I had my ER today, they retrieved 10 eggs. RE said that was good, is that a pretty average amount? Tomorrow we'll see how many actually fertilize! I am feeling pretty good so far, minimal amount of pain, just tired from the anesthesia. Thanks everybody, have a good day! Stacy

I think everyone is different as to how many eggs you get. I had a dozen. Five were frozen and 3 were put in me. The others either didn't progress or were no good. Don't worry. They will fertilize them and watch the cells split until they are just right. My doc gave me a pic of the 8 celled embryos she put in me. It may take 3 days to hear so be patient.

I think that is a good number. I had 13 retreived, 7 fertilize. We transfered 3 and the other two died off. I am now 9 weeks pg from my first attempt, so good luck!!

Baby dust to you!!!

When I started my meds the last time, I had 7 follicles. I told the nurse I had been praying for 10-20. She kindly explained that is what they get from 20 y/o egg donors and that for my age 5-10 was great (I'm 34), so it sounds like you are doing great! Baby blessing dust to you!!

Oh, I told the nurse, "I'm still praying for 10!" She just laughed and I grinned.

The day I did my HCG shot I had 9 follicles. The day they did the ER I had 19! I was told that was more on the higher end, so I would say 10 is really good.
I am glad you are feeling pretty well. Can't wait to hear how fertilization goes! Sticky Baby Dust to you! :-)

Good job! That is a great number.
Baby dust to you!!!!

I think that is right on target! Too many and the follies might not be as good quality. Sending baby dust and sticky vibes your way!

I just had my ER a week ago today. I also had 10 eggs and 9 pf them fertilized. I transfered 2 and was able to freeze 4. The lab said that they were all very high grade eggs that turned into high grade embroys. Good luck and let us know how they do in the next few days. Sending up prayers for them.

I just had my retrieval Sunday (8 eggs), and transfer yesterday 2 embryos. Very tender in the pelvic area so I am taking it easy. Good luck with your transfer.

deleted_user 10/25/2007

Thankyou everybody! I will let you all know how many fertilized, BIG NUMBERS NO WHAMMY! LOL , Good luck to everybody, Stacy

I'm 35. Had 11 follicles and they were able to retrieve 9 eggs. 6 were mature enough to fertilize, they implanted 2 and and only 2 were able to make it to the freeze stage.
Good Luck to you, lot's of baby dust. :)
