Well, let me catch you up to speed...I tracked Gene's flight...I gave myself trigger shot as soon as I saw his plane was in the air...isn't the internet the bomb??? He got here Thursday night...we had the egg retrieval and his contribution around 5:00pm and then we waited.....I must give Dr. Shivani credit...there was no comparison with this retrieval vs the mumbai one...I have not taken a single pain pill...I have felt very good....we have went sight seeing....met friends for dinner....Anyway, as you know I had 4-5 follicles prior retrieval...they retrieved 4 eggs..one was immature...3 fertilized...two grade 1 and one grade 2...we are using two surrogates...the embryo transfer was today...now we are in the two week wait..oh, did I mention that we met our surrogates and I was a giant compared to them?? They do not speak english so we had an interpreter...not much was said but they looked terrified!! I wanted to hug them but I was scared they would break!!! lol...they are young..early twenties....cute girls...I hope we didn't make them too nervous!!keep us in your thoughts and prayers....and pray for a BFP!!! (big fat positive)
When we met out surrogate in Mumbai she looked terrified as well. Her husband not so much. But very little was communicated verbally...we relied almost 100% on body language. And good to hear your retrieval went so well! My niece donated for us and her retrieval was NOT a good experience AT ALL. She was very sick after and we felt terrible.
ReplyDeleteWishing you lots and lots of luck with your two surrogates! Will be checking for updates in a couple weeks.
Praying you get a BFP!
ReplyDeleteYou're in my thoughts and prayers! I'm so relieved to hear that the timing worked out for the flight and procedure to line up. Fingers crossed for a BFP soon from both surrogates!
ReplyDeleteWishing you all the best...and a BFP!
ReplyDeletePraying hard that you guys get a BFP or two! So glad everything came together!
