Transfer Day: The Ever Changing Follicle Count

About a week ago, Dr. Italian said that he saw 6 or 7 follicles.

Two days ago at my U/S: 4.

This morning on the table before my IV sedation cocktail: 5

When I woke up: 6

Of the 6 that he found while I was out, 5 were large enough to have follicles. Of the 5, he got 4 eggs.

So an 80% retrieval rate if you disregard the worthless follicle.

No report just yet on how many are mature but I'll get a fertilization report in the morning.

What a white knuckle ride this was. Whew. Poured myself a nice Liberty School cab and I'm going to bed as soon as the first PIO shot has been delivered to my bumm.

Sounds like there's a little magician in your belly - now you see them, now you don't! Well, hurray for your fantastic four! Enjoy your well-deserved glass of cab and I am sending happy fertilization thoughts! Go 4 Go!
Love,
Maddy

Hope your little quartet is ready for the long haul! I can't believe that crazy follie count - probably good I never knew (they only told me how many fertilized on day 1). Fingers crossed for you!

80% is great! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for your 4.
