It's definitely exciting but mostly excruciating, to be honest. These are going to be tough days ahead...days of wondering, praying, hoping and like I've written before, waiting. I'm just hoping that it won't be quite as stressful as four years ago when I first went through this. The nurse already warned me that bleeding does happen and cramping and all the other unwanted things that can make me think it did not work. And she reminded me not to give in to the 'dark side' and just 'stay with the Force'....(her words exactly, by the way....what a wonderful lady!).
So...that's what I've been working on with all my might...to stay with the Force, to keep the faith. And as they say, faith is not believing that things will go your way, but rather believing that no matter how it turns out, you will be fine.
Before I sign off for now, below is a picture of my uterus after the embryo transfer. The bigger white dot towards the top is actually the 'bubble' or 'sac' (not sure what they call it) containing my three embryos. Ignore the date and time stamp. The machine was wrong.
hang in there, Joy! We'll keep you company thru FB :-)
