We have thirteen embryos! Of the nineteen eggs that were collected yesterday, sixteen were able to go to ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection, where the sperm is injected directly into the egg). Thirteen of those fertilized and now we have thirteen little embryos cooking in a dish!
I started on the Prometrium vaginal suppositories this morning, and I will take them three times a day until further notice. These will help prepare the uterine lining for implantation.
The IVF office will call us at 7am on Sunday. We are tentatively scheduled for an 8:30am appointment for the embryo transfer. If there are still several embryos left at that stage, they may want to wait until Tuesday for the insertion, to allow the embryos to grow to the blastocyst stage.
