Egg retrieval is today.  As of yesterday, I only had two mature eggs.  A third one is lagging way behind and probably won't fertilize even if harvested.  For some strange reason, despite these really low numbers I still feel positive and as though it might happen for me this time.  I'm not usually a positive person, so either one of two things is going on:

 

a: I'm in complete denial about how dismal my chances are

b: I'm psychic and somehow know I'm going to get pregnant.

 

I hate to say it, but the rational part of my brain tells me that 'a' is the more likely scenario!

    I felt the same way with my IVF. Trust me.... I think attitude plays a large part and having the belief that it will happen is great. Good luck and keep me posted.

    I think I like option "b" the best! :-) I am praying this works for you. I agree with denisehigg that attitude can make a difference for many reasons. Keep me updated on the fertilization progress.
