Transfer Complete

Now the wait begins.

Both embryos thawed perfectly and looked good, according to the doctor. One is slightly more developed than the other, but he said there was no difference really between them. The whole procedure took 2 minutes, after which I lay there for 15 minutes and then left. Somehow it seemed so quick and simple for something so big and complicated.

I am back in my sweltering hotel room now. Its in the 90s outside and I think also in here because there is no air conditioning. I'm trying to lay still and relax but its pretty uncomfortable. 

Here are pictures of the two embryos before the transfer and me shortly afterwards ...

  1. Yay!! The embryos look great! And you look as relaxed as possible in a doctor's office. Remember to watch a funny movie and laugh a lot!

    Love, Cecilia

  2. I forgot about the laughing factor. It might be too hot for heavy laughter. Sure looks like one of them is a boy.

  3. Thanks for posting, I certainly thought of you this morning as soon as I woke up at 5 am (thank you Michael) and was wondering how you were doing. Hope you're able to relax a bit at least even with the heat. Is there a movie theater or museum in town with air conditioning?
    Love, Margaret
