Sending you a big hug, Shellster - well done for getting the visit out of the way. Writing sounds exciting! That's always my escape, too. Good luck with that - and wherever it takes you, hope you have fun.
It was a day 2 transfer for me. We'd decided to transfer up to 3, given my history, and the fact that this is likely to be our last go. And then, we only got 4 eggs (I know, I know - I cannot tell you how disappointed I was when I came round. The embryologist kept saying to me "but they look good - you wouldn't believe how many women I speak to who would be absolutely delighted with 4" - but I'd had 8 good size follicles and 2 small ones, and in my head, the only "what if" was if there would be 8 or 10 eggs, having had 5/5 last time, so yes, I was gutted, especially since the whole point of short protocol was more eggs, of better quality. But then, I'm six months older, aren't I?). One of the 4 didn't divide, so we only had 3 left, and we had decided to transfer 3, so they suggested there was no point in waiting.
2 of the 3 had divided a lot for day 3 - 6 and 7 cells, which apparently is not good: they can burn out if they start off too quickly, so that was another good reason for getting them back inside me asap. The other one was 4-cells, which was right for the timeframe. They were all grade 2-3 apparently.
On the writing theme, I've taken the time off work since my transfer, going back on Monday, and I'm going to spend today researching literary agents and sending out emails. I write children's stories as a hobby and it's time I tried to something with them. It's been a lifelong ambition and I'm 41....if it's going to happen, I need to make it happen!
