The Frozen Embryo Transfer - The Final Go - Pregnancy Blood Test
Posted on May 5th, 2008

Off we set at 07:17 this morning to IVF Hammersmith for our pregnancy blood test. Obviously, I already knew there was a strong likelihood that I might be pregnant, having had a positive urine test earlier this week but with our experience in January in mind, I was not going to prejudge the outcome of this test.
In the last couple of days, I've had very light spotting which is apparently a sign of the embryo burrowing into the womb wall. I have also been feeling very tired, uncharacteristically and extremely irritable (as my husband will testify) and a little bit queasy in the morning.
Anyhow, one of the nurses rang me at about 12:00 with the great news that I am pregnant and that the hormone levels are normal. I have to return in a couple of weeks for a pregnancy scan.
It's still very early days so although very pleased that the last year has not been wasted, I am aware that it's very early days.

new life, new life! although modern man's sperm count has plummeted in the last 30 years … could tv, fast food, poor nutrition, medicinals, and em radiation have made us less potent as males?
I mean, we need Viagra, for god's sake! :-)
question: are men less men today in general than times of yore?
and by that, I don't just mean brute force, I mean in character, strength, ability.
