Fertilization Report

OMG... you girls are awesome... I received the most comments ever in the shortest time ever... you touch my heart... I am humbled! Thank you for all the good wishes! The nurse called back and 13 out of the 27 fertilized. I asked as to why only 27 were retrieved from the 50-60 follicles that were visible during the prior u/s... the nurse mentioned that not all of the follicles have eggs, so in spite of them having cleared out all the follicles, we got the number that we did. I am just glad things have gone well so far and am praying that our embie babies keep growing! I won't hear back from them until Sunday. So we wont know if it is a Sunday or Tuesday transfer till Sunday! I am doing much better today... it is painful only when I have to pee... and pee I have to often (with the water being consumed)... feel a little weak, but otherwise okay! I will definitely be posting my ER story soon!
