Fertilization

So yesterday I was very disappointed when I found out that only 7 of our 15 retrieved had fertilized. It was such a blow to get such a great number and then end up with less than we did last time. It took me all night and some hearty consoling/encouragement to get me out of that funk. I woke with a better attitude, whatever happens just happens and I can't control it.

I got a better report this afternoon. All 7 are still growing and are between 3 and 4 cells which is normal for day 2. Some were less than 10% fragmentation, the rest between 10 and 20%. One of the ones that hadn't showed any growth yesterday had started to divide. I have 8 embryos and will be transferring the best 2 tomorrow at 10am est.
