one day past retrieval

we've got 14 eggs that have fertilized. by tomorrow afternoon we should know how many of those 14 are developing properly and they'll determine whether we're doing a saturday (day 3) transfer or a monday (day 5) transfer. im just over the moon that it seems like the baby i birth will be half related to Sofia. then if we get really lucky, with extra embryos, and in life to be financially able to think about a third baby, then my wife, could potentially carry my biological baby. how incredible would that be? that is much too far in the future to even think about right now.

right now im just thankful that we have some little baby embies starting to grow. this is like a dream come true for me/us. started all of my oral meds and i get to start my progesterone injections tonight. can you tell how excited i am for more intramuscular injections? they're not that bad, but subcutaneous ones are so much simpler.

onto the....

if you are not yet a parent/pregnant. what are you most and least looking forward to after your first beta?
im most looking forward to figuring out a potential due date(because i refuse to think about the due date until i know that i am certainly pregnant... even though i dont doubt that doctors may want to induce me early ...which i hope doesnt happen) but it all depends on how im doing with the betes. im least looking forward to becoming a complete lunatic about managing my diabetes in an even more controlled way than i did to prep for pregnant.

  1. Very exciting! And even better that Sophia will get a half sibling :) It's amazing to think that you have so many little embryos growing right now, all at the same time. I'm sure you'll get some beautiful blasts for both the transfer and the freezer :)
