i am sorry for the duplication, as i am also posting something similar on the dec/jan thread (but i am sure that this post will be the best :wink: ).

I am in LIMBO HELL. (and i am not referring to the little stick thing that you go under!)

That 8 cell one that completely stopped growing... well, "he" started growing (i am thinking indecisive as a character trait :wink: ). he isn't moving fast, but enough to make RE think it may be ready to be transferred tomorrow. SO, get this (ohhh, the torture!) I will be going in for "tenative" transfer tomorrow. I will get on the table, THEN they will look at my pitiful little embryo and see if he grew. only if it becomes an expanded blast will they transfer. If not... ladies, the ugly cry will be impressive! ok, mini rant (just humor me again for a min :roll: ). Why is this never easy? Why can't i just make eggs, have them fertilize, at least a few grow and then have at least a few decent quality ones to transfer??? With the complications i have had, why can't it be easy just once???

Actually doing ok as i am busy @ dh office (he has trial starting tomorrow... he had it postponed from today so that he could be at the ET that was SUPPOSED to happen today :evil:... as a result, he can't be with me tomorrow :cry: ). There is lots to do, so it is keeping me from crying all day. Chin is up, what do i have to lose (except the rest of my sanity)? heheehee, not much left to lose!

btw, if this "problem embryo" somehow, through a miracle from God, becomes a child... i am going to ring its little neck for putting its momma through this :lol:

Hope you are all well!

Sass, You definately are in hell at the moment. Am thinking of you and praying that you have a fighter for transfer tomorrow...
This process is so damn hard with hurdles every step of the way. I think a lot of us take for granted that we will have embies for transfer. I won't take anything for granted in this process any more.

Please keep us posted. Fee

I'm thinking of you, too, Sassy! Please let us know how things went tomorrow--I don't think I'm going to be able to sleep tonight worrying about you. It's funny how I feel like we're all in this together. Irrational, huh?

ok, back home and laying back in the comfy recliner. wheeeww, girls it was a good thing that i had my toenails already painted the beautiful sparkly color, although they were covered up by the booties. Did think about the "Reproducers" btw... but not much, didn't want to giggle, as my bladder was about to burst! But the revolving table did cross my mind once or twice :wink:. Guys, i am SO happy that little bugger grew like a champ! Quite a fighter i have there. Now, just hoping it is a chromosomally nl embryo, and i will be on my way! wooohooo!!! dh wasn't able to be there... in court, but lovely sil was there with me. Haven't eaten all day (too nervous to eat all am) and sil just got me tacos (yum!) so i am going to chow... will check in later!

Sassy! That's excellent news. I've finally worked out how to use my home internet so I could check in on you over the weekend! i was just walking around the river this morning feeling grumpy but I must say that your news has put me in a much better frame of mind. I'm feeling quite elated now! YOu really deserve this. Enjoy the tacos and the recliner (sounds like a perfect combo to me) Fee.

Hey all. Thanks for being excited for me! Stll hasn't totally sunk in that i actually had a transfer yest (i am very good at preparing myself for the worst :wink: .) but here i am, stuck on the recliner. Yipeee! oooo, i feel like this is a total "bonus" chance. So currently not even stressed about whether or not i a preg, just very happy that i have an opportunity to be preg!

Meg: what? vicodin? I want some! :lol: . So how come you get vicodin for ET???? Do tell. I have almost no pain during ET (that is, of course, assuming we don't take into account the painfully bloated bladder!). But, hey, vicodon? may have to speak w/RE about that. heeheehee.

Good wkend to everyone

I think she gave it to me so I would go home and sleep. She had me take one about 1/2 hour before the procedure and then I had a prescription for 10 that I could take at my discretion. I just kept popping them--I'd take one, fall asleep for two hours wake up and eat and the take another one, fall asleep for two hours, wake up and eat, etc. It was frigging great!

But, before you get too jealous remember that I had a BFN so maybe it was the drugs!!!!!! (Although the three day haze was almost worth it :lol: )
