Embryo Grading

Had our ET yesterday and had a call from the embryologist this morning advising unfortunately out of our 8 remaining eggs none were suitable for freezing. I know it only takes one and we've been fortunate enough to have 9 fertilised and the one transferred but can't help feeling a bit gutted and like we have no back up plan now.

Does anyone have an idea of embryo grading? The embryologist did say the one they transferred was a 14 cell grade 3/4 which she said anything above 3/3 is classed as top grade which does give some relief - just after some positivity and know I need to focus on the one I've got inside me at the moment x

Sorry your feeling so disappointed about your remaining embryos not being able to freeze. I don't know much about grading but id say try not to focus to much on it, there's been women who have had low grade embryos transferred on day 3 and gone on to have BFP. All that matters now is it's back where it belongs and hopefully getting very comfy x

Sorry to hear you've not got any to freeze but good to hear you have a top grade embodied on board! Hoping the two goes quickly and you get your bfp xxx
