Embie on board
"Do you wanna hear the good news or the bad news?" Considering I knew what was coming after that opening line from our FS, I imagine you've got a pretty good idea too. The good news is we had one beautiful grade 1 embryo for transfer :) YAY!! The bad news is, that's all we had. No spares, no back up, no frosties. Apparently 4 of the 7 eggs fertilised but 2 grew abnormally and the third was a grade 4 that was growing too slowly and wasn't recommended for transfer or freezing. So ... We had our one super duper embryo transferred this afternoon and now we begin our TWW :) I was sad that the other little guys didn't make it but we feel really blessed that we did get 1 in the end and that it's a good one :). Apparently it had just morphed to 5 cells right before the transfer, and given they collected at 8am on Wed and transferred at 12.30pm on Friday I reckon that's pretty good :). So now we'll just have wait and hope and pray that this little one sticks. Here is a pic our little embie that's now floating around somewhere inside me. Fingers crossed it finds somewhere nice and warm and digs in deep for the long haul.

Thanks V. We need all the baby dust we can get :). The nurse said the 29th for the blood test, but my schedule says 27th and if I'm PG then a repeat on the 29th. I guess I'll just call them closer to the date to confirm when exactly it's suppose to be.
