"With eggs, it seems that there should be sperm." Cheng Wanyi reminded, and looked at the Lu Jiangchuan with both eyes.

"Yes, sperm!" Jiu Podi's gaze also swept towards him, "Do you need me to talk more about this?" Compared with egg retrieval, sperm retrieval is really comfortable and safe. ”

"Young man, what are you blushing for? Or do you want to have a beautiful nurse to help you on your way? The Nine Woman quipped.

"How dare he?" Cheng Wanyi immediately said.

"Wife, you are really, didn't you see the ninth woman teasing the two of us! I'll just be able to take this sperm alone. Lu Jiangchuan hurriedly reassured, and quickly diverted the topic, "Do the sperm and eggs taken out have to be separated?" ”

"Of course, the retrieved eggs are put into a test tube, and after separation, cleaning, etc., they are transferred to a pre-balanced culture medium, and then placed in an incubator with relatively constant temperature, humidity, and gas conditions to wait quietly for the meeting with the processed sperm." Jiu Po continued, "The third step is that the sperm and egg tie the knot, when the sperm and egg are placed in the same culture vessel to cultivate feelings, about six to eight hours later, Miss Egg's defense is breached. ”

"It's a fertilized egg so quickly." Cheng Wanyi was surprised.

"This cell is an hour, but the world is a year. It's not easy! "Jiu Po said, can this still be considered fast?" By the way, the fertilized egg is afraid of bright light and must work in total darkness. ”

"There were several fertilized eggs at once." Lu Jiangchuan asked.

"Yes, the next step is to screen for defective embryos through DNA technology." Jiu Po said again, without waiting for Lu Jiangchuan to ask, she hurriedly said, "The fourth step, return to the hometown, after three to five days of cultivation, we will select one to three of the best quality." Implanted in the mother's womb. ”

"Can artificial implantation avoid ectopic pregnancy?" Lu Jiangchuan raised a question about his wife's health.

"You're asking a stupid question, you forgot that embryos are swimming in the womb. It's the same as normal conception and implantation. Jiu Po looked at him and shook her head and smiled.

Lu Jiangchuan was not annoyed, scratching his head, "I'm sorry." You continue. ”

"The last step is to escort, you need to inject progesterone for fetal protection, and you can check the pregnancy status after a week." Jiu Po said with a smile.

"Ahh So fast. Cheng Wanyi was surprised.

"What is the probability of its successful conception?" Lu Jiangchuan asked.

"The probability is 40 to 60 percent." Jiu Po said.

"Even if there is a chance, I will try it too." Cheng Wanyi said firmly.

"Okay, well, we'll try anyway." The land river boat was raised. "What do I need to do?"

"Operating theatre available. Culture medium, incubator, -196 °C liquid nitrogen tank to preserve embryos. Jiu Po continued, "The human embryo culture medium mainly includes: water, salts, energy substances, amino acids, vitamins, proteins, etc., which simulate the internal environment of embryonic development in a normal woman. Each ingredient has its own important function. ”

"Is this culture medium safe? I have always been an artificial environment for the growth of embryos, which is always inferior to the conditions in my mother's uterus and fallopian tubes. Cheng Wanyi muttered, but the reality is in front of her, and she can only use this method to realize her dream of being a mother.

"In addition, whether in vitro culture will affect the health of offspring, the important indicators are the gestational age of the baby and the birth weight of the baby. Perinatal complications, metabolic disorders in adulthood, or genetic patterns of intergenerational succession. "There is so much that the land river boat has to think about.

"Don't worry! Embryo culture broth does not directly cause preterm birth and affect the baby's birth weight. The ninth woman patted her chest and assured that there was still magic power to escort her, and there would be no problems.

"Then the incubator should also be special!" Lu Jiangchuan asked.

"Hmmm! These are incubators, which are equivalent to a woman's uterus, where the temperature is maintained at 37°C, and the humidity, carbon dioxide and oxygen concentrations are regulated with reference to the relevant indices of the human body. Open the incubator and go inside! It is divided into small compartments like a refrigerator compartment. On each partition, there are several transparent glass dishes. These incubators are like artificial wombs, which store sperm, eggs. The ninth woman said it simply.

"Kid dad! In vitro fertilization, we can transfer a few more embryos, and it will become twins or multiples. Cheng Wanyi said happily.

"Don't even think that multiple births are too harmful to the mother. We just need one. Lu Jiangchuan refused without thinking about it.

"Listen to you, a child is already a gift from God, I won't be delusional." Cheng Wanyi grabbed his hand and said softly.

"So how do you transfer an embryo into the womb and what does it take?" Lu Jiangchuan asked again from the technical aspect.

"Hmmm! A few days after fertilization, a very thin embryo transfer tube is applied. The best embryos are transferred into the mother's uterus through the cervix, and the number of embryos to be transferred depends on age, preferably with single embryo transfer or up to 2 embryos. Jiu Po's hoarse voice teased, "Don't worry! The embryo transfer tube is thin and the doctor is gentle on his movements, so your wife usually won't have any pain. ”

Jiu Po listed all the equipment and things needed and handed them to Lu Jiangzhou, "Now we also need a safe environment that is not disturbed by others. If it goes out publicly, it will make the defenders speak out, after all, it is against human ethics. ”

"Jiu Po is right." Lu Jiangchuan frowned, obviously just now only caring about the excitement and joy of being able to conceive a child.

Now that we've calmed down, this technology may be unacceptable to many more people.

Lu Jiangchuan muttered in his mouth, "Although this technology has brought hope to tens of thousands of infertility patients around the world. But the use of this technology has also sparked great controversy, starting with religious and ethical questions. ”

"I don't believe in religion, those who can conceive babies naturally are the ones who stand and talk without backache. Where did they understand my suffering? Cheng Wanyi said as she spoke, tears fell again.

"Okay, okay, don't cry, help think about where to do the operation." Lu Jiangchuan scratched his head and said, "The hospital where I am definitely not successful, there are many people talking about it, what if it leaks out?" He just deleted it.

"Yes, yes, where is my uncle's shareholder, if he borrows the operating room, the laboratory is completely fine." Cheng Wanyi patted the arm of the landed river boat and said.

"That's fine, you can prepare these things for the rest." Jiu Po handed the painted utensils in her hand to Lu Jiangchuan and asked him to prepare.

Lu Jiangchuan solemnly put it away, "Thank you!" ”

"Alright, ready, let Luo'er find me." The Ninth Po stood up and said, "Oh! By the way, from now on you have to take care of your body and be fully prepared for pregnancy. ”

"Got it." The two replied in unison with red faces.

Lu Jiangchuan and his family sent Jiu Po away, watching her taxi disappear in front of them.

Cheng Wanyi looked at Lu Jiang Chuandao, "What should we do now?" ”

"Let's talk to my uncle." Cheng Wanyi doesn't care so much now, she can't wait to have everything ready now, and she will have surgery immediately.

"I mean, don't tell your family about this first, lest the time comes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and the more sad it is." Lu Jiangchuan said in a low voice.

"What about my uncle and aunt? My aunt has the same problem as me, and if I can, then so can she. Cheng Wanyi held his hand and said, "Shall we tell them that my aunt has been more painful than me all these years, and her tears have not been broken." ”

Lu Jiangchuan, who was still hesitant, sighed, "Say it! Let them decide for themselves. ”

They are now empathetic that this month has been a dead end for them, and it feels like they are living in hell every day.

Wanyi's aunt and uncle, nearly twenty years, he really can't imagine how these twenty years of ups and downs have come through.

"Husband, aren't you busy? There is no need to ask for leave. Sitting in a taxi asked.

"This Saturday, I entered my third year and it's much easier now. This is a top priority, and I will look at it. Lu Jiangchuan said.

The two of them were full of joy and couldn't suppress smiles on their faces.

"There's no one at home! I haven't answered the door for so long. Cheng Wanyi patted her forehead and said, "I forgot that today is Sunday, my aunt and uncle must be at my mother's house." ”

"Find a place and call home." Lu Jiangchuan found a phone booth, and Cheng Wanyi was about to dial with the receiver, "I'll come!" Your voice will be heard by the family as soon as they hear it. He took the receiver from her hand.

"Alright then!" Cheng Wanyi pressed down the number.

"Uh-huh! Ahem! Lu Jiangchuan cleared his throat and lowered his voice, "Hey, hello, I'm looking for Yun Shenglie!" Please ask him to listen to the phone. ”

"Okay, wait a minute!" Cheng Zhiyao shouted after speaking, "Uncle, look for your phone." ”

Yun Shenglie, who was playing Go with the old man, said, "Dad, it's my phone." He got up and walked to the door, suddenly turned around and said, "Don't do anything after I'm gone!" ”

"Stinky boy, hurry up and listen to the phone!" Grandpa Cheng waved his hand to let him leave.

Yun Shenglie picked up the earpiece and smiled, "Hey! Hello, I'm Yun Shenglie, who is looking for me! ”

"Uncle is me, Lu Jiangchuan."

"You kid, you're mysterious, you can't just find me to be generous." Yun Shenglie quipped, "Why don't you know your family!" ”

"Uncle, it's convenient to speak now!" Lu Jiangchuan asked.

Yun Shenglie looked left and right and said, "Hmm! Go ahead! ”

"Uncle, I hope you listen to my next words calmly, don't get too excited, you'd better sit on the sofa now." Yun Shenglie frowned lightly and sat on the sofa.

With Lu Jiangchuan's next words, the corners of his mouth gradually pursed into a line, his originally smiling face converged, and his body shook uncontrollably.

Yun Shenglie's lips trembled, "Boy, what you said is true. ”

"It's specific, your name is Auntie, come together, and I'll tell you in detail." Lu Jiangchuan said simply. (To be continued.) )
