retrieval

Well, they only got two eggs. The doctor says they'll still do the PGD, though. So most likely I won't be having an embryo transfer on Monday. We're clearly disappointed.

On the upside, we don't have to wait to start our second cycle. With no transfer, I should be getting my period in about 2 weeks from now, and I should start the pill right away. They will be much more aggressive with my medications the next time.

I'm going to take it easy for now.

Rachel... I am so sorry, hon. Take it easy for now, I will hold out hope for a miracle.

Looks like we're going to be cycling together again...

*hug* Love to you.

That really sucks! I'm so sorry. I'll still be holding out hope for your two eggs to fertilize and be awesome but I know how disappointing all of this has to be. Hang in there!

Rachel, I'm sorry. I know you are disappointed - but I'm going to keep hoping for now.

Oh Rachel, I'm so sorry. It is so hard to go through so much, all the meds, the anxiety, the emotional upheavals and have it come down to two eggs. It really sucks! Hang in there. I'll be thinking of you and still holding some hope that the 2 you got could still do what you need.

i'm glad you're taking it easy. i'm so sorry you've had such disappointing news. it's sucks to go through a whole cycle and get to a disappointing ER. you take it easy, and take care of yourself through the blues, while the rest of us continue to hope for you that these are the perfect little eggs you needed all along.
