It was perfect. We went to see a male factor urologist. We really didn't get any answers. We were given to option of throwing a ton of money at this problem or trying TESE. It's a procedure in which the doctor cuts pieces of testicular tissue out and the lab takes them and tries to find sperm. They gave us an 80% chance of having sperm. We decided to have donor sperm as a back up. I have been let down so hard the last two times and am willing to try anything.
I stimmed perfect. We went in on a Wednesday to have our egg retrieval and TESE. DH went first and waited upstairs in our RE's surgical waiting area for him. About 5 minutes prior to going back for my ER the embryologist came in and told me there was little to no sperm. She said she could find maximum of 3. Queue the devastating crying. Crying while getting put under, OK, sobbing while getting put under and thanking the anesthesiologist for the drugs. They retrieved 19 eggs. 11 were mature. They ICSI'd 3 eggs with DH sperm and 7 with DS. They all fertilized!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We even got to do a five day transfer!!!!! On the morning of transfer, the RE called. DH listened to the voicemail, while I curled up on the floor and started to cry. I knew for sure they were all dead. BUT>>>> All of DH's embryos had arrested. CRAP!!!!!! We were still on for transfer and 2 little frosties were already chilling out in the cryo :)
DH took it very well. I cried later but I was ultra~emotional with all the meds.
We transferred 2 beautiful blasts. I cried. This was it. I took my PIO with pleasure. This had to work. And it did. I had positive rising betas. At my 8 week ultrasound, there was nothing there. Nothing. Not a thing. Now where do we go from here. I don't know.
