#embryotransfer

I came home and napped and practically didn't move off the lounge all afternoon.

I think i was emotionally drained.

Anyway.

Guess who won the bet...

MEEEEEEE.

I currently have embryo number 5 in my belly.

Back track to yesterday.

I had to have a full bladder for the transfer and boy was mine full.

I asked the secretaries if I could empty a little bit out as I was so uncomfortable and felt like I was going to vomit from the pressure.

They told me to let a small bit out but I wasn't allowed to completely empty.

Guess what... I kind of pissed myself on the way to the toilet 🤦‍♀️ how embarrassing.

I thought I let way more out than I should so I panicked and texted JV to drop my water bottle at the front door off the specialists rooms so I could skull some more water to make up for what I just lost lol.

I threw back another 500mls hoping that in 15mins it may have time to make it to my bladder.

It sure as hell did.

I haven't fully drained my bladder and the extra fluid put me right back where I was.

Bloated. Hurting and busting to wee.

I cant even begin to explain how stressed I was. Holy crap.

I asked my specialist if I could please go let a little bit out (again) and she agreed as long as I didn't let much out.

Well I tried.

I went back and laid on the table terrified I had fucked up and let too much out.

Nope. My bladder was still sooooo full. She was surprised I even lasted the procedure With how full it was.

Due to my large as fuck bladder it obscured the image slightly so when the embryo and air bundle that pushed it in when into my uterus I didn't really get to see it as clear as the last time.

She assured me there was a lightened spot of where the embryo was sitting and let me jump up to empty the rest of my bladder.

Well that is that.

...

So currently. I am so bloody constipated.

Well... here we go.

Again.

My first frozen transfer is about to happen.

Wow.

I'm sitting here will a fully bladder and a cute floral mask.

JV wasn't allowed to come with me.

He drove me and dropped me off.

I think he was going for a drive around the beaches. We have some beautiful beaches locally and along the East Coast of Australia.

Its 16 degrees here today but feels like about half that. The wind is freezing.

I'm really not sure which embryo will be popped in today. They all look pretty similar.

The scientist makes the choice so its all a surprise again for us.

We have our guesses...

JV - 3

AV - 5

Its so surreal to think something so microscopic, unfrozen and placed in my tummy could be our 2nd chance at being parents.

All the positive vibes.
