Valium to take an hour before the transfer and luckily my mom is driving.  I'm doing better today and I'm trying really hard to relax!

  • Thank you ladies so much!  the transfer yesterday went very smoothly and I have a print out of two perfect little embryos! The Dr. said one of them was even starting to hatch already which is a great sign.  I spent most of yesterday sleeping because the Valium knocked me out!  I go Tuesday for b/w to test my progesterone levels and then next Saturday is the pregnancy test!  Although I'll probably start to POAS Thursday Embarrassed
