Hallelujah! We're back!
All of us flew in on Tuesday, did as much laundry as we needed for a trip to the Lake, and headed out for a quick vacay Wednesday!
So, we have had a pretty successful trip and feel that there is nothing left hanging over our heads to keep drawing us back to India regardless of how this all turns out. We've used all our eggs, used a fresh sperm sample rather than freezing some, and all bills are paid. If it works, we'll make one more trip for baby pick-up. If not, no more 14.5 hour flights to (what seems like) the hottest place on earth for us! We said goodbye to the people we've so enjoyed meeting at the hospital, and are thankful to have had the experience of seeing India over the last few years.
Here's the long-story-short version:
12 folicles
8 eggs retrieved + 2 thawed (only 1 survived the thaw)
3 transferred to Carrie on Day 2 at 4 cells
4 others survived to do a Day 5 transfer to the Indian surrogate
Beta test in India is scheduled for the 14th! Carrie is planning hers for a few days after that. Fingers crossed!
