Of course, the time I don't take my phone with me, is of course the time the clinic call back. So when I find my better half, she's already talking to them about our results. On speakerphone. In a café. Which is of course amazing timing.
On average, the statistics for people in our age range is that there about 10 eggs are collected, of which 60-70% may be fertilised. 
Our numbers are:
11eggs were harvested and after 
19hours
8are fertilised.
Which is incredible.
It's like having had a year of trying for a baby condensed into a single month. It's the year of emotional highs and lows, concentrated into a fraction of the time. The intensity and rollercoaster of mood-swing cliff-edges is exhausting. 
But it's a year of trying, and a year of energy.
Onwards to tomorrow, to see how our family of eggs are getting on.
Fingers-crossed.
