A Change of Fortune

8.7 mm. Holla!

Since we last talked, I received a reassuring call from my Nurse, who again asserted that my uterus was lovely (blush, blush) and instructions to start taking 2 mg of my estrace vaginally. Yeah, just shove them up there. Being a good IF patient, I do anything my Nurse tells me. Stand on my head - sure. Turn around 3 times counterclockwise after drinking water - no problem. Stick pills up my cooch - why not.

So I did. The pill part, not the rest. And lo and behold, 4 days later (and a bit of bloating and cramping) my beautiful lining is now beautifully thick at 8.7 mm.

Word.

Nurse pulled me into a consultation room and we started mapping out the next few days right away. Progesterone begins tomorrow. Transfer is scheduled for Tuesday. Tuesday!!

Bonus: not only did I make the 10 am train, I had time to pick up some chocolate raspberry decaf and a chocolate muffin (don't tell hubby about that last one) for the ride home. AND made a few quick business calls (woo woo look at the multi-tasker....) that could result in some nice income for my employer.

Bonus Bonus: Since the FET is delayed, I actually can go out tonight to see my favorite local band with some of my favorite people without fear of smokiness and dancing affecting little ones newly placed inside. A last hurrah. Hurrah!
