Over the moon!

Today we transferred four perfect little embryos to our surrogate. I can't believe it even as I type it.

I had slept terribly and had really prepared myself for awful fertilization results. What a shock!

Of our 15 eggs, 14 fertilized normally. We had 6 perfect embryos, four average embryos and the remaining four were slowing in growth. Those four slow ones are going to be watched for one more day in the hopes that they will get strong enough to freeze. We transferred four of our six perfect embryos to the surrogate and have frozen the remaining six embryos. I sat in the waiting room with our surrogate waiting for transfer; she showed me pictures of her family and her children. She was happy and smiling. I am really comfortable with her and her obvious willingness and happiness to carry a pregnancy.

I choked back tears when the doctors gave me the results and have cried off and on all afternoon because I am so thrilled. When Bob and I decided to come back to India to try again, it was because we didn't think our first try was a fair try. We had such lousy fertilization that first time, it really hurt. I think deep down I believed it would happen again. No matter what the result of that pregnancy test, the honest truth is that my mind will be at ease that we were able to try our best! After years of infertility, every little victory is something to enjoy.

We are over the moon and can't wait until our pregnancy test. It's going to be a long two weeks, but it's in God's hands now.
