9 weeks until transfer #2

Well... Hoping to get a new calendar tomorrow with a new time line that ends with transfer Friday 1/24/2014. The good old witch (aunt Flow) arrived yesterday and although I have no cramping at all, she is quite.....heavy in her visit. At least I know my lining really did thicken up. I stopped all meds last Wednesday; and Thursday through Saturday night were impossible. Not only was I constantly sweating all night, Brooke is teething again and has not been sleeping well herself. So the NC said DR D wants to add in one more injectable med to the process, but she wouldn't say which one. I have a phone meeting with him on 12/4/13. I am still so bummed that this first try didn't work. Its probably much better timing to get pregnant in January though :) I am much more guarded however. Have I broken down the donor egg thing?? Well I will again, 12 retrieved, 8 fertilized, 2 transferred to me on day 4, 6 attempted to grow to day 5 but only 2 made it to freeze on day 5. So of 12 potentials, only 4 have been deemed good enough to transfer. Now we have to have faith that those 2 totsicles will thaw and can be transferred to me. I will make more acupuncture visits and perhaps try those herbs she suggested. I will ask Dr D on the phone call next week about those. 

This week is thanksgiving. I love this time of year. Not so much the cold, but the feeling of the holidays makes me so happy. Also next week we get to hear the recommendations for Zoe's ADHD. I am looking forward to taking steps with her on this. She was with her dad this past weekend. I always miss her so much when she is with him. Just serves to remind me that I can't live without her :) At least I have my girls to get me through this disappointment :) Oh and in 17 days we take Zoe on her surprise 10th birthday trip. I am really excited for that. Then its Christmas! So thanksgiving this week, Zoe's appt and phone call with RE next week, week after that is Zoe's trip, a week of nothing after that, then its christmas, then new years, then I will start  meds again for our January transfer. :D yay! :) 

Here are picture of me and Zoe being silly.
