embryo transfer

This morning around 9am, while many were praying for us, jaime was the recipient of 3 embryos... we had some very healthy, well developed embryos for the transfer. I know everyone is concerned with multiples (ie, triplets, twins, etc.), here is the deal: there is less than one percent chance of having triplets with the three embryos and less than twenty five percent chance at twins... it looks like a ninety percent chance of a totally healthy baby with ivf... we just continue to be chill-axin jake calls it. So, everything is good so far and we are so blessed and so emotional. Jaime and Alysha have been snuggled up on the couch, under the blankets and I took a several hour nap... after this morning and all the tears of joy, we needed it. Amazing, I got to be in the room with Jaime and we held hands and cried while she received those beautiful embryos that are bringing the hope a new healthy child to our lives. Jeff and Alysha waited in the other room for us... it didn't take long, but our laughter and tears and eye contact was amazing. I am filling up with tears right now just typing this and remembering how precious that moment was for us... Oh, what joy and hope and love Jaime has brought to us with this incredible gift - there aren't words.... xoxo
