Vera, Chuck and Dave

When we did our fresh cycle, we named our embryos.  It was mostly a joke to help alleviate the tension.  On day 3, all 6 were rated as average and Greg and I worried that they wouldn't make it to blastocyst.  Greg suggested that we name them so they would know that they were all wanted (6 kids? Sure, why not?). 

We rattled off 6 names that started with E (for embryo).   I can't remember them all except that they were very uncreative (like Emily, Ed, Emma etc.).  On day 4 the embryos reached the morula stage of development so we renamed them with six M names (Maverick, Miranda, Mark, Mary, Mork and Mindy).  On day 5, the embryos reached the blastocyst stage.  We transferred "Beneto" and "Bianca".  In the freezer are "Brian", "Brianna" and "Brenda".  Sadly Mork arrested on day 5.  Greg is convinced it was a result of us having given him such a lame morula name.
