Who wants to help keep me positive?!!!

in Success after IF

I am determined to stay optimistic in what is THE LONGEST WEEK EVERRR!

Had my ER Saturday.  11 retrieved, 6 mature, 3 fertilized and Monday a miracle fertilized when they had checked again.  

So we have 4 embryos growing!  My clinic only does 6 day transfers (which I have mixed feelings about).  So I am waiting for a call Thursday to tell me "whether or not there is anything to transfer!"  

I was depressed by the numbers at first but after coming to my senses I am full of hope.  Even though I'm hopeful and we have many prayers, I am sooooooo anxious and I cannot WAIT for THursday to come.  I'm even dreaming about it.  

So ... share some success stories, pep talk, or whatever you can to pass the time for me!  

We only had 2 and did a 3dt last time so I know it only takes one, as that's how we got DS.

    Yay for 4 little embies!  I know the wait is killing you, but it'll be here in no time.  Sending up lots of prayers that these little ones work out!

    Good luck!  Your numbers sound similar to mine (I never had more than 12 eggs retrieved)...and it only took one embryo for me to have my 2nd daughter, L!  Good luck -- thinking lots of good thoughts for you this week.

    You have four embies growing strong!!! That's super! (I haven't been around a ton and didn't even realize you had your ER!) I have a feeling that you will have a couple of rock stars to transfer on Friday :) Good luck!

    With this pg we had only 4 eggs retrieved, 3 fertilized and 2 transferred on day 3. Both stuck and I am pg with twins. This cycle was soo much worse than my first so I felt completely hopeless. Just goes to show you that it is quality not quantity. 

    Good luck!

    You ladies are all the best!  Your support means the world to me and I've re-read a few times already!  I'm dreaming about it, (good and bad) and so anxious!
