So I contacted the doc on my day one for June. Looks like the frozen transfer date will be around the 20th of August. Wow, we have an estimated date!
I have been thinking a lot about multiples lately and frankly triplets scare the crap out of me. I mean I have this one attempt at this, so I thought ok, I'll transfer 3 and have a good shot at getting one, but then Im reading some of these blogs where all 3 have stuck! There are complications for the Moms, for the babies, and nevermind having to raise 5 children...so I am just a little nervous to transfer 3. I think I will stick with 2. There is a fellow blogger who just transferred 3 and after TTC for years is pregnant with high numbers from the blood test. I am hoping for her sake as a single mother by choice it isn't more than 2. The little embryos can split! Causing quads or more, scary. I have reead that IVF has a high multiple rate due to assisted hatching etc. I will be stalking her blog tomorrow afternoon to find out what her ultrasound had to say.
So I am relatively young, been through 2 rounds of IVF before resulting in 1 child each. They both worked the first shot. I transferred 2 embies both times and ended up with one. I am torn... do I risk it and take this one chance I have and go with 3 or be truly realistic and just transfer 2. I know what I am leaning towards, but I just want it to work!

I am pretty sure I know what C's answer would be. She is terrified of have multiples of any sort. I know what the logical part of my brain is telling me I need to just go with that and stop agonizing over the decision!
