I would love to know what's going on in there right now! Are the little ones still dividing? Are they snuggling in?
I want to ask them, "Hey, are you guys chromosomally NORMAL or what?" Because, I need you to be! Please, pretty please, with sugar on top, stick around for the long haul. Thanks.
I had some strange cramping, kind of pinching. I wonder if it was implantation or just wishful thinking? I want to think it was in the ute area, but I wouldn't bet the farm on it. Perhaps I am just freakishly gaseous today AND have no spacial awareness?
Bedrest was boring. Let me 'splain. No, let me summarize...
I ate
read my trashy novel
ate
watched movies on itunes
ate
let dogs out
ate
gave and received injections (NOT a fan of Lovenox so far)
ate
checked facebook
ate
checked twitter
ate
read blogs
ate
read my trashy novel
ate
made lesson plans for the next two weeks
ate
graded papers
ate
made flip books for my class
I don't know why I'm so hungry. Maybe the Medrol or some other drug, or the boredom made me do it. Or, I'm just an oinker.
The embryologist called yesterday. Here are the stats:
16 eggs retrieved
11 mature - ICSI'd
9 fertilized
2 transferred
3 cryopreserved (we had another one jump on board yesterday).
Not a bad batch for me. Well, assuming some of them are NORMAL.
Because, when it comes to embryos, apparently normal is NOT overrated. Out of five, let's hope that at least one of them will create a baby that makes it to full term. Is that too much to ask?
It was good to get back to work today and get my mind off of things.

I have bubbleguts for you! I am SOOO excited. This HAS to be it, PJ! FANTASTIC that you have three frozens!
Hey love the owls!! Let me just say I was never a fan of lovenox for any of the time I was on it. I had to switch to heparin and was not a fan of that until I got it in a pump instead of for injections daily.
I am glad that you got some snow flakes!
I'm imagining a clear panel on your belly. Heh.
Bedrest actually sounds kind of boring NICE.
Yay for your totsicles!
It could be like a little window on a glass bottom boat...or the window into the ocean on those great tiki huts in the south pacific! :)
Ooh, a window - now there's an idea. Or maybe some sort of read-out on a screen to tell you what's going on.
If you could get a blackberry in there, maybe they'd start blogging...? (And now I'm imagining the trip to the ER with crazy hoping-to-be-pregnant lady explaining why there's a blackberry up there - I reeeeeally need this 2WW to be over!!!)
Great news about your three snowbabies.
Great fert report, and so glad you have some frozen ones too. Great cycle all around.
And if you are on progesterone, that can make you hungry. I was always hungry one that stuff. Evil.
I am totally rooting for the embies in your belly right now. I wish you had a window too. It sounds like the odds are in your favor. I am totally praying for you and have you in my well wishes thoughts daily. *fingers crossed!*
Really hoping that this is your month PJ!
I love that you say "Ute."
This is it... I can feel it!
I'm wishing the same thing right now. Fingers crossed for you!
I am so, so hopeful for you that this is it!!!!
Wouldn't it be nice to have a window???
Everything crossed that this is IT for you!
Those are awesome stats! I love the "ute window" imagery. I think all IFers should come with one! :) Keepin' my fingers crossed for you!
