FET cycle start

A quick update - I had my baseline appointment on Tuesday - bloodwork and ultrasound. Everything looked good and I started estrace that evening. Starting an FET cycle is a lot less eventful than starting a fresh IVF cycle. Instead of shooting up every night, all I do is take a dainty little pill twice a day.  So it's pretty boring. I up my dose on Saturday to 2 pills twice a day and then go back on Wednesday to see how things are progressing. I really wish I had a clue as to when the transfer would happen. Hopefully on Wednesday they can give me an idea. I have to book a flight, hotel, rent a car, etc. Would like to get that done sooner than later!  It will probably be just me going out to NJ this time. My hubby recently got a job offer and starts working on the 13th. This is such a huge weight off our shoulders now that he will have a job!  So now I don't have to fret over the possibility that I'll have to book the trip at the last minute and incur extra costs. Of course extra costs are undesirable but at least we don't have to worry about how to pay for everything. And actually, our trip out to NJ for the ER was a lot cheaper than I anticipated so there is a bit of fluff that we have to work with to stay within our budget. 

I'm getting pretty antsy to get the transfer over with. Knowing we have an excellent embryo sleeping in a freezer makes me wish that it was in me already. All in due time I suppose.  Anxious about whether or not it will work, scared that it won't, making subtle preparations in case it does work (i.e.: I dyed my hair today).  I'm at the point where I really just need this to be over and either move on with a pregnancy or not.
