I just called the IVF lab to get my fertilization report and we officially have 12 eggs fertilized! They divided the 19 eggs into two groups, 9 to be fertilized naturally and 10 for ICSI (where they inject one sperm into the egg). Out of the 9 to be fertilized naturally, 6 fertilized and three didn’t; for the ICSI group, 6 fertilized and 4 were immature and didn’t fertilized.
I will most likely have my transfer on Sunday, November 11. The RE didn’t even mention doing a 5 day transfer as an option and told DH to keep Sunday (day 3) open for the transfer. I’m finally starting to feel a little excited about our chances! Amazing to think that our genetic material is sitting in an incubator two miles away, waiting to be put back. So the first big hurdle has been passed… now if we can just get those soon-to-be-babies to grow where they’re supposed to grow, we’ll be home free.
