Pregnant in a Dish!!

I received the call from my IVF coordinator that 20 of my 21 eggs were mature, and 11 of them fertilized with ICSI.  We are so thrilled.  We were hoping that 10 would fertilize to give us something to work with, and 11 is even better!! We are officially pregnant in a dish; I cannot believe it!!  The embryologist is going to call us with an update on Saturday morning to let us know how our little embryos are doing.  I will be happy if we have 2 to transfer on Monday, but hoping we’ll have more to put on ice in case this first round doesn’t work, or for some siblings down the road.  Please keep our little embies in your prayers!! Love you all!

  1. Yay for the embies!!!! This is the exciting part and you guys have come so far to get here. I'm very proud of you for sticking through it. Hard work and dedication does pay off and now you have those little guys (or girls =) waiting for transfer. I'm praying that the next few days gets those embies a perfect grade for you.

  2. Thanks so much, Ashley!! We're so excited, that we've at least made it this far!! I'm closer to being a mother than I've ever been. I can't believe my body made 20 mature eggs, I'm proud! haha :)
