Marcia-- that's a great fertilization report!!!
Gracie--I aint gonna lie girlfriend... i was completely knocked out for my ER, but when i woke up, i was in horrible amounts of pain!! it felt like someone kicked me in the stomach multiple times . i was supposed to go back to work the next day, but couldn't move for like 2 days and was on all sort of pain killers. BUT i hear a lot of women do not experience all of that. i think everyone is different, so maybe you'll luck out! i was SOOO nervous for my ET, but it was a complete breeze. no pain, no sweat.

I actually quit my job about 4 weeks ago. I was a regional manager for an environmental testing lab and they wanted me to start traveling more and I already felt like I traveled too much and I knew the IVF was coming up so DH and I decided to be stress free for my IVF so I quit. In fact I would be scheduled to be at a huge conference during the week of my ER/ET and If I didn't go I probably would have been fired. I think they would have fired me if they even knew I was TTC so I couldn't ask about it.
If it is BFN, I will look for something and if it's BFP, then I will just be a preg housewife and hopefully SAHM. It has poured here all day and I can't work in the yard so I have been sitting here all day pretty much. It's been nice though, I have worked fulltime since I was 16 so it's a big change.
