Nine!

Yesterday I was elated to find out that NINE of my eleven eggs successfully fertilized.

NINE!!!

That's 20% better than the results from the last cycle {11 & 9 vs. 13 & 8}

So far we're up one embryo from last time.

I'll get an update tomorrow morning with how they're growing and if any have stopped growing.  I think usually by day 3 all are still growing great, it's between days 3 & 5 that the numbers will drop off a bit... hopefully only a bit.  Like, an itty bitty bit.

We do still have 6 embryos that are leftover from last time.  Those embryos are currently frozen and will be thawed out tomorrow and everything will be allowed to grow for 2 more days so that I have all day 5 embryos.  Whatever has survived at that point will be biopsied and then immediately frozen.  So that's a potential of up to 15 embryos IF everything survives.  Which I don't expect.  So I'm hoping that between 8-10 will be biopsied and that of those, there will be at least 3-4 usable embryos.

Sigh.

So much to think about.
