Nontuplets!!!

Amazing news today! As you know, yesterday 10 eggs were retrieved from my ovaries. Typically, half of the eggs fertilize putting us in the 4-5 range. Today my doctor called to say that 9 eggs fertilized! It's truly amazing and we feel very blessed. 

The next step is transfer. Because we have quite a few fertilized eggs, there's a chance my doctor will wait until Sunday to transfer. The longer you wait, the better chance for implantation but there is also a chance of losing embryos along the way, which is why you have to have a lot in order to wait. I have a tentative appointment on Friday at 10:30 for transfer and the doc will call by 8:30 am to let me know whether I come in or wait till Sunday! 

The prayers are working, keep them coming!!

    I am so pissed that you didn't give me cred for coming up with nontuplets.
