Transfer day!! *Update*

Ruthie • 40 years oldTTC for five years. 2 ectopic pregnancies and one miscarriage. One IVF and failed. 😥 Here to just to track periods
We just transferred 2 perfect 3 day embryos. One with 8 cells and the other with 6. I honestly can't believe this day is finally here! 
We had our beta yesterday and the test came back negative. We are beyond heartbroken.

Hi Melanie!! First, good luck!! I would suggest to try and limit stress, if possible. I also found doing the injections on my own was a lot easier than having my husband do them. I felt calmer and in control by doing them. Definitely stay positive! I was discouraged when we only got 5 eggs and 3 fertilized. But, when we went in for our transfer, the number of cells of the 2 we transferred were right on target. The 6-cell had actually been a 4-cell the morning of our transfer, but when they brought them on, we were informed that it had already split into 6. Listen to what your nurses and doctors say, even if it seems crazy! I was told to be on bed rest after the transfer for 2 days(every clinic is different) and while I feel like I could go back to work, I'm trusting they know better than I do. Another thing, let others help you! I hate having someone being me food and take care of me like this, but it's important to be relaxed!

My retrieval was Friday, and I'm off weekends, but I was told that there was no reason to, if I had to work.

Oh my goodness I know seeing that positive has to be so amazing either way! Hoping it's just the trigger and this round was successful for you 🤞🏻

My beta is next Friday. I took a test this morning, just to see if the trigger was gone. I got a faint line, so I'm not sure what to think. Leaning toward it being the trigger. I'll probably test Wednesday. I can't wait until Friday.
