Everything went fine yesterday--I am now responsible for 2 grade A blasts....hopefully they are in the process of hatching and getting ready to implant. Any one's RE give them a window for hatching/implanting? Im interested to see if most opinions are the same--I was given anywhere from day 6-8. Any other foods/tricks/yoga poses I can do to make sure these babies implant??=)
Yesterday: I had pre-acupuncture and then transfer was at 11am-then the post acu. Both really made me feel at ease. Mook was able to dress in scrubs and come in the room with me--I just teared up thinking and hoping that the next time I would see him in scrubs would be in the delivery room....The embryologist said that both we were transferring looked "great" and that we will hopefully have 8 to freeze--I should find out in the next few days.
I'm feeling good...most of the time. Of course the nerves set in, and I get worried that I dont feel much going on down there...
Ill be taking it easy at least through tomorrow--just watching movies, reading and lounging. I would do this all the way until beta if I knew it was a guarantee! I would love to be reading Harry right now, but dear sweet Mook ordered it for me (thinking it would sell out) so it wont be here until Wednesday-at least it's something to look forward to!
So here is a cell-phone shot of our babes..."Pearl" and "Jam" Send them good sticky vibes!!=)
I'm keeping everything crossed for you both.
ReplyDeleteSending sticky vibes for sure!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear that you have two nice looking ones in there. :) What is your beta date? When do you plan to POAS if you are? :) Lots of good thoughts are being sent your way!
ReplyDeleteThey're beautiful! Wishing you all the best.
ReplyDeleteCome, blasts!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck!
They look like winners to me! I'll be sending you good thoughts. :)
ReplyDeletehey there Pearl and Jam. be sure to stick around for a while!
ReplyDeletereally, they're lovely. wishing you the best of luck.
technically they can implant anywhere from day 6-12 although 6-10 is more typical and earlier is more likely with assisted hatching. even after implantation it takes a few days for them to begin making measurable amounts of hcg, which causes all the same symptoms as the PIO anyway, so don't torture yourself waiting to feel something.
ReplyDelete8 to freeze is amazing, and pearl and jam are GORGEOUS!! sticky vibes to you all!!!!
Pearl & Jam - I love it.
ReplyDeleteSince you asked, Supta Baddha Konasana (reclining bound angle pose) is a great, non-stressful yoga pose for times like these. Perfect for meditation and opening up energy flow through the pelvic region. Will go perfect with your mellow regimen for the next couple of days. I have a link on my website to these poses. Click on the first link under "Resources" and then click on the pose link to see how it is done.
Wishing you and your kids all the luck in the world.
Sticky vibes are coming your way.
ReplyDeleteHope that the 2ww goes by quickly with a BFP at the end!
Lovely little blasts! I hope you have a great wait!
ReplyDeleteLoved the names! they-re beautiful! Prayign for good news in 2 short weeks
ReplyDeleteThe blasts are beautiful! Now, come on l'il guys, stick around for the long haul! :-)
ReplyDeleteHere's to wishing Pearl and Jam Rock out for a good 40 weeks! Praying and hoping the best for you - farah
ReplyDeleteCool names:-)
ReplyDeleteGreat news about Pearl and Jam! Love the names!
ReplyDeleteCrossing my fingers and doing a chicken dance for you.
They look gorgeous, congrats on the transfer and I'll be hoping they are sticky little buggers!! x
ReplyDeleteSticky baby vibes and prayers to you!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for forging forward so impressively right before I take my turn...you're a hard act to follow! Here's hoping and praying you also forge forward with a lovely BFP with those beautiful blasts...congrats so far! I'll be thinkin of you...
ReplyDeleteStick, Pearl and Jam, stick!! Will you POAS or drive me slowly insane by waiting for the beta?
ReplyDeleteImplantation happens 7 - 10 days past ovulation. I don't know if their stint in the petri dish makes them a little shy and therefore they burrow in closer to the 10 day mark or what. But, since you did a day 5 transfer, it should happen relatively quickly.
Of course, PIO will make you think you are wildly pregnant anyway so any attempt at SymptomWatch2007 will be futile. Just POAS soon and let us know!
I'm sending you tons and tons and tons of hugs and love and luck.
Great news! I'll be thinking positive thoughts for you and the beautiful Pearl and Jam!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that everything went well and praying that you have some to freeze, you did very well sweetie :)
ReplyDeleteHere's to the 2ww and getting great news at the end of it!!
Dont they look sweet :)
ReplyDeleteVibing away for you!
Got everything crossed for you love! GOOD LUCK!!!
My fingers and toes are crossed.
ReplyDeleteI have been following your story and wish you much luck to sticky Pearl and Jam. They look beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSending you positive vibes!
ReplyDeleteWith names like that Pearl and Jam are already winners! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteConsidering that Pearl Jam is one of the only lasting "grunge bands" I think these guys have a good chance! Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteThose are 2 beautiful blasts! Keeping my fingers crossed for you and Mook :)
ReplyDelete"Pearl" and "Jam"...I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful clusters you made!
ReplyDeleteI remember the old "symptom watch 2005 and 2006". The truth of it, though, is that you may not feel much going on. Maybe some cramping here and there. Maybe some spotting. And all don't mean jack. At what day does your RE do your beta?
Sticky vibes heading your way!
ReplyDeleteI so love your embies names! I need names for my quads, but I'm over half way to my beta...seems a bit silly now. So I guess I'll just call them the quads for the moment. Your embies look great! They look a lot different than mine which have all been 3 day transfers (a lot happens between 3 days and 5 days!) Glad you're taking it easy! I'm trying to, but I'm getting antsy! So lots and lots o' luck to you! (and to me too!)
ReplyDeleteOH and FYI, if you're going to POAS, you need to wait until at least 10 or 11 days AFTER your trigger shot was or you'll get a false positive!
ReplyDeletePearl and Jam are BEAUTIFUL! Hope you got lots of rest, enjoy Harry tomorrow. :)
ReplyDeleteyay for being BETA buddies, but maybe I'm a bad one because I POAS already. Glad to read the comment from Lara, perhaps what I'm seeing isn't the HCG trigger...;)
P&PT!
now how gorgeous are THEY?? with names like that you can't go wrong. best of luck, jj!
ReplyDeleteStick embies, stick!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am hoping that this is it for you!
Sending lots of sticky vibes your way!
ReplyDeleteLove the embie names too ;)
XOXO,
Kristen
Good luck! I hope that one or both decides to stick around!
