6dp3dt

6 days past 3 day transfer. 

I'm pretty nauseated. I'm very hungry. Yesterday my left boob hurt. 

My beta is Monday (12dp3dt) 

Can I wait?  Time will tell :)

Brunch with fellow NEDC mama and Cade's Cove

We got to meet Jennifer and Aaron for lunch!  I was really excited because Jennifer was the first NEDC mama to reach out to me back in 2012 when we were beginning this process. It was so great to finally meet her!


Then Mat and I went out to Cades Cove

We saw a bear!


It was a fun day!  Tomorrow morning we head home :)

PUPO!!!!

Transferred 3 embies this morning. One was an exceptional grade 1 (highest quality) and the other two were grade 2 (1-5 scale). We lost two during the thaw and we grieve for them but are glad they are at peace in Heaven. 

So I'm pregnant until proven otherwise! PUPO!!!

Before the transfer with our precious babes. 

After the transfer (head down) the really bright white spot in the top pick is the babies snuggling up in my womb :)

Prayers appreciated!

Good to go!

My lining is 1 cm (or 10mm) and my estradiol is good. I don't know the level yet, because I forgot to ask Lynda when she called and my local clinic hasn't updated my record yet. 

Transferring on Wednesday!  Hoping for another cutie like this :)

23 months!

I can't believe she'll be 2 years old in a month!  It's crazy!  

She loves her Bobcat sweatshirt that daddy got her




Loves swimming!  



  • Blows kisses, but says "Moosh!" rather than "muah".  It's cute :)
  • loves strawberries and pizza.  She now eats pizza in the slice form 
  • enjoys watching daddy mow
  • loves to steer things
  • says complete sentences at random but usually just gibberish
  • says "Oh no!" when she drops something
  • spins in circles and giggles
  • Her new favorite book is the Mercer Myer Numbers book.  
  • Still less than enthused about mooing (peek a boo barn or Farm Animals book) but no longer cries.  
  • Huge fan of Daniel Tiger and Sofia the First

Estradiol 21?

Lynda said I'm good to go... but I just checked my estradiol level through my local clinic website and it was 21.  Normal range for ovulating females is 23-443 (depending on where in the cycle they are).  In February my value was 72....

Maybe lupron is supposed to suppress it?  Maybe it wasn't working well last time at this point? 

I don't know what my numbers where from Daughter's transfer in 2012 because we used another clinic.  Just one more thing to stress about!  I need to put it on God's shoulders and not worry... easier said than done!

Good to go!

I had my first ultrasound and lab work today. Lynda called and I'm "good to go"!  So that's exciting. 

I'm still on Lupron and I start taking Estrace tomorrow. I'm cranky.  I get headaches. My tummy looks like a pin cushion of bruises (and now I have a bruise from my lab draw too, gotta love pale skin!).  Now I feel nauseated... I'm not sure if it is the meds or I'm coming down with something. 

Mat is being awesome, as usual. He puts up with my crankiness and even tries to calm me down. I love him :)
