Smooth sailing

The embryo transfer went well today. Unfortunately, one of our two frozen embryos didn't thaw successfully, but we only need one and the other one looked really good apparently. We were faced with another decision to make, this time whether to go with assisted hatching or not. Our clinic do this using a laser. We asked a few questions and decided to go for it. There don't seem to be any major risks - other than it possibly causing identical twins! - and as ever we want to give ourselves the best chance. The transfer itself went really well. I was really excited prior to the procedure and the embryo was very clear on the monitor, nice and high in my uterus. Happy days :) I've bought a big lemon and blueberry drizzle cake to celebrate tonight.
