Egg Retrieval Today *Bad Update*

Hi ladies, just wanted to update you all. The retrieval went great. I was scheduled for 7:00am so we had to get
there at 6:00am. My doc retrieved 16 eggs, which shocked us since there
didn't look like there was that many follicles (I guess they were
hiding??). We got 5 more than last time, so increasing the med dosage
worked after all. which I am ecstatic about! He only took eggs from
follicles that looked mature, so hopefully most will be mature.
Pain is very minimal. I am definitely high risk for OHSS so I have to take it easy for the next few days.
We will hear back on fertilization tomorrow so hopefully we get at least 12 (9 mature and 9 fertilized last time) that are able to be fertilized. FX that there is a healthy one in the batch this time!! Transfer is scheduled for Thursday.
Update:
The embryologist just called with bad news. They injected 14 of the 16 eggs with sperm and as of this morning only 7 are still growing. They have no idea why. I don't even know what to say. We're devestated. We lost half already.
Last time every single one was fertilized and kept growing for a few days. My eggs can only be affected in two ways (I think) with my condition and both of those types fertilized last time. I don't see how my eggs could have been "extra bad" this time, nor how DHs sperm be bad when it has always been great.If it was technical error on their part, I know they will never tell us.
