The endocrinologist wants to wait until my next cycle to start the next IVF cycle....meaning my calculations in the prior post were off by a whole month! The transfer will occur on May 3rd and the due date will be January 19, 2012...two days after my youngest Jocelyn's birthday!
I wonder if they are going to want to transfer more than one embryo this time, or if they are going to transfer two!?! What do you think??? I want to ask, but something is keeping me from asking that particular question, so I haven't and I probably won't.
Well, I hope you are having an amazingly beautiful day!
Loves!
Follow along as I go through the journey of being a first time surrogate mother from start to finish.

The Worst is Over and a New Cycle Begins....
I started my period which is no fun at all, obviously. In fact, on top of the whole thing, I have had flu like symptoms and even missed half a day of work. The pain was miserable and I have been living on 800 mgs of Ibuprofen every 4 hours, per the nurse's instructions. I haven't been able to work out this week and of course only twice last week. I feel like a lump of crap. I'm going today, I don't care how I feel.
Things are not bad, I'm glad that part is over with, so now we can move on! I have started taking the birth control pills and will be receiving a new calendar soon. I tried my hand at calculating the date of the transfer and the due date, although I really don't know what I am doing. The transfer date I got was April 5th, with a due date of Dec. 22nd. We will find out soon enough how close or far I am from the actual dates!
As always, I hope your day is beautiful and that you are doing well.

It's a No-Go on the Embryo.
All laughter aside, I am quite devastated. I knew with the intial Beta numbers that the chances were slim to none, but I still held hope. Now I am to stop taking all meds and wait for aunt flo to show up. We will try another cycle in a few weeks when I start my period. I will keep you informed.

The Test Was a Low Positive...Positive Energy and Prayer's Appreciated! :)
I am sorry that I didn't update this yesterday. I was super busy.
The test came back positive. The Beta numbers are very low and I will be getting another test done on Monday to make sure that they have gone up. I had a dream last night that they were in the 200's for my next test, which is really good. Let's keep those good thoughts and prayers coming please!

The Waiting Game
So I guess you notice that I have been quiet these past few days. I really have been a nervous wreck...and excited too.
Today I went in for my blood draw to check if I am in fact pregnant or not, and now...I'm waiting.
That is all.
