Love you, Nathan.
After almost 2 years trying to conceive our first child, we had success with IVF. At 38 weeks, we lost our son, Nathan, due to his umbilical cord being wrapped around his neck twice. This blog is about trying to survive the passing of our child, while moving forward with fertility treatments to continue to expand our family.

Egg Retrieval Day
So we had the egg retrieval this morning. I took the Valium at 6:15, arrived at the office at 6:45, procedure was at 7:30 and we were out of recovery by 9:00. The final number of eggs they got was 8! I couldn't believe it! It was less than a week ago when they wanted to convert to an IUI because of 2 or 3 eggs. We'll get a call in the morning about how they fertilized. The fertilization rate is usually around 50%. We'll see but I thank God for the results of this morning. I was so nervous and couldn't sleep. Keep praying for us, we still got some big days ahead of us.
