Hi, back from transfer.  All went well.  They thawed two and they both survived so they transferred both.  Now begins my tww.

Today is your transfer so when you can let me know how it went. Then we can wait together.

Thank you ladies! Leatha yes we are only a day apart. This is my first ivf so I'm really excited and nervous. I only had three out of 18 eggs fertilized so I'm really hoping this takes since I really won't have any left for freezing. Good luck tomorrow, let me know how it goes!

Be sure you are not putting your weight on that leg, when you shoot yourself in the hip.

Hello and welcome.  I am waiting anxiously tonight for my transfer tomorrow so we are really close in our cycles.  

As far as the shots go I have heard some ladies use ice to numb the area first and that seems to help.  I have not tried that though,   I just do it as quickly as I can so it's over as soon as possible.  It is just something that needs to be done and I just don't think about it too much and just do it.  Although in my last pregnancy I was soooooooo happy to have week 12 roll around so I could stop the injections.  That was a happy day for sure!

Good luck with your transfer on Tuesday.   Please let me know  how it goes.  It's nice to have company on the tww!
