Sweet Sixteen

Just got the Day 3 report and am a bit overwhelmed. I can't believe that we are actually getting some good news for once. We still have 16 embryos, although it sounds like one is pretty far off track (not sure in which direction). Anyway, we have 15 that are in the 6 to 10 cell range, which is very good. And 12 of those are right at 8 cells, which is ideal. According to the embryologist, "the vast majority" are Grade 4, which is the highest they give them at this point. I teared up a bit when she said that everything looked really wonderful. I wasn't thinking straight enough to ask for any more details, but I think this will have to suffice for now. We will definitely be doing a Day 5 transfer and I'm just hoping we will still have plenty of blasts to choose from. Our initial hope was that we would have 6 blasts - 2 to transfer and 4 to save for later - so anything beyond that would just be amazing.

In other news, my massage for today was also canceled - seems the massage therapist is still sick. So I have no plans for the day and need to find something to do to amuse myself. I do have a lot of work to do to get ready for school, but it is so hard to concentrate on anything else.

They will give me a call later to give me the time to be at CCRM on Wednesday. I can't believe this is really happening...
