We Got the Call

This morning has been like any other morning except for the fact that it isn't. James was able to stay home with me, which is amazing. I had a lot of pain last night and where we did the Progesterone in Oil shot yesterday my butt is really sore. I was surprised that it didn't hurt when we did the injection, but little did I know that it would hurt hours later. I had a hard time sleeping last night. Either my stomach was cramping or my butt/hip would hurt when I moved. I must have been anxious last night because I think I woke up about 100 times to see what time it was.

When I woke up this morning I had a hard time getting out of bed, and going to the bathroom. It hurt to do pretty much anything that involved moving. I am starting to feel better and the pain meds are really helping. I was waiting all morning for the call from the office to let me know how our little guys did overnight, and we had success!!!! From the three eggs they retrieved, two of them were mature. They had to ICSI both of them, (which basically means they injected the sperm into the egg), and both eggs fertilized. I was so excited after I hung up the phone that I actually ventured outside to tell James the news. I started to cry, and I didn't know what was going through my mind. There was a flood of emotions, thankfulness, worry, nervousness, excitement, and pure joy! James and I have two little babies growing! I will find out tomorrow when they will be transfered back to me. It will either be Wednesday or Friday depending on how they are growing. Please pray that they will continue to grow and that they will stick on transfer day.

Thank you,

Amanda
