To all 5 of you who read my blog I thought since I have updated on every stage of our IVF I should get to the results quickly. Soooo.....Ryan and I found out we are going to be parents!!!
Here's how it went down:
On Monday the 20th we did the transfer, the next 3 1/2 days I did bed rest and any other trick I read about or had friends tell me about like, keeping your feet warm and drinking hot liquids. The Dr. told us I would be coming in on Saturday the 25th for bloodwork and there is a chance you will be able to out then but most of the time it's too soon. So Saturday came and Ryan left at 6:00am for a early tee time to golf. I couldn't sleep so I got up and went to get my blood drawn. I came home and normally they call around 1-2pm with medicine instructions so I started cleaning and doing laundry, around 10am I heard the phone ring I looked and it was the Dr.'s office I picked it up and it wasn't the nurse it was my Dr. He said "Congratulations" and I burst into tears lol. Ryan was golfing and I wanted to scream it to the world but it was so soon so I text Ryan and then just had to wait for him to come home to celebrate. We decided not to tell anyone until we got to day 10 in case something changed.
We ended up telling our parents at Sunday dinner that things were looking good but that nothing official until the 30th. I went in on the 30th for blood again and once again the Dr. called and said I am still pregnant!! (I maybe have taken a test or 5 to check everyday lol)
I feel fine, just hungry right now. I'm almost hoping I get morning sickness so I can loose a few pounds I have gained through this IVF process.
We go back in a week for blood again my beta numbers are on the higher side so there is a chance both took and we have twins on our hands. We have our first ultrasound in 2 weeks to find out.
Thank you all for the love, support and prayers! We couldn't have done this without our family and friends. This has been such a long expensive draining process that we will probably not go through again so to have it work means so much to us.
Please refrain from Facebook comments of any kind, it will not go public until we are in the clear and have been released from the Fertility Center!
I am so happy for you. We have been praying for you guys and will continue to do so. How exciting! I wish you speedy morning sickness so you can enjoy every bit of it you can as I am sure you will after all you've been through. Congratulations cuz!
