Anything else you would have wanted to know before you started this process! The process can be stressful & emotional, but well worth it. Make sure you are mentally prepared. Also, the progesterone shots continue until 12 weeks. Finally, some Dr.s use a cathetor to drain your baldder after the transfer - not fun. This gave me a bladder infection...beware.
