it's a go!

I went in today for a lining check and another weekly blood draw and IT'S A GO! My lining was at 8... they like 6-8. Last time we struggled to get it to 6.5-7. This time it is way easier for my body. My blood levels have been so good that I am not on one additional med to help thicken my lining this time. I am so super happy about that because that med was nasty to my body. So as of now I start my big mama shots and pre transfer meds on saturday and don't need to go back to the clinic till transfer day!! Nothing holding us back from a transfer on Feb 9th... that's 10 days (but who's counting!)

back on the wagon

I am back on the wagon... the medication wagon that is. I never thought that I would be excited to stab my booty with a 1 1/2 inch long needle but I am. I am that excited because I know that means we are getting closer to transfer day. I had a baseline ultrasound on Thursday and my lining and uterus look as they should and started Estradaol shots on Fridays and Tuesdays to help plump up my uterus. I continue to get accupuncture once a week and I am feeling very positive about this time around.
18 days and counting till transfer!

We have a plan!

Yes, we finally have a plan. No more up in the air waiting.  When I went in for my last lab draw I got the call that the results were negative!! That is exactly what we needed. Then the confusion started. One person said one timeline, another said something totally different and so on and so forth. But it doesn't matter now because I was able to get into see the doctor today and she gave a go ahead. All parts of my uterus are looking good and healed and ready to get pregnant again.
I received my calendars for this month and next that detail all the med stop and start dates and lab draws and ultrasounds. I made all my appointments through Feb. so full force ahead... and I am excited again!
So now the plan looks like this:  meds, meds, acupuncture, and more meds to prep my body for another transfer of two healthy embryos. To which is planned for Feb. 9th. So positive thoughts and wishes are welcome!
