Clever doctors and lab people who performed the ICSI, 'icksee', (intra cytoplasmic sperm injection), I just hope nature carries on behaving so they can divide and multiply. A pat on the back for us too to get this far as it's taken a lot of organising, money and patience. It's not over yet by far, I still have my fingers crossed that on Saturday we have a really good cluster of cells to transfer and some more to freeze, please!
While this anonymous blog space is essential for me I'm determined not hide the truth completely so this blog allows me to gather myself periodically in a world where most of my life changing moments are the greatest taboos and downright uncomfortable to hear. So here are the words and pictures to my story so far...

A very tentative booking for embryo transfer
So far things are going well but we won't know until Saturday morning how many of the (7 out of 9 fertilised) embryos have grown. It's comforting to know we have a few and it's worth celebrating this next hurdle of fertilization that other couples sadly fall at. I have wondered if perhaps we would be told we needed donor eggs or donor sperm as one never knows, so anyway it's another box to tick. For that, I feel very, very lucky and grateful.
