The ever moving transfer date

Well, well, well, my transfer date got moved AGAIN.

We started with Feb. 5th, then went to Feb. 7th, then the 14th and now...drumroll...the 12th. My estrogen was 207 today so they're ramping me up to 4 patches at once starting tonight and off we go. I do lupron up to Thursday morning, then on Thursday evening I start PIO and drop the patches back down to two at once. And I shall finally be done with the lupron! Hoorah. I have to do PIO twice a day up to transfer, and then switch to one PIO and one Crinone after transfer. Oh, and I start medrol and tetracycline on Thursday too. Then transfer on Tuesday.

And other more complicated instructions. In fact, I have several post-it notes filled with complicated notes, which are all compounded by switching lupron over from night time shots to morning shots, and by me only being on two patches right now instead of three as they thought. But instructions are boring, so blah blah blah to them.

Oh, and the other thing they told me today is that they're going to thaw the embryo on Monday night, to give it a bit of extra time to recover before the transfer time on Tuesday. So, internets, I have a favor to ask. Please could you beam lots of "survive the thaw" thoughts down to Florida on my behalf?

OMG! This is like the never-ending cycle! You're right...your instructions much be so confusing to you (much less us). Hopefully all goes well and if you're looking for a good thaw, be glad you're in FL rather than the Northeast regions!

To Sarah: for what it's worth, 12 has always been my favorite number.

To the little embie: YOU WILL SURVIVE (and the Gloria Gaynor song swells in the background...)
