May 7, 2006




It is the morning of the procedure, and I think we are all feeling more relaxed than we expected. We were able to eat Lesley's favorite breakfast, and head to the clinic. They were so great to us at the clinic. The embryologist gave us a picture of the 2 embryos that they chose for the procedure, and he gave us the petri (sp?) dish that they developed in! Isn't it amazing how small we start out? They let Gary and I go into the procedure, and we were all able to watch them take them embryos out of the dish into a tube, and watch them travel to their destination on the computer screen. Amazing! I cried like a fool, and one of the nurses took pictures the whole time! It was a really wonderful experience, and we were so glad to be able to participate.

When we got home, we chose to watch movies and relax all day . . . that is what our (Lesley and I) favorite thing is to do! We ate soup, and Lesley was quite positive she was pregnant. I can't tell you how awesome it has been to have someone so positive involved in this process. The embryologist did say we were in the "gimme" category due to our ages, quality of blastocyst, and going to a 5-day transfer. We hope he is right!
