Half

Half

Twice the effort.

Twice the emotions.

Twice the pain.

And probably almost twice the money.

We have 3 embryos.  For now.

We started with 7 eggs.  Of the seven, 5 were mature.  I think they either tried something else or are in the middle of trying something else with those 2 unripe ones, but I don’t think they took. 

Of the five, 3 have fertilized. 

In many situations, three is great!  But in our situation, this is HALF of where we were the last time.   We got that first call telling us we had 6, followed by the second call telling us they were all fragmented. 

How can I remain positive when there’s only three this time?  What if they are fragmented again.  I had hoped with 6, there was a chance to have some to freeze.  It’s highly doubtful we will with three. 

How can it be like this?  We put so much into this round.  Less stress, better thoughts, more research, more opinions, more money.  Statistically, I thought it gets better with each round. 

Half.  I can’t even describe what it feels like to watch your odds decrease by the hour.  I think I’m going to be sick waiting for tomorrow’s call.
