Day 4 - slow growers

Hi all

One of my three is now a morula this morning so transfer tomorrow but the other two are not yet morulas. She said the cells are still growing but a little slow. Does this mean they are no good? I’m quite upset about it as a I’m now panicking we’ll have no potential for a freeze. Is there still time or does this mean they aren’t very good embryos?

No unfortunately not. 2 were put back in and both failed. We are back at square one again but have faced the fact we may never have children.

I read your post and wanted to respond. I had my first round of IVF in March. 13 follicles but only 2 eggs collected. On the first day I was told that neither fertilised. Then I got a call later that day saying that they were mistaken, one did actually actually fertilise. It was just slow. It kept going but they decided on Day 4 that it was not developing at a decent rate so I was advised not to transfer. The whole process is emotionally draining and so upsetting. It is assumed that egg quality is the issue for me.

Plan and do some things that make YOU feel like yourself again. Take care x x x
