Sigh...Thank You for Your Prayers!


Hi Everyone...Chris and I received more great news today. All seven embies made it through the night and are dividing and growing right on schedule. The nurse has scheduled us for an 11:30 transfer on Friday morning. Yeah! That means our little embies will be at a blastocyst stage by then. That is great news. They will have many divisions by then. The transfer of a blastocyst has a much better success rate. Many embies don't make it that far...so please keep praying. The embryologist feels confident that we will still have enough by day 5 to transfer. Of course, if there are any changes, we will receive a call and come up with a plan B. That would mean we would transfer sooner and get them in my body ASAP. Obviously embryos do better in the womb, but by waiting until day 5...the strongest can be transferred.


The picture above is what they should have looked like on Tuesday. I am assuming this is how they looked, since our report was good. Overnight they will divide again and I will post a new picture. (Such a proud mama.)


Thank you all so much for your support and prayers! This has been a crazy ride! We have learned so much. Don't tell my boss, but I am starting to get really distracted at work. I have stacks of papers on my desk that need to be graded. I am hoping tomorrow that when I go in, they will all be graded :) Probably not.


Take care! We are so excited! Grow embies! Grow!
