Results are in...

so, i had the anxious overnight wait to see what the results were from the Sperm Bank...

and....

they got 3 straws!

To give an indication....they use about 1/2 - 1 straw per fresh IVF.

There were excellent numbers...but low motility (meaning lots of them would prefer to swim in circles then in a nice straight line). I had a chat to the nurse and she thinks that they would be perfect for ICSI (where they inject the sperm into the egg) but not so sure about traditional IVF (where they just stick the eggs in a dish with the sperm and let them fight it out).

For a while we had Mark taking Selenium which is great for sperm motility so i'll go grab some more of that today...just incase it helps. Also, the boys we took in yesterday had been growing for 4 days...meaning in sperm terms they were a bit old. So, because this is ovulation weekend for me...the boys on tuesday will only be 2 days...it can make a massive difference so we will see if the results that day are better!

So, we have to do another dash in on Tuesday morning....more fun and games. Have not got my plan totally sorted in my head yet...but, as always...we will find an interesting solution!
