I had my transfer on the 21st and had to cough while laying there after the transfer and thought, oh my, I just coughed out my embryos! Then instantly started googling whether or not that was possible! Reminded me of your sneeze!

GL and I hope you are able to enjoy your rest at least somewhat, I know with Magpie on the scene there's little quiet time in your regular day. <br /><br />And I hardly need tell you that obsessive worrying about small details does not improve (or detract from) the likelihood of good results, but then -- BTDT.

And to Karen who commented earlier re: her failed normal transfers - wishing you tons of luck as well, whether you go the IVIG or GC route. My first CCRM transfer last month failed, and we've decided to go the GC route (only 3 normal embies left) - but even knowing it's the right thing for us, it's still a tough, tough decision to make. Wishing you peace and success whichever route you take.Ninanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160381109996491098.post-74100047464413692622015-08-30T16:26:42.678-04:002015-08-30T16:26:42.678-04:00Thank you for the info.

Sunshine was at her grandmother's last Monday through Friday (gap between camp ending and vacay before school starting). When you get home and she's in your arms, I highly recommend pressing your nose into her neck and inhaling. It's the scent of home and love and miracles.

WRT to the ...Hi Mo,<br />ah the torture that is the tww!<br />WRT to the sneeze, I will always remember being told that the endometrium/uterus is like a peanut butter sandwich closing around the embryo. Weird but reassuring...<br />And fwiw I just failed my third transfer of a CCS normal blast at CCRM and the only things measurably not "perfect" were a slightly low estrogen level, so maybe a little high is better than a little low- I am hoping for you!<br />Mo, I am looking into IVIG before moving onto a GC. If you have a moment would you mind telling me the protocol you followed?<br />Thank you. Fingers crossed for you!<br />Karen <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160381109996491098.post-17815144726214848652015-08-30T08:04:40.234-04:002015-08-30T08:04:40.234-04:00Rooting for you Mo!!!!!Rooting for you Mo!!!!!Mariannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11851131029178140842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160381109996491098.post-285502221950737262015-08-30T07:20:24.513-04:002015-08-30T07:20:24.513-04:00Thinking of you Mo, hoping for good things, but ma...Thinking of you Mo, hoping for good things, but mainly hoping for peace in this time of 'not knowing-ness'.

I doubted things like you are… like my estrogen being too low. I highly doubt that CCRM would let you go ahead with less than optimal results for estrogen and lining pattern. So try no to over obsess. Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02765709503362203512noreply@blogger.com
