Thank you for your wonderful, supportive comments.
Things went very well on Friday: we transferred two beautiful embryos, both Grade 1.
One was a blast, the other was an X-Blast.
And of course we forgot what the ‘X’ stood for and have been calling it the X-TREME Blast ever since. Sounds more like a new treat at Dairy Queen than a possible future baby, but there you go!
I will post more about both the PGD (the pre-implantation genetic testing they did) and the infusion I had last week, because several of you have e-mailed me about it and in my last post I was sadly lacking in the details department.
(What? Friends don’t let friends blog after a four-hour infusion of somebody else’s immunoglobulin!!)
So here you go:
And BeBop worked a little of his magic on this one, which he sent to his parents. So, yes. Now my in-laws have been up close and personal with my uterus, my cervix and my VERY full bladder. How nice.
(In case you can’t read it, he helpfully added: Walker & Texas Ranger right here!)
those are some good looking (and hatching, if I see it right) blasts, my friend. You did good!
Beautiful blasts!!
I am crossing everything for you, Watson!
wow, Walker & Texas Ranger look great!
Looking good! Good luck!
Walker and Texas Ranger indeed, heh heh heh.
Cute insides…
Fingers crossed.
Shoot, now I have that song stuck in my head… “One, two, three get loose now!”
Congratulations on a successful transfer!!! May Walker and Texas Ranger stick around for, oh, a good 9 months or so.
GOOD LUCK!
GOOD LUCK!
GOOD LUCK!
That’s beautiful Watson! Go, Blasts, Go!
oh they look perfect! congratulations, and best of luck!!!!
Woo hoo! You transferred two! Looking forward to the end of the two-week wait.
YAY!!! They look great, Watson-Good luck!
I had a laugh in my coffee when I saw Walker & Texas Ranger – Talladega Nights is MrP’s fave movie!
Yay on having 2 bewdiful blasts in there… x
I love a good Rob Base reference (although, I will also be singing the song for the rest of the day.
Glad the transfer went well–and best of luck! I hope you get two lines in two weeks! 🙂
Yay! Good luck! And may they (or he/she) have inherited your kick ass sense of humor. And of course, your husband’s as well (because one must assume he’s pretty funny too).
We just watched that movie over the weekend! Hilarious!

Ooooh, pretty pretty embryos! I really hope they’ve already snuggled in nice and tight 😀
How cool is that–I hadn’t seen embies hatching before. Walker and Texas Ranger — GOTTA LOVE IT!
Good luck Watson, I hope those beautiful blasts do their thing!
they are some fine lookin embryos !!! Hoping they get comfortable and stick around !!!
I am so excited for you. YIPEE!
I am so excited for you…My fingers are crossed!!!
Watson~great omen…flipped on the tv this morning when doing dishes and watched WTR!!(haven’t seen it in years) then sat down here to read some blogging….it is a strange and curious sign 🙂
Sweet JAY-SUS woman, how much water did you drink?
I love the names of your embryos. I think it’s fantastic you’ve made it so far. Isn’t it exciting to view the ultrasound and to get a pic of the embryos, even when you haven’t a clue what the various bits are?
Now please get pregnant. That would make me happy.
Walker and Texas Ranger are definitely hatching… a great sign! Congratulations to have them “on board” and I hope your 2ww goes by quickly, with the best possible result at the end…!
So exciting! And, you gotta love those names.
Good luck! I so hope it works and that you get your Walker and Texas Ranger.
Beautiful. All things crossed.
Yay! Go little embies. Glad the transfer went well.
Looking good, Watson. Loved the video’s BTW. Now I am even more terrified of IVF than before! 🙂
Holding thumbs for your little embies.
I’m hoping those blasts enjoy your uterus so much they want to stay for a long time!
Whooo Hooo!!!
peace
