Well, our journey begins with our trip in May to CA to do our IVF cycle with ICSI assistance. Our fertility doctor is Dr. Richard Marrs. He is located in CA and we loved him! He is a great man and fabulous doctor; maybe a little too good :) He is nationally recognized as one of the best and most successful fertility doctors in the country. We found him through Dr. David Richards in AF, Utah who is his partner and also a very incredible man.
Anyway, we were in CA for about 10 days doing labs and the egg retrieval. The egg retrieval was on a Thursday and then the eggs got to sit in a little petri dish and cell divide for about 3 days until they were divided enough to be ready for the transfer. So on May 24th, we did our embryo transfer and Dr. Marrs (and the lab doctor as well who had been babysitting our embryos for us) felt that transferring 3 of the embryos would give us the best chance for one to work. The percentages were 65% for one to work, 25% for two to work and a 2% chance for all three. Well, we know what odds we have had in the past so we felt really good about doing all three as well.
They showed us our little embryos before they transferred them in and here is what they looked like: Pretty amazing picture hu?
