Because Letter Bombs Aren’t Very Nice.

Life has become a practice in patience. Wait……. wait……… wait……….. HURRY UP!!!…. and wait.

“Our” egg donor is the current issue. We have one wee little frozen blast that hasn’t been given very good odds so we need a fresh donation.. but our donor is… stalling? Or the agency is stalling? No one seems to have a clear answer other then that P-Daddy should hand over another pile of money. The ED does not want to cycle and monitor in LA this time. She wants to do so locally, which will cost quite a few additional pennies to do. There is a second choice but “we’re” not getting any quick answers about availability. Come to think of it, I don’t think we have that info about the original ED either?

COME ON, People! Get your heads out of your……. Well, wake up, anyway. We’ve got some baby making to do here and you certainly aren’t helping!

A Mini-Whoop!

Well. My RE did NOT recommend P-Daddy use another surrogate. Whoop! Well, Mini whoop anyway. Egg donor has to be re-screened for another transfer and that can take anywhere from 2 to 6 additional weeks, so a March transfer is pretty much out of the question and an April transfer is looking unlikely as well. Waiting is fine, unsure waiting not so much. I’m really just hoping she responds better then she did last time and get more then 2 “OK” embies to work with! We only had one to save from her last donation and we have to go through that whole process again simply because that one wasn’t so great to begin with; the odds of it thawing happily and having a successful transfer are pretty slim.  Please, give us a nice bunch to work with so that we have more then one shot at this! And also… some to save for a sibling in a few years, perhaps?? Asking too much? Yah. Probably.

Have to say, though, I am relieved to at least have the question of my participation behind me. I’m still in this “game” and that is such a weight off of my shoulders!

Side note: I’ve been going to the gym now for a month, at least 5 days a week. Pushing-pushing myself to get my cycle and pregnancy fluff off so that I am at a great starting point for another pregnancy. Happy to say I’m getting there! I’m only down 2 pounds ( which is better then the up 4 pounds I was 2 weeks ago) but I’m starting to feel better. Big thumbs up, self shoulder pat kind of stuff. So YAY for getting thin so that I can happily get fat again!!!!

Next up; a cycle calendar. Hoping for news about her screening and a time-line there so that I know what I’m going to be doing and when.

Failure; In the Thick of It.

“Specimine failed to grow in culture. No further testing possible.”

Happy Birthday, Beyotch. ( um yah. that was today also. Hows that for some icing, huh? )

So we have an answer. And the answer we have is…… we have no answer. No growth in culture means no Karyotype results, which means I have no effing clue what will happen next. The donor was supposed to be ready to cycle again in March, I’m on BCP in prep for another cycle, but it’s hands in the air! as far as knowledge of that ever elusive “next step” goes.

Side note for those of you paying close enough attention to claim stalker status: My sturdy uterine lining grew to an incredible 1.2cm in thickness!! Hows that for a WOW factor???!!

 What?

 Do you know how thick YOUR uterine lining gets??? Pshhhht.

The Illusion of an Update

Got the word: no test results will be coming till Feb 15th ( ironic.)

Got the word: no BCP will be prescribed till test results.

Got the witch now.

Got the OB’s number to order BCP on my own. No way in hell I’m wasting another month.

Got it?

Good.

Update.. in about 2 weeks unless something HAPPENS! Or, you  know, y’all start asking thought provoking questions.
