Well, here it is. My traditional belly shot. :-)So, we made it. We actually had something to transfer today! The embryologist thawed three blastocysts. All three made it through the thaw just fine. (I am so proud!)
Here we have our grade A hatching blast. We're calling her Lucy.
Here are the other two blasts. We transferred the grade B expanding blast as well--aka Ethel. (marked #2) They did AH on her just to make things a little easier for her to implant. Ahem. The third blast will be refrozen if it makes it through the night and begins to expand.
The kicker is that the embryologist gave us a 40-50% chance of pregnancy based on our history and the quality of the blasts we transferred.
40% to 50%, people!
And there are still two more snowbabies for the future!
I don't know how I got so lucky. :-)
Progesterone and estrogen check is on 11/13.
Beta is on the 16th. It will technically be 16dpo. 16 seems to be the number of the hour.
The countdown is on...do you think I can make it 10 days to the beta without testing?
Me neither. I figure that Monday is as good of a day to start peeing on sticks as any other!
Oh! Congratulations! I am sending GOOODDDD vibes that all will go well this time!!
