A Quick Update....
I know a lot of you are waiting patiently for an update so here's a quick one. We got to Dr Acacio's office yesterday afternoon right on time (after a great meal at El Torito Grill) and learned quickly that only one of the two embryos survived. It was a big shock for Jill and a big bummer. That means the chances are even lower but we are holding out hope that this lil embryo they transferred yesterday was strong and healthy and viable. The transfer was relatively easy and quick. The most uncomfortable thing is you have to come with a full bladder and then they use the ultrasound machine and push on your belly to where you just about pee. I think the transfer only took about 20 min from start to finish and then I laid in the room and got the full history of Jill's journey over the last three years while we waited for the okay. Finally, I was able to get dressed and we got our discharge instructions and we were gone.Bedrest is hard. Its not in me to relax and let people help me. I hate having to be on the couch and watching the boys play. But I'm doing it. Today is better than yesterday and I'm proud to say, I haven't gotten up from the couch in over 3hrs and almost dozed off while my mom took the boys for.a walk.So Jill left early this am as they got the keys to their new home on Wednesday afternoon and they are moving this weekend (hopefully before the snowstorm). It was great to see her and get the chance to really spend some time together. Its amazing how us girls have the gift of gab. :)Anyway, I'm on my blackberry and my fingers are cramping typing on this miniscule keyboard so I am signing odd for now. Oh oh oh funny thing. I forgot my memory card for my camera at home in Visalia and so Jill had her camera...or so we thought. She left it in her bag and when we were putting on out hairnets and booties, she realized it wasn't in her purse. Sorry guys...lol but I said no promises.Please pray that this lil embryo sticks. I really want James and Jill to have a shot at being some great parents. They deserve it.Love ya guys!!!
