Got My Preggo On!

I was fine until yesterday when I started sweating balls that something could go wrong today. I mean, look at everything else that has happened to us...haha!

However...

We transferred two perfect grade blasts this morning!!! Woohoo! One was graded 4aa, and the other was 4bb. One was about to start hatching and we still have another five marinating until tomorrow. Our doctor is very hopeful that we will get some snowbaby siblings! Here is a good reference link on how they grade the blasts.

He said that this is the best possible scenerio that you could have during a transfer! God is so good!

We are still in Charleston and I am laid up on bed rest for a few days. We will head back home tomorrow morning so that I can get out of this hotel room and be in my own comfy bed. We brought Griswold here, and have been spoiling him by letting him sleep in the bed with us. I swear it is like sleeping with a horse. He's got to go back to that crate. Evicted!

Here are a few pics from our fun morning...I was all doped up on Valium and feeling the flow! Their printer was broken and I don't have a pic of the actual embryos, but I will get one from them later this week to share!

 All ready to go!



After the transfer. Andy looks like he's crying. I'm all doped up on Valium.




Arrow pointing to our two babies in my uterus! Big black blob on top is my bladder...about to explode!


Our babies are in there! I had to go feed them Mexican for their first meal.



A huge thanks to all of our troops on this 4th of July, especially my bro-in-law who has been deployed for 1.5 years and won't be home until next year.

Hopefully today will mark our independence from infertility! Stick babies stick!
