Our transfer of two grade A eggs!

Yesterday we went in for the egg transfer! The doctor brought us in a room and told us that we have two grade "A" eggs! He said he saw that there wasn't any A's the day before so he talked to the eggs and told them to start working on things. Tyler's family told me that these two eggs must have started studying more-:) Anyway, We feel so blessed! It is an answer to our prayers. He showed us pictures of our eggs and the A's look great! The rest of the eggs will divide two more days and then they will freeze any other good eggs for when we want to do a transfer again.

We then went into the procedure room where I took a Valium for the first time (they told me that although I may think the Valium is for me, it is for my uterus- :) ). Then we were able to watch on the ultrasound as they put this long skinny syringe up in my uterus and implant the eggs (it's kind of similar to an artificial insemination procedure). It was pretty amazing! Then I lied there for an hour with a full bladder to help my eggs attach. Luckily the coordinator had me drink 24 fluid ounces so it wasn't that bad.

The doc told me that I will probably not feel better and might feel worse if I get pregnant (especially if it's with twins) :( I don't know why I've had so much more pain than most people, but it's so worth it and I actually do feel a little better this morning :) I was on bedrest yesterday and will be tomorrow and Saturday. We had a free hotel stay in mesa that we won a year ago...but i don't think we'll be going :)

I'm still at a higher risk of developing severe HOSS because of my symptoms and the amount of follicles (he said I already have it, but it's mild). I will be taking the six meds for a while still and I get the shot in the bum every day for 15 days total unless i get pregnant and then it will be a lot longer...urgh...

I felt good about going through with the procedure yesterday so I need to put my faith in my Heavenly Father. I know that it is only through the Lords grace, love and Atonement that I am able to progress in this life. I couldn't imagine doing this all by myself. He has truly, truly been with me every step of the way :) I feel so weak and ashamed that I have to depend on other people to help me out every day, but I have been comforted by God and am thankful that others have felt the spirit to serve me through meals, treats, flowers, phone calls/texts, blog messages and words of encouragement (especially Tyler-he has been sooooo wonderful and sweet :) ) I know Heavenly Father helps us all by the service of those people on earth and in Heaven. I was reading in Mosiah 3:19 where King Benjamin tells us to "put off the natural man... and become like a child, submissive,meek,humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord sees fit to inflict upon us, even as a child does submit to his father. " Sometimes it's hard to be willing to be patient and willing to submit to ALL things which the Lord sees fit to inflict upon us, but I have a testimony that these things are true and hope that I will be able to always follow these things and grow closer to my Savior so that I can have eternal life with my family :)

My next appointment (if everything goes ok) is in two weeks. They will see if everything is growing ok. Then a few weeks after that I will have my first ultrasound! :) This has been a hard, crazy journey, but hopefully are worthy and will be blessed and if we don't have a baby this time, we know it's not in Heavenly Father's plan for us and we will try again :)
