No new updates from me, but I hope everyone else is doing well and would love to hear what’s going on. I’m traveling to Chicago in a few weeks for an appointment with Dr. KK, but I’m like 80% (?) sure we’ll go with surrogacy.

Looks like my transfer was successful, first two betas were 356 and 1014. I go back for another beta next Tuesday, then a viability scan the week after. Fingers crossed everything keeps looking good.

Maybe spoke too soon. Had some cramping this morning and a big gush of blood with a small clot. Lay down for a bit and next time I went to the bathroom a little more stuff passed (didn't realize it til I saw it), looked less like a clot and more like stringy kinda tissue maybe. I'm not super optimistic, though I'm not sure how much blood/material to expect at 5 weeks. I'll go for some labs in the morning, also not really sure how soon that would reflect a loss.
We're having a second opinion appointment on Thursday. We may be done after that, depending on the news, or move to donor eggs. We're unsure. My H is very concerned about me carrying--has a sort of superstition that if I can't get pregnant, maybe my body is trying to tell us something. I have slacked on acupuncture since learning my tubes are blocked, and we basically took the month off, at least mentally.
Thanks for the good thoughts. My labs still looked good today and I haven't had more bleeding, so I am hopeful again. Recheck on Tuesday.
Excellent news! I’ll keep you in my thoughts!
I’m gearing up for my ERA cycle. I except my period over the weekend. The though of having to drive 2 hour for monitoring is overwhelmingly horrid, so I hope all of this is worth it!
