We’ve had our day 3 update after egg collection on Friday!!
All 5 are still with us but a mixture of gradings......2 good, 2 average and 1 poor!! She said the poor is only poor because it’s 7 cells and not 8!
I didn’t really understand and don’t think I took it all she said as I was so nervous when the phone rang 🙈!
But anyway we’re booked in for transfer on Wednesday at 3pm
If anyone could give me and info on embryo grading I’d be really grateful xxxx
This all sounds pretty positive Lisa. On day 3 the preferred number of cells in an embryo is 8 however you can see embryos with 9, 7, 6 etc. The clinics are also looking for the division of cells to be equal sized with mininmal fragmentation. Ive attached this link for you to have a read through. Hope it helps. Good luck.xx

Brilliant thank you I’ll have a read!! She did say it could catch up but she was doubtful!! Guess they won’t no till Wednesday xxx
That's great news they're all still going!! Good luck for the transfer xxx
Thank you xxx
🤞🤞🤞 you will do transfer and have some to freeze... looking forward to welcoming you to the 2ww 😉
Thank you we’re really hoping so too!! This is our second cycle and In our first we had 4 at collection and only two made it to day 5! Apparently both good grade embryos! First ended In a chemical and second was a bfn!!! Go I guess the grading doesn’t mean anything!! Xxx
Ps - on my first ICSI, I end up with one poor embryo at day 3 which we decided to transfer there and then in case we lost him. That day 3 poor quality embryo is now s very big, healthy and naughty 4 year old. I also had a good quality embryo transfer at day 5 that unfortunately I MC at week 10.... so as you can see quality of embryo does not equal pregnancy or healthy baby.... be strong 💪
I had one looking a bit worrying last week and it caught up too, so try not to worry too much. (I know that’s easier said than done) wishing lots of luck for Wed xx
Ah really well hopefully it might catch up then!! How many did you end up with???
It’s all a worry isn’t it 🙈 but we seem to cope somehow xxx thank you xx
We ended up with three which I was pleased with . It’s amazing what we can deal with x
Fab!! I’d be pleased if we end up with 3 too! It sure is, how do we do it 🙈 xx
All sounding good hoping for smooth transfer and BFP at end of 2ww x
Thank you xx
It’s definitely such a nervous wait for those updates. I think that was a positive phone call. Best of luck for Wednesday xx
Oh it sure is!! Yes it was positive let’s just hope it carries on being Positive news!! Roll on Wednesday xxx
