More waiting.

Do you think it could work?

Today I think... well.... maybe it might just.

I'm waiting. Again. Different kind of waiting today. A waiting that will make any PGD (preimplantaion genetic diagnosis) veteran tremble in their boots and feel sick to the stomach. I'm in the 5 day wait. Which is even worse then the famous two week wait. The five day wait is the time between egg retrieval and fertilisation, and the testing of 5 day old embies to see if they carry the inherited genetic disorder that my stupid chromosomes carry. Literally, we are waiting to see if there are any good eggs.

Can't write anymore now. It makes me feel sick.

I hope the results at the end of the wait are good.

I am hoping for you too. I'm checking your blog regularly and really hoping for good news in 5 days.

I'm in the 5 day week too. Although we are not waiting for PGD. We get to remain blissfully ignorant on that count. I am hoping you have more than enough good embryos to transfer. Keep breathing.

I wish you well on the results! I know our worry over the number of "good" versus "bad" embryos when we did PGD was painful.

I hope you have great news soon!

Good luck. My husband has a balanced translocation as well, and I've had 3 5 day waits. I hope yours goes well.

It seems we're always waiting for something. Here's hoping that all the news will be very, very good when this particular wait is over and this particular weight is lifted.

I am thinking of you. I am sending lots of positive vibes your way for healthy results.

Hang in there and know that I am thinking of you and hoping for the absolute best results.

Ditto to all that has been said. Hoping you find some peace in these tough few days, and that all the anxiety is lifted when you get your results. Wishing you lots of luck and sending good thoughts.
