Well this time around was like a whirl wind. I kept in contact with the last case manager(I will see if I can use her name in blogs to follow) I had with the twins. When she e-mailed me to wish me happy holidays I gave her the update and she informed me that she would love to work with me again. So I thought about this and decided, hey what the heck this could only improve my chances to find the right couple. So I called her on Dec. 23rd and let her know to go ahead and put my profile back up on their site Fertility-Miracles. She called me back and said that she knew who I should be matched with, so she needed to talk to them and see where they we at. So then I waited for like a day and got an e-mail saying that they would love to have a conference call and when would I be available. I told them that I could do it that day or anytime that week. That was on the 24th and they said they could do it on the 26th, I was o.k. with this so I replied not a problem. Read the rest of this entry »

O.k. so back in November (I know I have not been updating like I should… sorry) we tried one more time.

Now here I was trying to talk the parents into transferring more than they were comfortable with… what a difference a year and a half can make. So we finally decided on Read the rest of this entry »

So the transfer was a success and they implanted two embryos. I had my 48 hours of bed rest and then I went to the dollor tree and got about eight pregnancy tests (I know what your thinking…. pregnancy test from the dollar tree? Well they are suppose to be the first ones to pick up the hormone level, according to the surrogacy sites) So I started testing the day that I could get up… nothing. I tried twice the next day and more nothing. The following day only one test and nothing. The fourth day nothing. On the fifth day I got a positive after a long wait. I tried again on the sixth day to be sure and it came back positive. I got the same result on the seventh day. My sister bought me a “real” test, First Response and that too said that I was pregnant. So the next day I was to have the blood test done the official results. I should say that both the parents and I were really excited, finally after all this time we were going to produce a baby.
