Nine

No, I am not talking about a somewhat bizarre musical about an womanizing Italian film director.

I am talking about the number of my eggs that fertilized. That's right. You heard me.

Nine.

Out of twelve retrieved, 10 were mature, and nine fertilized. Can you tell that I am starting to finally feel excited? I am feeling much less pain today as well, although I look 5 months pregnant, and I can't walk very fast. But that's ok, because when you add my last two cycles together, it took us two tries to get the same number of fertilized eggs as we just got this time! I will take it!

All right, busy at work. Need to get back to it, but also needed to take a minute to be super excited!

PIO starts tonight. Wish me luck!

  5. 9 is a great number. It's sad how the numbers decline after retrieval, but it sounds like you have a great amount. Sorry you are still uncomfortable but hoping you feel better soon. I'm quickly approaching waddle-status.
