All babies are different, because they have different genetic programming instructions that tell them exactly how to develop including what color eyes and hair to have, what shape of nose to grow and so on. These special instructions are encoded in the form of DNA, contained in a baby's chromosomes. What is really special is that a baby's DNA comes 50% from the father and 50% from the mother and combine to form a unique individual who is a little bit like each of the parents.
The way that a baby's father passes on his genetic information is via his SPERM. The way a baby's mother passes on her genetic information is via her EGGS. So in order to have a baby, we need sperm and eggs. We also need a friendly environment in which the sperm and eggs can find each other and come together to form a fertilized embryo. We then need a safe home for the embryo to grow.
Couples who have trouble getting pregnant either have a problem with SPERM, a problem with their EGGS or a problem with the internal environment. Many times, there are multiple problems in more than one of these areas.

The egg retrieval procedure utilizes a vaginal ultrasound probe, which has a metal guide attached to it. The guide allows a hollow needle to be placed beside the probe. The tip of the needle is etched so that it is visible on the ultrasound monitor. The needle is attached to tubing that goes to a plastic tube and a gentle suction machine. The physician uses the vaginal ultrasound probe to visualize the ovaries and the follicles within them on the ultrasound monitor. Once the patient is anesthetized, the needle is pushed through the vaginal wall into one of the follicles within an ovary. As the tip of the needle penetrates the wall of the follicle, the suction machine is started. The fluid within the follicle is aspirated and flows to the plastic tube. The egg is usually loosely attached to the inner wall of the follicle and as the fluid within the follicle is withdrawn, the egg is aspirated into the tube. This tube is then given to the embryologist who examines each drop of the fluid through a microscope to look for an egg. It is common to have some follicles that do not contain eggs. Therefore, the number of follicles may not equal the number of eggs found. The procedure is finished when all the follicles from both ovaries have been aspirated. A fresh semen specimen needs to be provided by the male partner on the day of egg retrieval.
