Still Alive!

The embryologist just called and all 14 of our embryos are still alive! I'm really in shock. We've been praying every night that God takes care of our little 8 celled creatures. She reported that three are starting to slow down in their growth but that still leaves us with 11 normally developing embryos. We are just so excited. Our transfer will be planned for Tuesday. I am just continuing to pray that they all continue to do well and that we have two blastocysts to transfer on Tuesday.

I've been feeling ok so far. Yesterday we met friends out for lunch and I was surprised how exhausting it was. I don't think I gave the egg retrieval enough credit : / We ran a few errands and then headed home so that I could get back in bed. We enjoyed a lazy day followed by a Wolfpack win! So glad we invested in a S-video cord to watch the ESPN360 games on the internet. Can't wait until we head up to Raleigh in two weeks to watch the game live!

Overall, I've just been tired and sore. I'm ready to start healing so that I can begin walking and exercising. Jay has been a great help, running to get me things to eat, taking care of the dogs and laundry, and overall being very supportive. I'm headed in to school today to create my lesson plans for the next week. I'm taking Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday off... LOTS of planning to do!

Hope you're having a fabulous labor day weekend!
