It's a good thing I didn't sleep in this morning because the RE called bright and early!
12 of the 13 eggs were mature and 6 fertilized and the plan is to do a 5dt and transfer 2. He said the ones that fertilized look good. Honestly, I'm not quite sure what he'd say if they didn't look good - he always seems so confident. I don't think he'd completely blow smoke up my ass, but maybe since we're this far he would?
When we got our initial dx he was pretty darn honest - he stressed that we had a less than 50% chance of being able to try for a baby without donor gametes/embryos. I'm sure (or at least choosing to believe) that if there was cause for concern he would say something.
As much as I don't like the idea of waiting and wondering how our little embryos are doing - I know the 2ww will be a whole new kind of waiting torture. Until then, I'm trying to remember that we beat the odds once. And that was something that no change in protocol or trying again could change.
I asked about how many vials we used and we only used 1 - so we CAN try again! Of course, the RE said we wouldn't need the other 2 (example of the confidence I was talking about) but I like knowing we have options.
If we're really lucky maybe we'll get to use them for a second or third baby! Ok - we might have to win the lottery to try all this a 3rd time - but a girl can dream :)
