Bad News:(
Nothing fertilized. They are doing a rescue ICSI, but he said to prepare myself for the reality that this is over. I am sad, of course, but I had a gut feeling that this would be the outcome. He said it is likely an egg quality issue.
I'll update tomorrow, but more than likely we are done trying and I can finally move on with my life as a family of three.
Thank you all for your support. I asked for closure, and I got it.

Re: Bad News:(
I'm so sorry this is the outcome. At least you can move on knowing you did everything possible. I just hope I can be in as good a place as you if it comes to that for us.
My heart aches for you...I was really hoping this was it for you. Still sending lots of thoughts and prayers your way!
TTC #2 since 6/2010
10/2012 DH diagnosed with Epilepsy
A few failed IUIs summer 2012 and 2013.
DH taking clomid and waiting to see if he needs another vericocele repair.
Hoping for a 2015 baby or babies.
Wishing, hoping, waiting.
Oh girl, I am so, so, so sorry that nothing fertilized. Such a huge letdown. Closure is such a blessing but bittersweet for sure. Let yourself feel everything and get it all out. This just isn't fair.
I am sending you a lot of hugs and support.

What a mean thing for the universe to do. That just sounds...like an unreasonable and unbelievably harsh experience to put any woman through--even by the usually crappy IF standards. You have literally given this problem everything you possibly could and I suppose it is one way to get complete closure.
L, you gave this every shot you could--and more. If everyone had as much positivity, will power and drive that you have shown over the course of your IF journey, the world would be such a good place. You should be proud of the woman that you are--the woman we have seen here who has handled adversity and pain with grace and kindness toward others.
Update us when you can today.
