Robert and I arrived at HFI to meet with Dr. Gill this morning for the embryo transfer. He was pleased to tell us that he was able to fertilize all 20 eggs! We all agreed that inserting two would be a safe bet. I know my body could handle two if necessary, but 3+?! I don't think so...
This was by far the easiest of all of the procedures so far! I was given a muscle relaxer but thankfully, no IV. Rob got to go into the O.R. with me (his outfit was very amusing!) and I was awake the whole time watching on the ultrasound monitor as Dr. Gill transferred the embryos into the upper part of my uterus. We even got our ultrasound picture of the two embryos. I will now be on strict bed rest for the next 4 days which is when I'll return to HFI for blood work. It's a good thing mom is off for the summer too, as she volunteered to come over and keep me company with movies and gossip magazines! Robert will return to work tomorrow, a little sore, but willing to give it a go. I think he is just bored of laying around all day and to be honest, I don't blame him!
