On day 3, after the call from our embryologist that we still had 9 embryos, we went out to dinner to celebrating deciding over "drinks" that we would be donating our unused embryos to those "poor" infertile couples! Ha....little did I know the other shoe would drop. Day 4, 8AM, nurse calls and says, have you heard the news...No.....the embryologist will call you, but thinks you'll have SOMETHING left for transfer. WTF is right!!!<br /><br />Over night our embryos began defragmenting or all-together topped dividing completely! On day 5, the day of transfer, we did end up with 2 healhty embryos. Fortunately 1 stuck and today we have a healthy almost-5-year old. Hang in there, girl! It is one crazy, bumpy ride w/o the JINXING! Go for option #3...LOL!<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />ValerieValeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17633704862629969672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4881629173943208551.post-35080905103109968882009-05-12T18:18:00.000-05:002009-05-12T18:18:00.000-05:00I'm so sorry!

He laughs and says I am too superstitious but let me do something wrong when his hockey game is going and he goes crazy. I tell him its the same thing. I think it is finally getting through to him. I hope you do not need a next time to see he got the message. I think if you hop on one leg while singing a lullaby the superstition gods will forgive you.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03661220372372737455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4881629173943208551.post-54809568911585500052009-05-12T17:04:00.000-05:002009-05-12T17:04:00.000-05:00ohhhh.
