We have a Snowbaby - OMG !!!!

So my last IVF we had no embryos make it to freeze....and I was pretty upset....

Just got the call that this time around. that one of our little embabies has made it to freeze !!

I AM SO HAPPY !!

Just to know that if GOD FORBID this time doesn't work, that I get a FET - we are in shared risk, and only would have had one fresh try left....or to know that down the line, if we ever wanted a 2nd child.....OMG !! This is great news for us !

Also, I am wondering - if this embryo made it to freeze and it was not chosen as one to be transferred - that the 2 that went back in must have been really really good quality...which could maybe give us an even better chance for a BFP !!! Right? Who knows, I am rambling...I am just so happy!!!

Just wanted to share !!

Thanks.

Thoughts, and are with you all !!
