                           Acupuncture before and after transfer.
                           Symptom - mild cramping

Transfer was a little harder than the previous time but not too painful. Transfer was done with an empty bladder and that cause some difficulty in visualizing the catheter through ultrasound. The doctor finally saw the catheter and transferred two embryo's. The 4AA embryo thawed perfectly, but the 3AA was not so good. The picture for the 3AA one looked quite different. Came home and started my 3 days of light activity.

I am going from extreme belief to extreme denial that this cycle is going to work. I really want it to and cannot believe I need to wait 5 more days for my first beta. As usual my clinic does not call after the first beta so I will have to call the lab directly and find out the results myself. I cannot do HPT's this time as I am giving myself the HCG booster shots. I am planning to do one on the day of beta - Sep3.
