1 Eggie, 2 Eggie, 3 Eggie, 4

So ya.... do you believe it, we have 4 eggs harvested. I was only told we had 3 follies so we must have had a bonus grow over the weekend.

And you know what, I didn't really feel much discomfort at all.  My pulse-ox was a little low so we had to sit around to bring that up. Dr. D. came in to congratulate us on the 4 eggs and off we went.  I slept for the rest of the day really.  The anesthesia makes me loopy and tired.  This seriously was the easiest surgery I ever had.  I didn't even need to take a Tylenol! 

So the very next morning (Tuesday) at 7:15 am one of the OR nurses called to tell me that 3 fertilized and they were still waiting on the 4th.  OMFG!!!!!  Are you serious?  I have 3 babies in the making????? Do you know what this means?  I actually have the ability to get pregnant!?!?  Holy cow!  What a miracle.  One more hurdle down!  We scheduled transfer for Saturday.  Unfortunately I would not get another report on the embryos until then.  The nurse said based on the progress the embies made overnight, they are recommending 5 day transfer.  This way we can give them an extra 2 days to grow and have more information about what one is the healthiest.  We will then transfer the healthiest embryo and freeze the rest in the event we need them later. 

Wow.... this is possible!  I can't believe it!  We are pregnant in a petri dish!
