4th embryo transfer . How much can we handle ?

Hi everyone. I'm feeling so confused about my 4th time of IVF. Basically, I had my 4th transfer today. Had 3 frozen embryo, my doctor said that even if I'm young, since I've been trying a lot and all transfers failed, he was willing to put the three if it's average quality. Never had the chance to have a blastocyst. And doctor said it's better for me to put a day 2 to get him back it in his natural belonging.

Well ... ! Two didn't survived the thawing, and one survived so they transferred it today (Day 2, 4 cells, which I think it's not bad but does it really mean something ?) I feel like I'm so fatalistic. Like I don't believe deeply that it's going to work. I am not allowing myself to have some more hope. Last BFN was terribly difficult and heartbreaking. I was so convinced to be pregnant. Do someone by chance has had a miracle with a 2day embryo ? I'm really taking any advices. I'm on board for 2WW now and already hating it. I am grateful though to have been able to transfer an embryo, I know many of you are still praying for that step to come, and I wish the best of luck to every single woman fighting for babies. We are definitely WARRIORS

Hi lilou3110 , I know exactly how you feel I’ve lutterslly just posted the same question. We’ve just transferred a day 2 embryo yday and I’m so nervous. We were also told it had high fragmentation so I’m really not feeling hopefully. Did they say if yours had any fragmentation? They did say that they have successfull pregnancies from Day 2 so I’m clinging to that 🤞🤞

Hi Beacon_of_hope ! Well we are on the same boat right now ! They didn't say anything, just that it had 4 cells and it was good for day 2. My doctor is supposed to send the final report soon. We have to be strong and believe even if it's difficult. What more can we do during the 2WW?
