I believe in signs

As Day 3 was approaching I couldn't help but wonder how my embabies were doing - were they going to call me with an update to keep me in the loop? Nothing. No call. The only thing that was keeping me sane was telling myself that no call meant we had to have a least one still going strong, right?

Day 4 passes - still no call.

Day 5 hits and today is the day they freeze who ever made it and send out for testing. God my stomach was in knots all morning - praying my phone would not ring. Hubs and I went to a baseball game that night and it was still hard for me not to let my head wander. We discussed about whether or not I should call, hubs told me I should. Deep down I think he might have been a little worried too, but will never admit it.

Day 6 arrives. Fuck it, I'm calling. The worst they can say is that I've had nothing make it to test and you are going to have to start all over. I went in to work late that day so I called before I left the house. As I dove into the mounds of paperwork on my desk, 'that number' comes across my phone. I asked her if she could please let me know how many made it to test. 'I'm sorry, I don't have that information up with me.' Well shit woman, you best find it - why else do you think I was calling!!!! What felt like hours - which I'm sure was probably a hot minute in real time - she informed me that we had 2 make it to Day 5 and that we have a total of 3 that are going to be tested (one from our first cycle that we froze). Well alright then. I can handle that for today. She told me she would call once she had the results/next protocol from my RE.

I emailed hubs to let him know the number and he was just as pleased. God, please let there be one normal in there.

While I was swimming in a sea of papers I suddenly stopped what I was doing and started to laugh. It hit me.

Let's backtrack for a second.
Driving in to work I was listening to the song Chandelier and the part where she's singing 1,2,3...3 I told myself that I would be psyched if they told us we had 3 today.

Back to me sitting at my desk laughing.....huh, would you look at that - we did end up with 3. Why hello random sign of the day. Maybe I should go play the lottery now!

One less hurdle to jump over.....Two more to go!
