Shelley,
Thanks for the encouragement. Really, the 2ww is not that bad as I am afraid to hear that it did not work--at least now I can still hope. I was devastated after the tx when I understood that this is our one chance. It took me at least a full day to get my head past that. I think it was a coping strategy, to have a backup/security. It helped me to think I had a contingency plan. Now? I'm afraid to hope to much, so trying to keep busy and wish for the best! I know that if this works it will have been worth it, many times over. It really helps to read others' IF history and then see BFP at the end, that's for sure.
