Results are in!

Well, I guess my freakout worked, lol. The results just came in. Dr. G called and, at first, I thought he was calling about my crazy emails from yesterday (hehe) but he was (after small talk that I was DYING through, even though I love him) calling to give me the results...so without more procrastinating...out of 4 embryos we sent, 2 are NORMAL (4bb and 5bb) and 1 is a "no results" and 1 is abnormal with monosomie 16. Yay! My egg quality appears to be "normal" (ok, he didn't say that but the genetic counselor said for my age, normal is between 25% and 50% coming back normal so I am reading into that). Oh, I used to hate that word, normal, but it is music to my ears today. NORMAL. So, I don't have to worry about banking another cycle just yet. Hopefully sometime next year (oh, say, after the birth of my child or children) I will be considering another cgh cycle and maybe I'll do a few ERs with that one (one more year older you know)...but, until then, we are heading straight for a FET!!!!

Now, I know some bloggers post fun and silly videos of themselves dancing (which I love) and if I could, I would totally post a big old video of myself dancing my 'results are in' dance which is absolutely NOT normal, and which my dogs absolutely love since they are all jumping around me and barking like crazy:-) (oh, did I mention we were dogsitting my mom's 3 again?).

Yay!

I have been on the edge of my seat watching IVFC and here ... I was pulling my hair out when you thought that other girl had leap frogged you in line ... ARGH!

But now the day is here and the results are amazing!

Congrats, how wonderful!

Would you mind sharing the rating for the abnormal and the no result? were they "better" or "worse" looking blasts?

This is so wonderful, Sue. I couldn't be happier for you. The torturous wait is finally over and now you can start really looking forward to the FET. It's such a great feeling to be out of the "waiting for results"t tunnel. I absolutely cannot wait for follow along with your transfer and good news shortly after. xxxxxxx

YAY Sue!! I did a little dance for you too! :) That is wonderful news and it made my day!

Sky said...

I always love to toot my own horn in the crazy witch psychic I can be (for someone who doesn't believe in the supernatural) 'cause I think I'd said earlier that I bet you'd have 2 normals. Voila - there you have it! :)

So when is the projected transfer?

Sky said...

Oh....wait....CONGRATS! I wasn't surprised but VERY VERY HAPPY for you!

DAVs said...

This is great news!!! Can't wait for you to get to that transfer!

Linda said...

Wonderful news!! And really good quality to boot! We didn't transfer CGH normal embryos per se, remember the 7 no results?... Anyway, we had them re-thawed and re-biopsied for FISH and transferred one unknown quality (from the FL clinic), one 4BB, and one 3BB. Now remember they went through 2 biopsies...Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that I have really high hopes for success for you considering yours are CGH normal and good qualities!! I am extremely excited for you!! I can't wait for when you start your FET! Woo-hoo!!!!!!!!!

Nikki said...
