Hear ye, hear ye – the next time I start to throw a pity party someone remind me of this moment!
I swear, I feel like a dog that’s been kicked. With regards to IF I anticipate the worst constantly, mainly because that’s pretty much what’s it always been. I’m always cowering from the next blow. BUT, here’s what happened today.
When we got to our RE’s office for the transfer the Dr called us back to his office…weird. As it turns out 10 out of the 12 eggs were mature, and we had 7, not 6 that fertilized. Which means we’re well above my dreaded and feared 50% fertilization cut off. AND, 6 of the 7 of them are progressing very well, and we’ve been moved to a 5-day transfer! YIPPPEEEEEE!!! So, the criteria are Cell Number, Embryo Grade (Good, Fair, Poor), Cell Symmetry (Perfect, Moderate, Severe), and Percent Fragmentation. Here’s the stats on Day 3…
- 8, Good, Perfect, 0%
- 10, Good, Moderate, 5%
- 10, Good, Moderate, 10%
- 14, Good, Moderate, 0%
- 8, Good, Moderate, 15%
- 8, Good, Moderate, 5%
Sorry for being such a whiny downer lately. And for posting so much. I promise not to post again until after the transfer. In the meantime…
Hope is something you pee on
