In a dish down the street . . .

there are 16 eggs fertilized and growing!  I got my fertilization report today.  We started out with 18 eggs, 1 of which was not mature enough.  Of the 17 remaining, 16 fertilized!!!!  Those are some good odds!  They used ICSI (where they put the sperm into the egg with a microscopic needle) on 9 of the eggs, and let the remaining 8 fertilize naturally.  Eight out of the 9 ICSI eggs fertilized, and 8 out of 8 fertilized naturally!

Now we wait for tomorrow to find out how they're progressing!  We could either have a transfer on Thursday or on Saturday.  I'm hoping for Saturday so I don't have to miss anymore work!
