Trouble TTC

Good luck at ET today, sbrowns08!

I hope those LO(s?) snuggle in tight for the long haul.  Can't wait to hear how ET went, and how many you decided to transfer!

And ladies, let's all send her some good hunker-down-and-snuggle-in-embie vibes today and over the next few days so they implant well...  I really believe that the more people think good things, the better the outcome! 

P.S. sbrowns -- At the risk of sounding crazy/cheesy, talking and singing to the LOs really helped me get through the past week and a half, whatever my beta result today.  I highly recommend picking a special song for them and singing it or at least listening to it every night :) 

Severe MFI. Me: supposedly all clear but eggs showed vacuoles.

IVF #1 January 2012, ER Jan 14th: 34R, 27M, 23F. Day 3: 18 embies still strong. Day 5: zero "good," one "fair," the rest "poor." Transferred 3. None made it to blast or to freeze. Jan 28: BFN.

Lucky IVF #2: Transferred two beautiful day three embies on St. Patrick's Day. BFP on HPT 7dp3dt. Beta 1 (14dpER)=106; Beta 2 (16dpER)=140; Beta 3 (19dpER)=264! First u/s 4.17.
