2WW (Two Week Wait)

If you or anyone you know has done anything with infertility, you have heard about the two week wait. This is the wait time between your procedure (time you would have ovulated) and your pregnancy blood test.

Many many emotions go through your head at this time. At the beginning the feeling of relief that you made it to this point is amazing! You receive a picture of your sweet embryo and I always instantly fall in love.

This is a picture of my sweet day 6 little girl blastocyst. She has already hatched and is ready to snuggle into my uterus (omg I hope).

This was a long road to FET so I was extra excited to make it. The hardest part is how bad you need to pee before, because your bladder has to be full for transfer. I really couldn’t think about anything but that for a while. Then you get to see your sweet little embryo released into your uterus and it is just perfect.

After your 30 minutes of laying down time, you are off to your car. I always lay down in the back seat because I would do anything to help my baby stick.

And just like that all that planning, hoping, and preparation is done. You still have shots to take and medicine to take, but it’s now just a waiting game. I eat my pineapple that people say helps with implantation, I rest for 24 hours, and I do anything I can to relax and pray my baby sticks and grows.

Yesterday was all busy and excitement, today is the beginning of the long wait. You may think 10 days isn’t very long, but when your in it, it lasts an eternity. Some people take home pregnancy tests and the infertility groups are filled with pics of them. Some women do what they are supposed to do and wait. And then there is me who already has her friend looking up estimated timelines so I know more info.

(She was frozen at day 6 and already has hatched, so I am hoping she is attaching right now).

I can’t allow any negative thoughts or worries because I have to take one day at a time. I can’t think about losing another baby because last time changed me forever. I can’t think about her not sticking around because this is my one and only little girl and every part of me needs to meet her and hold her.

So I will wait. I will lay in bed today and pray and think very pregnant thoughts. I will talk to my belly constantly and eat my pineapple. And then tomorrow I will go about my normal life knowing that things will never be the same.

Two week wait…. you are honored to have made it here but wish it would hurry up and yet don’t because you just want your baby!
