FET
Embryo transfer was yesterday.
It feels SO good to finally have it done. It was just all I could think about for weeks. I feel so much more relaxed now. I just hope I’m actually pregnant.
It was a pretty easy process. Pretty much the same as an IUI except it was in the OR and they used an ultrasound to verify the catheter was in the uterus. Chris got to go back with me. They gave us a picture of the embryo and it was half hatched which was super cool, I wasn’t expecting that since it wasn’t hatching when it got frozen. I guess it started hatching after they thawed it. Anyway Dr. Banks put the catheter in and I didn’t even feel it, idk if it’s because she’s an actual expert or all these hormones made my cervix relaxed but with the IUI it was at least mildly crampy, sometimes pretty painful. So the embryo went in, they checked the catheter to make sure it didn’t get stuck in there, and we were done.
My blood test is on October 3 but I’m gonna test probably in five days. Seems like a lot of people get faint positives at least by then. Chris is absolutely convinced I’m pregnant and I just wish he’d relax about it because if I’m not I feel like he’s gonna have a melt down. Like there’s being optimistic and then there’s setting yourself up for major disappointment. I’m just not counting on anything until I know.
Hopefully there’s a little Evie Pea growing inside me right now ❤️
