1dp5dt

Yesterday's transfer went well. It was a very quiet day in Day Surgery, I think there was only 3-4 IVFers. One was a friend of mine going for No.2. I'm not used to chatting to other ppl in the 'holding area' [nice term that] and found it exceptionally odd discussing intra-vaginal operations with someone else's husband whilst naked under my very fetching green and white striped hospital dressing gown.

Unfortunately the embryologist was not very chatty. When I asked questions about 'frostie' she told me she knew it had thawed ok but hadn't checked since then. I wish I had the strength to tell her go check on my baby now. I am such a wuss. DH would have been able to find the words to politely ask, but for the first time ever he wasn't able to come with me.

The theatre nurse said my bladder was textbook full and the Doctor's surname was Hope, so I am Hopeful that the entire procedure and of course the result will be textbook. Countdown to March 7th. Thanks for your good wishes.

I understand completely -- I'm the same way -- I can never shake this feeling that I am trying to be the 'good girl' for everyone -- even the doctors. *sigh* It's difficult.

I'm wishing you all the best. I find that sweets helps the wait.

And helps, well, everything...

Best,

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. Glad it went well, though the embryologist sounds like an old bat.
