TWO :)

I know its been a awhile since my last post but I think you guys are pretty caught up from either phone calls or text messages. Here is a little recap to remind you all what has happened this last month.

January 8th was the egg retrieval. The doctors took out 26 eggs, 24 good, 17 fertilized. They were very positive and impressed with the number.

January 10th was the transfer of the embryo. Out of the 17 eggs fertilized, all made it to day 3. They also all developed to 8 cell which is very good. The doctors decided to put two back and freeze the remaining... Yay! possible twins :) On the day of the implant, the doctor again sounded very positive and told us they hoped we'd be able to make a full family with all the embryos. After that we headed back to the room where we got to see the embryos that they were transferring...I started to get a little emotional just thinking that after over a year this was all happening. Such an amazing day.

Then came the hard part........TWO WEEK WAIT! AHHHHH!!!!..... I went crazy (I need to figure out some way to work on this next time around).

January 22nd was the big test day. I was surprised I made it without running to the store and going to buy my own test. As you all know by now, it didn't work :( I was hoping twins. I even started to plan out they're little room. I took a measuring tape and planned where they're little cribs would go. I know... getting a little ahead of myself but its just the designer in me. I know it will happen soon. Oh, and the Niners lost that day! All in all, a very disappointing day.

If I can say anything about this process it's that I'm learning a lot about myself.  Yes... it's scary with so many unknowns and I still have moments where I will just start crying but my faith is definitely getting me through it and also my amazing family and friends.

Tomorrow Ross and I have our next appointment to ask any questions we have and to go over our next steps to getting our little miracle baby. Promise to keep you all posted.
