Superstitious!

     I am a superstitious person. So with transfer originally set for Sept 11th I was for sure thinking we'd get twins or no baby. That day with all it's meaning is just not when I wanted to transfer. I know silly. Then transfer was pushed back a day so I felt better about a single baby! Transfer was completed Sept. 12th. The dads were here for the transfer, same as the third transfer last time. We did lunch before, just like before, and I had a lucky penny in my hand for transfer that my mom had found on the last successful transfer. I know it all sounds really silly but I figure hey it can't hurt right!?! They transferred 2 good looking embryos into my nice fluffy uterus! So now we wait, I swear this period of waiting is the hardest. And as before I will not be doing a home pregnancy test early. We will wait till September 23rd to get results. As tempting as it is to find out early... I hate to hear bad news twice. I would rather hear it once. But this time I hope this journey is a first time success!
     I did my two princess/ rest days after transfer and they were boring. It always sounds wonderful to be bedridden for two days but man it is hard. Just thinking of all the things I could be doing or should be doing is tempting but I was a true couch princess and followed my doctors orders well. This time around my kids know what we are doing so they were very supportive and helpful. I used that to my full advantage for sure. They were super good sports about me not being able to do anything fun with them but we did have a lot of snuggle time watching their shows and movies.
I also had lots of friends and family continually checking in on me and making sure I didn't need anything and that was amazing. I love the support that my friends and fam show. They are seriously the best!!
