Our little Grade 3CC is here! *Birth announcement*

Hello Ladies, it's been a long time since I posted anything, but after a rollercoaster few years, our little miracle was born on 16th June 2018. This forum helped me so much - answering questions, sharing advice and simply having support to get through the dark days.

I just want to say, never ever give up hope! after nearly 6 years, our baby is here. I remember being devasted when we received the news that only 2 embryos out of 10 had made it - one being a grade 3cc and one being lower. We put all our faith in our little 3cc, despite being told it wasn't the highest quality - and now she is here!

I wish everyone so much luck. Keep fighting ladies and stay strong! I used to love reading the birth announcements, as they gave me hope and the strength to keep going. I hope this posts does the same for some of you.

Thank you all for your support.

My friend ended up having a 2 day transfer with 2 embies that were not very good quality. She was devastated but she gave birth to a little girl in July. Good luck with your transfer xx

wishing you so much luck today! 3BC is great :-) I was disheartened after my transfer and cried for 2 days (it had felt like a pretty negative transfer for us), but now I'm sitting holding her. Sending you lots of positive vibes for today xxx

What a brilliant outcome. Congratulations on your little girl xx

Aw wow congratulations! I have just had a really poor quality 3 cell, fragmented, 3 day embryo put back in and was feeling really low when I came out. This has put so much hope and happiness back into my heart! Hope you are enjoying every minute 😘😘 What does grade 3cc mean just out of interest? My clinic don’t grade embryos. Congrats again! Xxx

thank you! I felt exactly the same as you after the transfer - I cried for 2 days, before i rallied myself and started to hope! I now feel so guilty that I ever doubted my little girl. It's easy to say, but but try to stay strong and plan lots of lovely things over the next 2 week's. I'm wishing you so much luck and will be thinking of you.

As far as I understand it, a 5AA or 4AA is the top embryo you can have. With a 3CC the doctors told us to be prepared for disappointment. But... it just goes to show that science doesn't know everything and that in our case, the grade wasnt that important at all :-) I've got everything crossed for your little embryo xxx
