Got a call from from the biologist already this morning. Of the eleven eggs retrieved, 10 were fertilized and 9 are showing very healthy signs of cell division. They're going to keep an eye on the other one with the hopes it's just a bit behind the others.
Good news for me (Clint) is that they evidently found enough sperm to freeze "two vials". I don't know how many sperm that is, but it's very good news should we have to go through Round 3. They won't have to go digging in my balls! Yay!
So, we're not only doing well on our primary goal (fertilized eggs), we are looking good to attaining our secondary goal -- enough fertilized eggs to freeze -- and developed a very unexpected third benefit of allowing me to skip a round of surgery should things go way south over the next few days.
In short, things couldn't be going better to this point.
