So I suppose it would have been unrealistic to think that every entry I would post on this blog would be a nice, uplifting, or funny piece. Today's is not necessarily unhappy, just not really what we were expecting or hoping for.
We got our fertilization report yesterday. They were able to get 10 eggs, 9 of them matured, and 4 of them fertilized. This was shocking to us because everyone told us we would produce eggs like there was no tomorrow (and I had 23 follicles last Sunday), but it seems we just did average. And obviously 4 fertilized eggs is better than none, so I am happy about that, but it kind of lets down our dreams of freezing several to use later.
I was a hysterical mess yesterday, but have regained enough composure to write this without crying so I guess that's an improvement. I'm trying to think positively about the 4 embryos we have. They still have to grow to a transferable state so our prayers are running wild right now. All crossable body parts are crossed.
We meet with the doctor tomorrow morning to go over the grades of our embryos and decide how many to transfer back. The transfer is scheduled for 9:40 tomorrow morning. We're hoping to hear we have 4 rockstar embabies, but obviously we'll take whatever we can get now.
Thank you for all the prayers, love, and support. We really do appreciate it, and someday so will Baby Keebs!
