IVF #2, Day 14

Just got a call from the embryologist. Only three of the eggs were mature yesterday, and two of them have fertilized to become embryos. However, three of the eggs matured in the lab since yesterday and will undergo ICSI today. He said that they have a lower chance of developing, but he will call me tomorrow with those results.

Not sure what to think about this.

Here's some more information about immature eggs.

    I am breathing this in and out like a prayer Joannah--
    you may have more too!

    (please don't get me wrong, I understand the complexity here. I know how I would feel: disappointed. But i also know the importance-- YOU HAVE 2! Which is so worth celebrating! 2>0 )

    with love,
    and big fat hope

  3. There's not much more to think about it other than you have TWO embryos growing out in the lab with the possibility that others may join the party.

    Take it one thing at a time. You have two growing out!

    What was your lining appearance/thickness?
