My plan

I have a plan for the week no matter when my transfer ends up being. If it is tomorrow, then I'm off from work Wednesday to Friday and will be doing bed rest for 2 days, and couch rest for 3 days. Then I'll go back to work on Monday and hope those suckers are attached to my uterus. The only bummer if it is tomorrow, is that I wanted to get a massage before to calm me down. I'm not sleeping well and I can feel the anxiety. I went to my last yoga class for a while, last night and it was a killer class. She kicked my butt it was so hard, so I was very relaxed and exhausted when I got home. I fell asleep easily but then woke up at 2am dreaming about the embryos. I did dream that tomorrow the RE called me and told me I had the "Super Six" left and we'd be going to a 5dt.

If I do get to go to a 5dt, I'm going to the movies Wednesday night to see The Proposal with a few neighborhood ladies. I have a massage scheduled this Thursday night before the transfer. Hopefully I get to keep my appointment. My massage therapist is actually a former nurse at RMA. She left a year ago to work at another RE's office part-time, but she does massage and reiki therapy on the side. Then I'm off from work Friday, Monday, and Tuesday. I even could take Wednesday off if I want to. I'll decide then. I have a bunch of movies to watch courtesy of my friend Anne. Thanks Anne!

I know this was a really boring post, but I just wanted to write down my plan so I can see how close I come to it in reality.

I bet you are on edge. I'm sorry. I wish I could be there to join you for lunch or something today as a distraction.

Go for a long walk and burn off some of that anxiety.

We're rooting for you in NOLA.

Hang in there...I know it's hard to relax, but do whatever you can to make that happen to the extent that you are able. Find your happy place. :)

I'm glad you have a plan. Maybe that will give you some peace.

Try not to get too caught up in the numbers. Out of 10 of mine that fertilized, I only had 3 left on day 3. I had a 3 day transfer of a 8 cell, 6 cell and a 5 cell. Those 3 embreyos are playing on my floor right now and just had an awesome 6 month check up. I am thinking about you and wish you the best.b

I will be praying that your plan works out just as you hoped. It sounds like a fun one. But just remember, God doesn't need our plans to create life. My sister's absolute WORST IVF round is the one that resulted in her twins! I know that is the pat answer and I don't mean to belittle your hope for all to go as planned. I would feel the EXACT same way. I just wanted to offer a little encouragment! I will be praying!!! (and thanks for your sweet comment!)
