Calendar Check

I start the Lupron on Sunday 13 Oct.
22 Oct I have my ultrasound to see if I'm suppressed.
5 November is my lining check.
Sometime after that about 7 days give or take a day I'll be doing the embryo transfer.

I would have posted a photo of my calendar but I'm so used to this now that the all the novelty has worn off.

Don't get me wrong I'm still very hopeful but I'm just not all dancing in my chair right now either.  I'm tired.  I've been bleeding for 13 days all while on birth control.  If you have been following me since the beginning you'll know that I don't respond well to hormones.  To the bleeding while on birth control all I can say is Meh.

Calendar Has Arrived

I've been in touch with PNW.

1. We got our first choice donor.
2. They freeze only top grade blastocysts.  No I don't know the grading system they use.  Probably AA is my guess
3. We'll get a picture of the  blastocysts when we transfer them.

Right now I'm trying to get a paper notarized so that I can get the blastocysts thawed and transferred.  Since we are signing this document outside of their clinic we have to go to JAG here to get it witnessed.  No big deal unless you are dealing with a spouse with a really busy schedule.

Yay! Back from JAG.  Hard to believe we were able to get it done today.  Fingers crossed the rest of the cycle goes this smoothly.

So here is where J and I stand with the schedule.  I'll have to remember to bring with me to the marriage retreat, which is the 5th-7th of April, a sharps container and a couple of  cold packs for the lupron.  I'll have to draw it up into the syringe before we leave so that I have to bring on the one needle and not worry about not being able to refrigerate the whole bottle.  Maybe I'll bring a small cooler lunch bag to put it all in so that it stays cool longer since I'll be away for a few days.  Hoping that they have a fridge in the room.
