Tomorrow is the big day!

Marty and I were on pins and needles all day waiting for the andrology lab to call us with a time for the transfer tomorrow. By 2:45, we were worried they had forgotten us, so we called them! A little while later, Aaron from the IVF lab called and said our time is 11:00 am. That's a perfect time- we'll be able to get the kids off to school, and go out to breakfast before we hit the clinic. Aaron said they would give us a picture of the embryos and Dr. Peterson would talk to us about how many to transfer. Marty and I are pretty much set on two, unless he gives us some compelling reason to do more than that.

We have relatives helping us get the kids taken care of after school and for lessons/games on Saturday. My sister in law Joyce is going to take them overnight both Friday and Saturday nights. It's starting to sound like a vacation! Tonight Marty is going to give me a priesthood blessing. So it seems like everything is falling into place.

I know that there is a big chance that this may not work, since the odds are 40%-60% that it will work (depending on maternal age). So that leaves 40%-60% chance that it won't work. I would certainly be disappointed but it has not been a bad experience at all up to this point.

On a different point, Joseph has started to come around. The thought of having a baby in the family doesn't bring him to tears anymore. He can talk about it, and even smile at the idea.
