Twin zygotes!

Thanks so much for all the good wishes. Seems like you all helped make the night a good one for my little zygotes. Two of them fertilized! We'll find out about their quality tomorrow at the time of transfer.

So that still means that we might not do the transfer. Still plenty of time for things to go wrong.

Timed sex was really hard, and lead to more late night tear fests than dh or I care to remember. But is ivf better? Hm. That is a tough one.

While I knew this would be stressful, I honestly didn't really get why so many people choose not to do this again. It is REALLY hard on the emotions. I surprise myself at how edgy I am. And I don't just mean edgy. I mean, I could tear off someone's head with my bare hands edgy.

  1. YEAH!!!

    That is awesome. I'm very glad to hear you have 2 growing away.

    I hear you on the timed sex=crying (I've tried to block it out), and how the ivf is it's very own flavor of shit sandwich -- both suck, and in my view it's basically a choice between which will have the greater chance of working with both me and my husband ending up alive and with all of our limbs intact.

    But right now, I'm trying to think calming thoughts for you and hoping all continues to go well.

  3. Awesome! I hope they keep growing and growing.

    I don't think I've ever been as stressed as I was during those twenty four hours between finding out they fertilized and making sure they made it through the night. Treat yourself well today.
