Well yesterday was my transfer. I cannot begin to tell you how stressful it was. Everything was going wrong yesterday and the day before. First let me step back and tell you what happened in the beginning.

 My original transfer date was supposed to be on Tuesday today. But on Saturday I looked at all my paperwork and realize that I had started all my medicines a day early. So of course I freaked out and called the exchange number. I talked with the doctor on call and she said that we will have to do the transfer a day early on Monday. So when I got off the phone I switched my flight and the next morning we were off to San Diego. The flight was horrible it was just me and Emma. My mom had to come the next day which was the original day we had planned to come. Emma screamed the entire four hours. I was not very popular on the plane. I ended up staying with a friend of mine about 40 minutes away from the clinic. I had to get up extremely early to go in for 715 ultrasound. Then my transfer was at noon. The day started off great everything was going as planned and went in for my ultrasound and everything looked good they said see you at noon. The hotel let me check in early and I went and got some groceries. As I was leaving the grocery store though my mom called me and said that her flight was delayed and they had no idea when it was going to be in. Something was wrong with the plane. So I called my friend really fast and she raced out here to watch Emma while I went and had the transfer done. I called and uber cab when I was ready to go. The stupid over driver got lost and then I ended up having to drive myself and was 20 minutes late. Embryologist told me that they couldn't saw the good embryo because it had already asked and was a day six embryo. Therefore it was too fragile to transfer his preferred to be a last resort. So the embryo I had transferred was a fair quality embryo. When they brought me back to the room they looked at my bladder and said it was not full enough so my legs were in the air and I had to drink four glasses of water and wait. I felt like my bladder was going to explod.  Finally though the embryos transferred and hopefully it's all snuggled in and ready for a nine month journey. My mom met me at the hospital she took a cab from the airport. So she was able to drive my car back to the hotel. 

 So that was all the craziness that happened before the transfer. Now on to my bed rest. I got back to the hotel and latex on the couch. Emma is not to thrilled about this whole thing. She want me to put her to sleep and wants me to hold her. Last night was the first night she ever slept with me. She would not sleep in the pack n play. So my mom brought her in bed with us. Worst idea ever! She kicked us all night, kept waking up crying, stole my pillow and blankets, started picking my nose, naming every facial feature by poking me and got face to face and breathed on me with her horrible toddler breath. Let me tell you it was so much fun!! 

 I have had to pick her up a few times. This worries me a little. I'm only supposed to get up to pee. I really hope that this doesn't hurt anything. I'm sure plenty of other people have gone through the same issues having a toddler while on bed rest. Anyway, that's what's been going on.  Im resting in my room now and my mom is taking Emma to the pool.
