Mission complete!

This was my Richard this morning!

The procedure went well. Rich and I met at 7:00am, (thanks Mom for keeping the kids!)collected the sample and then went for breakfast. The counts were 29% motility, 54% morphology with a total count of 19.4 million per ml. We returned to the office and waited for our turn. They called us back at about 9:20. The counts after the sperm prep were 43% motility, 65% morphology with a count of 30.2 million per ml. The doctor inserted a speculum, inserted the catheter with the sperm, injected it and then put a cap on my cervix. I laid there for 10 minutes and then we were on our way. He headed to work and so did I. We were out of there by 9:40.

I am so tired now, I don’t do 5am very well. I am planning on taking it easy tonight. I considered driving to Rich for one more BDing session, but decided that it would be better for me to just rest. It only takes ONE sperm, and right now there are 30 million swimming around up there. If God wants it to happen, it will happen. I am trying so very hard not to obsess this time. There is nothing I can do to change or control the situation, so I am trying to relax and give it to God. It is going to be brutal not to be able to test for 14 days! I was talking to a friend of mine today that is a surrogate and she was able to get a BFP 5 days after her transfer!!! 5 days is a bit more my style!!!! I go in for progesterone draw on Monday. I will post results as soon as I have them. Keep praying for us!!

Prayers and thoughts are with you. That is a lot of spermies! Does it increase the percentage with that many swimming around?
