Today I got a call from the IVF nurse that none of the remaining 5 embryos matured enough to be frozen. The good news is that the 2 they transferred yesterday were excellent blasts. I was a little let down. I was hoping for at least 4 frosties for future use. Chris was let down as well. I don't think he wants to see me go through all this pain again. I'm still sore from the retrieval and it's been almost a week.
I asked when I could expect my ovaries to go back to normal. The nurse said that if I get pg, it will be weeks before they shrink back down. They like to hear complaints of pressure around the time of the pg test, it's usually a good sign. I'm assuming if I'm not pg, I will feel back to normal by 12/18-the date of my blood test. So now I'm secretly hoping to feel this pressure until sometime in January.
Last night I had the worst back pain. Tylenol was of no help. I was ready to pull my hair out. I woke up at 430am this morning with back pain and managed to fall back asleep around 6am after taking Tylenol. I didn't want to take the Percocet because I didn't think it was safe but I found out today that I can use it. I took one today. My back feels better so now I'm hoping it wasn't just my ovaries but maybe implantation cramps??? This next week is going to be torture as I'm looking for any sign of success. I can't rely on the sore breasts theory because I've had that since Wednesday from the Prometrium.
Please keep us in your prayers and send us some sticky vibes. Let's hope at least one of these embryos burrow in for a long 9 months.
