Post fertilization thoughts

Ive had a day now to process the not so great news from yesterday. I am still disappointed and there was a moment of tears yesterday. To only have 4 to work with after all those meds and all this pain...um....I have to wonder if it was even worth it. BUT I need to have some faith in my 4 that hopefully they are growing and we will have at least 2 to transfer tomorrow. I haven't had an update from embryology today and I am not sure if I will. I was too shocked to ask yesterday. So keeping my fingers crossed and worrying just a bit. As I mentioned I am hoping for 2 to transfer. At this point with so few embryos I think 2 is the way to go. Chances are there will be none to freeze so this is it. Perhaps this is a blessing in disguise, I never really wanted to be faced with several frozen embryos that may have never gotten used. If we get pregnant and deliver a healthy term baby there wasn't a plan for additional children. I had thought maybe a couple frosties for just in case would be good but still wouldn't have really known what to do with them if the fresh cycled had worked. Sigh. I am ready to get the transfer done...and then we will leave everything in God's hands.

Praying things work out for you! The first two times I ended up with two embryos to transfer and nothing to freeze, each time I got pregnant! Last round I actually ended up with frosties, but after the complications with this pregnancy, we've decided that we're most definitely done making babies. What I'm trying to say is, don't lose hope! With only two each time, we did get pregnant.. my body just failed our second baby! I haven't been blogging much lately, but will keep checking and hoping for you! :)

I have my fingers crossed you you. I have no idea about IVF, but I know the fear and frustration of trying all you can to have a take home baby.

Thinking of you.
