Eeeeeeeeeek!!!!!!! Ok, I know I just wrote you all yesterday, but I just had to let you all know the great news! After I posted yesterday I got word of a tentative embryo transfer schedule. Today I got word that the schedule was approved by both myself and the egg donor. We are a go!!!!! Of course the 1st person I e-mailed was the soon to be mommy, Belle. I wish she was here so we could jump up and down in excitement together. I know we're both jumping for joy across the seas though. Eeeeeeeeek!!!!!! That's all I can say. So this is how it's all going to go down.
May 4th - I will start my new pack of birth control pills.
May 19th - I will start my Lupron injections. This will suppress my ovaries and make sure I don't ovulate.
May 25th - I will take my last birth control pill.
May 29th - I will go in for a monitoring checkup to check my uterus lining.
May 30th - I will most likely start taking Estradiol if all looks well. This is a pregnancy hormone that helps to grow the lining of the uterus and maintain a pregnancy. This is needed since the doctors are trying to kick start a pregnancy that was not started on it's own in my body.
June 5th - I will go in for another monitoring checkup.
June 13th - I will go in for another monitoring checkup. If all looks well then we are a go for the transfer.
Week of June 17th - Transfer Week !!!! We will fly out to Connecticut for the transfer. This trip will take about 5 days to include monitoring, the transfer, and some rest time before we fly back home.
Eeeeeeeek!!!!!!! It's all so exciting!
