The Longest Days April 29, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — everydayadventure @ 7:20 am

There are a lot of long days in the land of infertility.  Now that I have three embryos, once again, transferred to my hopefully-welcoming uterus, I expect the next 10 days to be the longest of the cycle.  The cycle itself did seem to go by faster this time – probably because I knew more or less what to expect.  But the passing of time seems to have come to a screeching halt, and the questioning and doubting thoughts are coming fast and furious.

I am trying to do some meditations and take deep breaths and realize that the negative thoughts are just chatter and are not helpful in any way.  I hope that I can keep this up for the next week and a half.

Unfortunately four of the seven embryos did not make it over the weekend, so they were able to transfer three yesterday and we didn’t end up with any to freeze.  So, internet, please plead with the universe on my behalf that this round of IVF will work.
