The crazy thing is that I do not feel 40. My DH and I are in a really good spot in our lives right now and having a family would be perfect. I use to regret not having children when I was younger but I have only been with my DH for 3 years.
Kay, normally my RE only transfers 2. My ED had previous success with recipients getting pregnant. They retrieved 20 eggs, 15 fertilized. day 3 there were 10 really good quality embryos. When I went for my day 5 transfer there were only 3 embryos that made it to blast. We were all shocked!! One embryo was of poor quality and very fragmented. My RE said it would most likely not survive being frozen and thawed. We then had an option basically to transfer all 3 or waste one. Remarkably they all implanted!! Again I was shocked because the 3rd one really was not very good quality (althought it had been a couple days earlier).
My RE gave us the standard talk about the risks of having triplets and selection reduction option. I am very attached to the 3rd little one. It was smaller than the other 2 on the 1st u/s but we heard the heartbeat! I am looking forward to my u/s this Thursday and I am also a bit scared too!! The doctor told me that it is common for one or two of the multiples to vanish. I feel really good actually. I am really really tired, hungry in the morning and my boobs will soon have their own zip code, but I feel great!
