Infertility

Fert report in !

Of the 12 eggs they retrieved, 6 were mature & 5 fertilized. I'm tentitively scheduled for a 3dt on Saturday @ 1pm. They will call me early Sat,though, to verify if I should come in or if they want to push me to a 5dt.

Although 5 is a really good # & it does only take 1, I'm a bit bummed that out of all the eggs they got, less than half fertilized.
