I had 2 perfect 3 day embryos transferred, a 6 cell and a 7 cell. I am very happy that I have my Mini Macs where they belong. My hopes are definitely lifted and I know all of your thoughts and prayers helped, so thank you a million times over.
My RE was honest and told me that my embryos were sub-optimal for my age (33) and my response, but that the 2 being transferred are perfect. She wasn't supposed to do my transfer, but she was there for it and hugged me and made the whole process wonderful. I have to admit that the whole staff for both retrievals and transfers are just phenomenal and I have no doubt that every last one of them are doing/did all they could for me.
There are 4 more that they are watching to freeze....3 are slow growers and 1 is a 7 cell with 30% fragmentation.
I am in a much better place than I was yesterday, as I thought I was going to have nothing to work with. I have a renewed confidence and am doing my best to nurture my little nuggets so they decide to stick around for the next 9 months.
Thank you all for cheering me on. I only hope I can lift your spirits as much as you do mine xoxoxo
BTW: I am copying and pasting this post as my blog entry...I am too drained to type a long entry. Ssshhhh...don't tell!
