First and ten
For those of you who understood the 4th and long football analogy from my last post, here's another: we got the first down.
Two of our four embryos were of "excellent" quality. The RE said they looked even better than the embryos from our last cycle, which was (if only for a short time) a success. Sadly, the other two embryos are not progressing nearly as well and it's unlikely they'll make it to blastocyst stage to be frozen. We're disappointed about that, but mostly we're giddy. Two excellent embryos! Better even than last time! Considering we weren't sure we'd even have anything to transfer, that's exceedingly good news.
So this morning (day 3) we transferred one 8-cell and one 7-cell embryo. The picture is a bit wacky, but aren't they just lovely?
Beta is on October 1.

Sube--I am so excited that you had 2 excellent embryos! Way to go!! They look perfect. I hope October 1st comes by quickly. Thinking of you!
They're beautiful.
Mine is the 2nd. May I join you in the insanity of the wait?
The more the merrier, Beagle!

I am keeping my fingers (and toes) crossed for you Sube :-)
Most lovely embryos ever!
Hey, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. In the land of infertility they are the most stunning things we have see!
YEAY! That truly gives me hope. If your fragile embies can produce 2 good ones, maybe there's hope for my abnormal ones.
I am sending sticky thoughts! My transfer is Thursday so we'll see what we get~
Sube, they look good, and you sound good, which is great. It's all crossed for you.
Everything is crossed!
Sube, good luck, they look lovely. I am hoping this is your time. Hang in there for the 2ww, thinking of you.
Good luck!!!
"better than last time", I hope you get to say that for a long, long time, if you catch my drift. Good luck!
They do look lovely. Good luck!
Good luck! Hope October holds wonderful things for you!

Hurrah! You couldn't ask for better than that!!!!
Thrilled for you.
Now, the 2ww is all that's left. :-) I'll be checking in on you, I hope the time will fly by.
Sube!! Congratulations on the transfer. I have everything crossed for you that it all goes smoothly. Hang in there for the 2ww--hope it goes by fast. Take care.
Go embies Go!!!! (I can cheer like mad at any football game)
Bee-yoo-tiful! Hope you get the touchdown this time, Sube.

Just got back from vacation and wanted to say that I'm wishing you a short and sweet 2ww!

Wow, look at all those cells! They are quite the beauties!
I'm keeping everything crossed for you in the hopes that this will be the one.
How are you doing? Have you been on 'bedrest', too?
Maybe someday we'll be able to get your fragile baby and my abnormal baby together (0:
Looks good. Fingers crossed for you on the first.
Somehow in the madness of cycling I have read this post and never commented. The embryo's look and sound great Sube, I am keeping my fingers crossed for great news on October 1st.
