Re: 1st IVF Treatment started

Neha,

We had 5 eggs retrieved on Wednesday the 9th, and then we received an email yesterday that only 2 had fertilized and that they wanted to do a two day transfer. So I had to run around trying to get my work sorted out and get another acupuncture visit in there. We had the transfer this morning. They were 2 - 4 cell grade 1 embryos!!! The transfer was really - for lack of a better word - cool. I watched on the screen as they put the embryos right into the uterus and then there was a white flash, which is the water bubbles from the catheter holding the embryos. And then they took a sonogram picture. I have it hanging on my refrigerator, even though my husband thinks it is strange, to keep me positive for the next two weeks of waiting. It sounds like you will have a lot of frozen ones to chose from, that is awesome!! It looks like our month of May isn't turning out so bad for either of us.....I got two good ones transferred and you were able to fertilize 24!! Yay us!

Michelle

Re: 1st IVF Treatment started

Michelle,

Fabulous news....how are you feeling these days? i bet the pic must be so awesome to look at everyday...wishing you all the best...hope the 2 weeks fly by for you....and the test comes out with some fabulous news

My estrogen level is still coming down... hopefully quickly since my breasts are still so tender to touch, feel like i am carrying golf balls inside...they are sooooo heavy...lol...this is all expected apparently the bloated tummy will last too till i start my periods...

Keep me posted on your progress...

Re: 1st IVF Treatment started

Good news! I have my pic of embryos - 9 of them...two which were transferred. This was the round that gave me my pregnancy. I plan to blow up my pic and have it framed and hang it in my house. It will definitely be a conversation starter.
