One more day until we will know the outcome of this cycle.
We are really excited for tomorrow to come. It's been a strange thing this cycle to not be able to test ahead. On one hand, it has made the process more enjoyable, because we can just entertain the possibility that there is still life inside of me while realizing the impossibility of having an answer yet. On the other hand, not being able to test is sheer torture. Will and I are trying to stay in the moment, but it is very, very difficult. Honestly, whatever the outcome, we are more than ready to know. We remain cautiously hopeful, but really, we have no idea what we will find out tomorrow.
On other fronts, out of sheer necessity, I have managed to complete a final draft of my entire dissertation - all 170 pages of it. As of yesterday, the copies were delivered to my school and turned in to my committee. I will meet with them in a couple of weeks for the next-to-last step to get their feedback. After I make those changes, I will be - finally - headed for the oral defense. I cannot wait to be done. This degree process has been so much more intensive and grueling than I could have ever envisioned. I have learned much, but I really look forward to finishing. It has been years of seemingly never-ending work.
So. Tomorrow. Hopefully it will be here before we know it. And maybe, just maybe, we will have a good outcome. It doesn't seem likely given out track record so far, but we are so wanting a positive outcome. Please, Universe, we've paid our dues!!
We promise to post once we have news. As always, thank you so much for your thoughts, your comments, your support.

Congrats on your dissertation- necessity is one hell of a motivator-- GOOD FOR YOU!
Thinking of you and hoping you have a wonderful day that passes quickly and that tomorrow brings you news of wondrous things. warmly, Kate
I'm keeping everything crossed for you, I really hope that tomorrow brings the news you've been waiting for.
I'm convinced that the odds are in your favor this time! I'm so anxious for you!
YAY on your diss! Must feel like being near the finish line of a long marathon.
Fingers doubly and triply crossed for tomorrow and CONGRATULATIONS on handing in your dissertation that is fantastic. Can you give us a hint of the topic?
i really hope you have a good outcome tomorrow :)
and it feels so good to be done with the dissertation. i did have some time afterwards that i just felt "wrong" b/c i felt like i should be doing something else....but there was nothing else to do. ...except it for publication! :)
I'm waiting and hoping with you! I hope that tomorrow brings great news.
Praying for the day to speed by. You can bet that I will be stalking your blog all day long waiting for your beta results. I am so hopeful for you guys! And congrats on the huge feat of completing your first draft of that beast!
Holding good thoughts:)
the very best of luck from here.
I deleted my other comment because it had some serious type-os in it that made me look fairly slow...
Anyway...I am sending loads and loads of good luck wishes your way! Try not to judge the possibility for a positive outcome based on past cycles--view this one entirely on its own merit. You transferred some good looking embies! Everything is crossed for you!
I am proof that you never what God can do. I had 4 negative IUIs, 4 negative IVFs, and then conceived on our own! No givens in this game!
I am so hopeful for you and Will! Sending you all kinds of good vibes...
And congrats on the dissertation -- what an accomplishment!
Always thinking about you two and praying for you. I hope tomorrow brings you so much happieness. I am in awe of you and your work through school. I wish I were as talented and dedicated as you. Good luck honey!

One more day yay! I have everything crossed. I am hoping and opraying you dream finally comes true. I can't wait to hear the good news!
Good luck tomorrow!
Congratulations on the final draft. I can't even explain how good it feels once the oral is over... then again it is a bit anticlimatic. I felt so relieved but overall the difference in my physical feeling was like someone had been hitting me in the head with a hammer for 5 years and one day it just stopped :)
You will be in my thoughts tomorrow. I can't imagine not being able to cheat! I would die!!! I am rooting for you though for some good news finally.
Praying for nothing but good news tomorrow!!!
Will the hcg that you're taking (that is keeping you from accurately testing with a pee stick) affect the beta? Sorry if that is a stupid question, just wondering how that all works.
Praying for you and Will to get awesome news tomorrow.
I am keeping you in my thoughts.
I hope this is it.
Gibson,
Good question. My RE says we should "have a good idea" by the beta number. I think by tomorrow most of the booster should be out of my system and if pregnant, there should be a decently high number. Then we check to see if it keeps going up, doubling, just be sure...that's my understanding at least.
