Last injection was saturday night and then off I went for egg collection yesterday morning all hopefull that some of the smaller three had caught up and may produce an egg so that I had more than four.
Nope, that didnt happen. In fact, I didnt even get four. Three was the magic number at the end of the day. Three! All that work, all 5 weeks of injections for three! I was dissapointed but kept reminding myself that I only need one. I just had to pray that they all fertilised and were all ok.
Then the call this morning. Though all three had fertilised, two did so abnormally with two sperm each - apparently an indication of poor egg quality and the outer layer breaking down allowing more that one sperm in. So, three are now one and I go in tomorrow to have the little one put back as there is no point waiting to find our which is the strongest - there is not really much to choose from!
What immediately came to mind when the embryologist called this morning and told me we were down to one was that this was obviously meant to be the one. At least this way its not down to the lab to decide which one of those clumps of cells actually gets to be my child. Nature has taken care of that for me. I just have to hope that they dont call me in the morning to say that my little embryo stopped developing. Please stay strong little embie xx
