Week 5

Even though our embryos were transferred only 3 weeks ago, we are in about "week 5" because we know the exact moment of conception.   I'm in constant fear that something is going to happen to these little beings that are not much bigger than  poppy seeds!  I was cramping yesterday and had myself convinced I was miscarrying.  It's a strange feeling because not only are we concerned about our little babies trying to grow, but this is it for us.  If our babies don't make it, we might not have children.  We really did put all our eggs in one "basket"!   All our money and time too.  Neither of us want to be retired when our kids are starting college (unless it's an early retirement!)  I just can't wait until Friday and we can see them growing and maybe even hear hearts beating.  We'll also know exactly what week we are in!  I'm sure it won't cure my worrying, but it will be one step closer.
