We have a tentative transfer date!! Woohoo! After emailing back and forth with the coordinator at the clinic, she has given me a possible transfer date of May 7th! I'm so excited, it is taking everything I have not to dance around my office right now - haha!
Turns out the other coordinator that I spoke with on Friday didn't have a clue what she was talking about. Yes, I have to go on birth control pills. However, the protocol is for a transfer 6 weeks from the start of the pill, which is the first/second week in May - which is exactly when we were looking to transfer anyway. So it all works out. :-)
The only bad part of all of this is that I'm on really gross antibiotics for the next 9 days. Turns out during all of my testing they found a bacterial infection that is supposedly very common. I asked a nurse friend of mine about it and he said it usually comes from a UTI that was not treated. But the antibiotics they have me on make me want to hurl! I have a very specific way of taking them which helps with the nausea but it doesn't make it completely go away. I eat, wait a 1/2 hour, then chug a half a bottle of Gatorade, take the pill, and chug the other half of the Gatorade. I look really silly at work sitting there chugging a bottle of Gatorade - lol!! In the long run, it doesn't matter. I'll do whatever I have to in order to give M&M a baby, so if it means taking nasty pills, then that's what I'll do. =-) Besides, I'll be sticking myself in the ass with a huge needle everyday for 8 weeks after the transfer, so I guess some nasty pills right now are pretty tame compared to that!
