IVF and Anniversary

Today was a good day. From the 19 embryos developing a couple days ago, we ended up with 14 good ones. That means, 3 went into Sherri today and 11 are frozen for later use. The implantation went much better today - Sherri was not as tense (physically) and everything went smoother throughout. We find out if any of the embryos took when we go in for a pregnancy test on June 23rd. Right now is the bed rest stage. Sherri is on strict bed rest for 5 days. After that she must take it VERY easy for another week, at which point we will know if she is pregnant.
Here I am trying to be GQ in a see-thru paper suit Sherri and me right before the procedure
Here are the 3 embryos that went into Sherri today. They are all 8-cell and rated as 1.2, with 1 being best and 4 being worst. That is a very good rating, and is even better than the 1.3 we had last time.Sherri was in the mood for a cheeseburger, so I brought back In N Out for our anniversary dinner. Anniversary dinner in bed isn't quite the same with doctor prescribed bed rest.

Yay! Congratulations on having so many embryos. Easier said than done but ENJOY the bedrest. Someday you'll look back longingly and wish for even 1 day of bedrest! I'm liking Amy's thinking... 2 girls, 1 boy. A great combo!
