Fert report

I am delighted to be able to report that we have ...


16 embies cooking away. They recovered 19 eggs and 16 so far are looking 'terrific'. Dr J was very happy (since Dh has such crappy sperm) but reminded me to be caustious in my celebrating until they could see what was what after the weekend.

but still


whoooohoooooooooo


Transfer is on Tuesday morning.

And we have been told to fill out the paperwork for cryopreservation, since we may well have some to freeze.

PHEW!!!


Soapchick - thank you from the bottom of my heart. If it weren't for you ... whatever happens... thank you.

  10. 19 retreived and 16 fertilized?! Incredible! I'd say your DH hit one out of the park! So Tuesday it's your turn. Stay calm, stay positive, and know that we're all here praying and hoping and pulling for you. Yay, Dr. J!

  11. Fantastic news! 16 is definitely a lucky number. Here's hoping for an easy transfer and nine months of barfing. (Okay, maybe 3 months of that and 6 months of planning a nursery.) Love,
    Elizabeth

  12. Holy crap! 16! YAY to soup and DVDs and lying flat and a 5 day transfer. that is so awesome.
    not liking the random cervix opening but hey, hopefully just a few more times, and each time for a good reason-- to get those babies in and to let them out.

    GOOD LUCK!
