Ok, this isn't the good news. But it's the next best thing!
So as a recap, at my last vanishing act, I had done a second partial ivf to try and have more embryos to send out for PGD testing due to a chromosomal abnormality my husband has. No embryos survived that cycle, and we couldn't afford to do another one, so we decided to just send out the three embryos that were created the first cycle and hope for the best. With a 20% chance of a healthy embryo, it wasn't promising.
Well, I got the call back from the genetics lab, and out of our 3 embryos 2 are healthy. 2! I started jumping up and down, I got so excited. I have 2 embryos!
So as soon as my cycle starts again I go on the bc pills, and then I start meds for the frozen transfer. Tentatively scheduled the week of 9/11. You guys! This is really like the first chance ever I will have of actually getting pregnant! And there is a second one!
