Update
Went in for transfer this morning. Embryologist said we had 7 blasts to choose from out of our ten. DH and I were planning on transferring two but they talked us out of it.
We transferred one perfect grade 4AA blast, Rudolf. Now I'm home on the couch hoping Ruddy is snuggling in.
The embryologist will call tomorrow and tell us how many we have to freeze. She assumes the remaining 6 from today will freeze and POSSIBLY two more. That would mean we had 90% make it to transfer/freeze!
We're asking for lots of snuggling vibes since we are both very scared and excited right now. And here's a pic of Rudolf for you!

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."
