I am 35 years old, living with stage IV Endometriosis, possibly adenomyosis and struggled with infertility for almost 4 years. I also struggled with PPD and now struggle with PMDD. I am a mother to a son that was born at 18 weeks and too precious for this earth; and now a mother to a son born in August 2011. By journaling here, I hope to benefit both for myself and for others that are dealing with this disease and fertility struggles. Thanks for visiting!

Crackberry fertilization report

7 eggs retrieved

3 eggs too immature :(

4 ICSI (injected with sperm since there were so few)

3 fertilized and looking good!

What are the odds all 3 will make it? Will they freeze just 1? Keep your fingers crossed-we are going in Thursday for the transfer (day 4?!?). We'll be there at 10 am for an 1130 transfer. The plan is to transfer 2 due to my aggressive endo. I hope there will be 2 good strong ones! I'll have all weekend to rest up and nuture my embies!

Getting a little nervous now! I wish we would have some to freeze. Hopefully this will all work out and we won't have to think about what might have been!
