Day 2 post ET

-
Day 5 of the whole thing ... apparently my little embies are supposed to be blastocysts today and do the "nisting in" ... and I really hope they hold on properly!!!

The emby transfer on Friday was "smooth" (or so the nurse and consultant said - I was feeling uncomfy with the speculum etc - sorry ... tmi!). We have 2 grade II embies back on board and 3-4 grade II embies to be frosties. Grade I embies only happen once every fortnight apparently, so I think we've done well.

Went to Ikea after the transfer (mmmh... should have put my feet up but needed some diversion!) and then the rest was me flopping on the couch.

Yesterday about the same thing, went for 2 hours to ArtStamps (and restraint myself shopping wise!) and then back on the couch.

I have trouble with migraines since day before EC (and I think it's the hormones) and today feel a little nausea, but believe that's because I didn't have any breakfast yet.

Think I'll keep to the resting pattern until Tuesday and then will be off the couch for more ...

Mmmh... now for that ice pack and mint oil .... not allowed painkillers as far as I know ... :(

Christmas Journal Entry #2

Phew!!! Took me longer than I thought!!! :) Maybe I should leave the crafty bits out ... I am a slow scrapper after all (found that out at the Cyber Crop!!). But have to say I LOVE that LO. Used acetate with stazon white opaque (over photo), snowflake eyelets, snowflake button and snowflake vellum sticker. The prompt today suggested we cut a paper snowflake ... well, I had three attempts and am absolutely rubbish at it!! So I decided I try my luck with a quilled snowflake ... first time ever for me to do a snowflake and you can see the wonky result! LOL.

 Here is my Final Round up for the Photo Scavenger Hunt 2013: 1. Open air market (Market Stall outside Kew Station, London) 2. Theater for performing arts (not a movie theater) ( Edinburgh Festival Theatre ) 3. City Hall, Capitol or other similar civic building (Dumfries Council Buildings) 4. Airplane (Our Virgin Flight plane to London) 5. A sunset (opted for another picture than posted before, as this sunset is more stunning! It’s taken at Knockbrex House, Dumfries & Galloway, with view of the Bay) 6. Someone or something taking a nap (there’s too much cuteness about, and still so many photos of the Hobbits falling asleep ) 7. A sign that is intentionally or unintentionally funny (Seeing it was Maple Pecan Ice cream, the note  “May contain other nuts” makes you really wonder…) 8. A tower (Watch tower at St. Cuthbert’s graveyard, Edinburgh, defending against grave robbery) 9. A photo with someone or something that is clearly out of place or doesn'...

Day 15 ...

Mmmmh... headaches, a little pulling pain, and now some dark brown spotting (but really just a little, goes away after dabbing - SORRY, TMI!) ... wonder if my body decided to take its time and does implantation bleed later than normal???? I don't think that both embies are making it ... but I have a little hope that maybe my little 1-grader (LOL) hangs on!!! Could do with the long wait though .... :( Tomorrow we're off to Newcastle for the day ... bit walking about, going to the MetroCentre for Big Luke's (first time), Hotel Chocolat (first time in Newcastle) and Hobbycrafts - and Toys R Us for Doug... :D Mood goes up and down ... considering what we woman (and partners/hubbies) are going through with IVF we should get a definite YES or NO!!! Not such a stupid limbo stuff!!! :( Little one, hang on ... maybe your great granddad (RIP) can help you to stick???
