Embryologist just called...

... God! Don’t they take ages to go to the point??? All we want to know is how many embryos we have growing in a petri dish ...

Anyways, after the slowest intro phone call of my life, she tells me that our of the 18 eggs collected, 16 matured nicely where fertilised. Out of the 16 fertilised, 13 are growing nicely!

In fact, she says it’s unlikely we will have ET on Saturday because looks like 13 all look very good. Some of them are already at 4 cell stage !

Happy does not even describe what am feeling right now! 🤗

Come on embies! Grow strong and healthy!!!!

More strict with his meds. More protein. More exercise.

Brilliant news! You only need one.... but sounds like you'll have some to freeze! Fingers crossed they all keep growing.

We had 9 eggs, 7 of which fertilised and 6 made it to day 3. By day 5 we had a frontrunner and 3 others that were good enough to freeze.
