New Transfer date

We've got a new date to work toward. May 12th will be the next transfer. The mother didn't want to do a May 13th since it's a Friday the 13th, so we're going a day earlier. I have to fly out there though. Mid Iowa Fertility is being a jerk and won't accept M&K's embryos. They'll only use ones that they order themselves... which would defeat the whole purpose of this shindig.  argh.  Anyway, 25 days for me to get buff with Jillian Michaels. Let's hope and pray the two embryos I just agreed to transfer don't become twins.  eeeeeek!

Re: New Transfer date

  • Yay for a plan! Boo for having to fly there again. I'll be keeping you in my Ts&Ps.

    The 30 Day Shred is awesome! Only thing is, I find myself getting agry with Jillian while she's kicking my butt. :-)

  • lol yeah I'm not a huge Jillian fan but it's a good workout. I went with Ripped in 30 which has 4 levels. As sore as I am today I may never make it past level 1.  lol!

  • Um, I've been doing the 30 Day Shred for about a month (off and on) and I'm still on level 1. Embarrassed

    Not to be rude, because I appreciate your support, but that's not really funny in my book. I understand that you might not get the gravity of the situation as I haven't posted about it here, but I've spent a lot of time wrestling in my head over the decision between backing out and transferring two. (transferring one was not an option this time around - that changed from the original plan that I agreed to.) I am not comfortable with twins and this is a huge gamble for me. Here's the blog post that can kind of fill you in. I need all the help I can get to hope for just one. Sorry for being so sensitive about this. Again, I don't mean to be rude.

  • Why won't mif take their embryos? (I haven't read your blog in awhile, so I'm sorry if you posted about it there!) And poop for having to travel there :(

  • They won't take outside embryos. Only those they create  on site.  :(

  • What a bummer that MIF won't take them.  I'll be praying that this is your last trip there for a transfer and a baby sticks!!!!  I truly think about you every day and admire you for the gift you're giving.  I *sort of* stalk your blog.  You're awesome!
