Well done HM ... You must be delighted ! A great crop of eggs, and good fertilisation rate ... Now, make sure you get plenty of rest before ET on Monday ... the more healed your body is before then, the better.

HM and Pixiesmom

Congratulations to both of you - great numbers and remember all you really need is one very good one, so it looks like you're going to be spoilt for choice.

Let me know your test dates and I'll add you to the list.

PMA, hugs and Baby Dust

pixiesmom,

So you will do ET on 6/17? How many fortilized?

A patient who did ET an hour before me said that she had 11 eggs collected, 7 of them fortilized next day, and by the time of transfer, 2 were invalid, so she had 5 good ones. I had 2 invalid eggs out of 17 by the morning of ET, so after 3 been transfered, I still have 12 left.

I think your # is in normal range. You should do fine.

I will go back for blood test in 2 weeks, on 6/27. I'm a little bit worried about a 2-hour train ride to home after the transfer; the train bumped all the way; hope this will not ruin everything.

Little P,

Do you keep tracking everyone's test date? Count me in. My test date is 6/27.
