The Stats Are In

I got the big call from Dr. P this morning and the results were not good to say the least. Of my 10 eggs retrieved, only 3 were mature and only 2 of the 3 fertilized. I'm still in shock and a bit numb. I'm not sure what to think.

Based on the fact that I only have 2 fertilized embryos, Dr. P wants to do a 2-day transfer tomorrow. So, I'm going in tomorrow at 11am.

I just don't understand how we had only 3 mature eggs...Did we trigger too soon? Did we stim too long? If we had stimmed longer would the other eggs have matured? I just don't get it.

I guess all we can do is wait.

*hugs* I'm sorry you didn't have many eggs fertilize. Maybe you won't need to worry about that anyways because your transfer will be a success. Good luck!

ugh, i'm really sorrry sooz. you know if anyone understands this, it's me. did you they do in vitro maturation on the other eggies like my embryologist did to mine??

please don't fret. i know it's annoying when ppl say this, but it only takes that 1. did they grade the 2 that they're gonna put back tomorrow?

xoxoxo. *goodluck* tomorrow. will be thinking about you.

giant (((HUGS))) all I can say is that I've been there, & I know how you feel right now, but 2 is better than none. that's 2 chances of a successful pregnancy. I'm crossing everything I have that you have 2 rock star embies!
