3rd transfer up and coming 😰

I'm so so nervous to have my 3rd transfer.My two

Previous embryos were a 5AA and 5bb neither worked my lining was perfect, i just don't understand why my body keeps rejecting the embryos ... I have one 4bb left... it sounds awful and I feel so guilty but I have no faith left. If the two others didn't work why would this lesser quality one work... I feel so guilty thinking that. Also I feel like my body has killed the last two 😰 I even feel reluctant to have it. I know that sounds weird. I have a few weeks to get my mind and body in shape, but I've just given up already.

I had a top quality blastocyst on our first round, it was even hatching, they assured us how perfect it was. We had a bfn. Then we had a 4ab and we got a bfp which ended in our mmc in April. Now my bfp is a 4bb. We were assured that the second and third embryos (although not as perfect as the first one) were still very good quality. Don't get too hung up on the grade. Don't lose hope. It could be third time lucky for you 🍀 xx

Lord Robert winston points out that the only way of really knowing if an embryo is great quality is if it ends up being a baby. I agree you shouldn't get too hung up on the grades, they're a best guess from the embryologist, that's all. It's often not down to your lining or your body at all, it's the embryo itself which is sadly not viable. But whilst there's an embryo there's a chance. Hold on to your hope... you just never know xx

Great idea! Honestly I've had more success with my grade 4s than I did with my 5 xx

Thank you so much for your kind words. I know what you mean ! I think we've had so much shocks and set backs the last 4 years my confidence just dived ! I have my treatment plan Thursday and going to request some counselling alongside my next transfer as well acupuncture and lots of relaxation :) our embryologist seems pretty pleased that we had 3 embryos from our first cycle so really we are very very lucky ! Thank you for your support ! Xxx
