Success after IF

I have been lurking in an attempt to avoid getting excited and getting my hopes up, but I NEED STICKY THOUGHTS! I had FET#2 on Friday. Our last two blastocysts. The original report was that they were 3B/B and 4B/A (from 2008), although on Friday the embryologist told the RE that they had "contracted" and made a point to tell him that while I was waiting there with the speculum in place. The RE said that it's normal for them to contract and expand, but of course, I am worried. Anyway, I am losing my sanity. I really felt optimistic about this transfer - I've even started talking to the blasts in my head like they are my kiddos. I am seriously on the verge of losing my mind. I know - if they both stick, that will be 5 kiddos for me. Crazy. I am a board-certified professional, but I just really love being a mom more than anything else and feel like I love those little guys/girls. Please think sticky thoughts. I hate the thought of a BFN after saving these for nearly 5 years. It's probably an unhealthy attachment. Ugh. Hopefully in a few days I can POAS and get an answer!! Beta isn't until 8/22!
