I remember her saying a few years ago that "she had a frozen embryo that needed to be brought to life". Aren't the odds of thawed embryo's working pretty slim? I think she's VERY fortunate that both first attempts resulted in pregnancies! You won't need to used any frozen ones because you'll ahev triplets on the first try! :>)
Yeah, I can't believe it actually worked so well for her. They say that the embryo has to survive the fertilization, freezing, and then thawing...alot of them don't make it. She is extremely lucky!
And if I have triplets, will you let Elizabeth babysit at the ripe age of 9? I know you won't mind, right?
Babysit? You won't be going anywhere for years! LOL! And if she is babysitting for you at the age of nine then doing the math would make for some teeny weeny brand new babies! Let's say 10!
I am 34 years old and my husband, Andy, is 39. We have been married for 12 years, and tried to conceive for nearly 7 years through female and male factor infertility. After 7 IUIs, 2 surgeries, a miscarriage, and 3 IVFs/ICSI, we welcomed twin boys March 5, 2012 thanks to donor egg IVF/ICSI. Thanks for supporting us through our journey to the center of my uterus!
