Retrieval day today!

Gigi β€’ IVF baby due June 2023

Hoping for lots of eggs πŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌπŸ₯šπŸ₯šπŸ₯šπŸ₯šπŸ₯šπŸ₯š

UPDATE! 15 eggs! 😁😁😁

UPDATE #2: out of 15, only 6 fertilized so I’m trying to stay positive that they make it to blast and PGD! 🀞🏼🀞🏼🀞🏼

UPDATE #3: Just got the update: all 6 embryos are still going strong. 4 are graded as a 1 (the best), 1 is graded as a 2 (ok, might get better or might get worse) and 1 is graded as a 3 (not so good). Hoping they keep multiplying!

UPDATE #4: 5 embryos have made it to day 3 and are grade 1! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

UPDATE #5: Just got the πŸ₯š update! 4 embryos have been biopsied successfully and will be frozen, one is still waiting to develop into a blastocyst before biopsy and one still hasn’t developed so it will most likely be discarded. Looks like we will have 4, maybe 5 frozen! We’ll get the results from the genetic testing in 2 weeks.

UPDATE #6: the 5th embryo didn’t develop so we officially have 4 blasts frozen and we will hopefully get the results of the PGD next week!

UPDATE #7: one embryo is normalβ€” hopefully transferring late January πŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌ
