We Have Embryos! July 25, 2005
Three of our four embryos made it, and to say that I am relieved would be an understatement. The fourth was a pathetic one cell, so obviously we didn’t transfer it. Here’s what we did transfer (grade 4 being highest):
9 cell compacting grade 4
9 cell grade 4-
8 cell compacting grade 4-
I was thrilled to have such good embryos after only starting out with four. The transfer itself went pretty well. I had to wait forever and my stomach was burning I was so hungry, but I finally got called back. I got some yummy drugs from my friend the anesthesiologist and all was well with the world.
They had some trouble getting the hard stylet thingy up through my biatch cervix, but once it was in place the catheter containing the embryos went in just fine. There was no blood on the catheter, and I haven’t had any bleeding yet, so that’s a pretty successful transfer for me.
Beta is on the 5th.

Crossing my fingers for you…
Sounds like all went great! Thinking of you and crossing my fingers. ;)
You’d think after all the traffic, your cervix would have had tea and cookies ready this time, no? Ugh. Congratulations on a good transfer, though, and the best of luck with hanging in there for the 2WW, especially given the in-law factor.
Get those feet up, girlie!!! Shall I air-freight the sticky tape?
Hoping and praying this is it for you. Go little embryos!
WOW!! What high achievers you have! Sounds like they should be on the dean’s list.
I’m wishing you and your three embies well.
Yes! So happy things went well. Will do my best to amuse you through the hellwait.
Yay, Amanda and her embryos!
So glad things went smoothly for you. I’ll be thinking about you and your three little embies. Stick, Stick, Stick!
Great news, Amanda. Thinking of you!
