EC and now the dreaded wait

Morning ladies

Just thought I would share an update. I had my egg collection yesterday- 14 eggs in total (which is 4 more than I had last time)

I don't know how many are mature.

Doing ICSI this time as last round had one egg fertilise out of 10. Also managed to source a new sperm donor which was a bit of a challenge through COVID

So really hoping that with a new donor and new process I'll have better fertilisation rates- otherwise I guess I'll know the problem is my eggs after all.

I've booked the day off work today, and am waiting the dreaded phonecall from the embryologist to see what's happened overnight.....
