More Embryos to Freeze

The embryologist called today, and they were able to freeze all 6 remaining embryos. That gives us 9 that are frozen, 2 are rated AA, 2 are rated AB, and 5 are rated BB. Strange to think about...

Auto Email

We have added some of our families' email addresses to send an auto-email when we make a new post.

Embryo Transfer

I am home from the Embryo Transfer.... We transfered 2 Grade AA!!!
We froze 3 today & are waiting on 6 more to see if they grow to the correct stage before Wednesday then they will freeze them! I am now 2 weeks 5 days pregnant with twins. We have added their first baby pictures below.... the 1st ones name is Wall and the 2nd ones name is Fence.... just kidding Nita!

Embryo Update

We got an update on our embryos today.... they said that 12 of them appear to be growing really well and he (embyrologist) expects to have many really great embryos to choose from on Monday! Whoo-Hoo!

Fertilization Report!

Hello All.... Just wanted to let everyone know that we had 13 off our eggs fertilize. So we have 13 embryos growing in a dish! We have been told that on average they expect about 50% of them to divide and grow to day 5 embryos. We are scheduled to have the best 2 transferred back in to their home on Monday at 9:00am.

After the Egg Retrieval

We had our retrieval his morning. We had to be at the center at 7:00am which is about an hour away, so an early morning for us. They got 18 eggs and we will know tomorrow how many of them fertilized. I just took a 3 hour nap and am feeling pretty good thus far except a minor headache and some pains in the stomach. We will know more tomorrow yet again..... Thanks for checking in!

Time for Egg Retrieval

So at my appt. yesterday I got the go ahead for the trigger shot and am having the egg retrieval tomorrow. We have to be at the center at 7:00am and I am thinking we will leave there around 11:00am. I am hoping for lots of good eggs and we will know how many they got before we leave. We will not know how many of them fertilized until the next day when they call me. I will post a report on how many eggs were retrieved tomorrow afternoon!
