It's PUPO Tuesday around here! :)

We had our ET today at 2:30 PST - I'm 4 hours PUPO! We used both donor egg and donor sperm, both with proven pregnancies, and the embryologist said "well, these two were very compatible!". We transferred 1 epic semi-hatched blast, and got two very good lookin' frosties!! Two additional are having one more day in the lab and may get frozen too! The embryologist said "in the absolute best-case scenario, we see about a 68-70% success rate, and I'd say you guys are in that high range of possibility based on this blast!"

One more thing...the picture of our embaby has an almost "man in the moon" quality about it, and it looks like Charlie Brown's face. It's the first thing my partner said "honey, it's Charlie Brown!" and when she told the doc, the doc said "that was my first thought but I didn't want to say anything and risk offending you." It took 3 tries to get "Charlie" to leave the catheter because the he was so sticky! So, here's hoping he got in there and settled right in.I had to pee so bad the whole time that it wasn't until afterwards that I realized "oh.my.god.there.is.a.baby.in.me"!!!

 Lots of good wishes to all the bunnies!! FX our babies are here to stay!

That's great!! Sending lots of sticky vibes your way!
TTC since June 2011

Me (32): all clear
Appt with Urologist 5/21/12: exam, ultrasound, bloodwork all normal.
Testicular Biopsy with TESE on 6/8/12. good sperm found! (left side only) froze sperm, failed thaw test :(
Orientation for IVF/ICSI on 6/13/12. Waiting for the green light following biopsy results...results show adequate sperm production both sides.
2nd SA 6/18/12: sample is "adequate for ICSI"
Plan: IVF/ICSI July 2012!
