Sigh of Relief!!

Well i still feel like complete horse dung but the whole process is OVER. The progesterone is causing some major stomach issues and im having a hard time breathing while laying down. That could a sign of OHSS (overstimulation) so im trying to rest up and drink lots of fluids, but its no fun. But ill do whatever i need to to get my healthy babes :)

OK so its been awhile, lets see. Wednesday was AWFUL! I had to wait ALL day to get the PGD results. The doctor finally called around 630pm and told me we had 2 healthy petri-babies to transfer on thursday!! WOO-HOO!

I was so thrilled we had healthy ones. Now going into this IVF we did it to find answers for the 4 m/c's, we didnt know if we were going to find any, so its been pretty rough. But when i got that phone call i KNEW we found the reason i just didnt know what it was yet ( i only have 2 healthy babies out of 13!) Dr. P said shed call me in the am to let me know what time the transfer was going to be and give me the full report.

So 7am came yesterday and i found out WHY i was m/cing!!! Both pete and i have screwy sperm and eggs.

Heres the report: (its takes a minute to comprehend it)

X0 - Monosomy X and 18 - Means egg fertilized but pete didnt give an X or a Y,but the embie was damanged anyways (monosomy 18)

XY - normal - little boy!

XXX - polyploid - could be a dmaged egg or sperm (girl)

XX- Trisomy 16 (girl)

XY- normal - another BOY!

X0- again no X or Y from pete but the egg had trisomy 15
X0- again pete didnt give up the goods! - egg was normal

XX- another girl but monosomy 18 and trisomy 15

So we transferred 2 BOYS!! Can you believe it! My family is all girls and pete is all boys. I hope both stick! but ill be happy with one healthy baby :)

This has been a very tough couple weeks and now i just wait for my beta on the 27th. To tell you the truth im not even counting the days, im trying to stay calm and not think about it. BUt ive been talking to Chico and Horhay (petes NN for them! lol).

Thanks everyone for your support!!!!
