Update on our Embies

We heard back from the NEDC and we didn't get the embies that we had put down as our first choice. Someone else had chosen them first. But we did get our second and third choices. Our second choice are from a couple from North Carolina ( another favorite state of ours) and there are 4 blastocyst embies. We shouldn't need to go to our 3rd choice embies but they are from Pennsylvania. We are excited to meet our little embies on November 19th. And we are glad that we know which ones we will receive so we can begin to specifically pray for them. We pray for all of these little embies and our thankful that they will get a chance at life!

Coming Up

Our third and final embryo transfer is coming up. It was quiet there for a while after our second transfer. There is not much to do except move on. We enjoyed our summer and now things are picking up again. We were given a date of November 19th for our third transfer. And we were able to make our choices for our embyros on friday. We are waiting to hear back to see if we were given our first choice. But our first choice is a couple from Virginia. They have 5 blastocyst embryos and they are both on the younger side. So we will find out shortly if those will be our embies. I will begin my protocol in a couple of weeks. It's hard to believe it's already time for all of this again. I think we are really hopeful that this third and final transfer will work for us this time. But I think we are just also ready to find out if it doesn't work so that we can move on and see where God takes us next on this journey. I have had some time to reflect lately and I won't go into it now but I although at times feel anxious about everything, have really felt that I have come to a place where I feel peace. I'll post more once we know more!
