Update on progress at day 5

Good morning.

Quick update as I’ve just got off the phone with hospital.

Of our three little embryos 2 survived to day 3 and were still looking good.

Both of those have made it to blastocyst stage but one is significantly stronger than the other and is really good quality so that’s the one they’re wanting to transfer today. The other one isn’t looking so good and may not be suitable to freeze but as they’re living things it could change and they’ll update us again when we go in.

I’m currently in complete shock as I’d spent all weekend stressing myself out and thinking none of them would have made it. Just have to keep everything crossed now that my body knows what to do and the strong one carries on being such a fighter

Great news! Why don’t you ask them to transfer both if they think the other one won’t be suitable for freezing?

Wishing best of luck and I hope will be a sticky one!! 🥰🥰🥰🤞🤞🤞🤞💕💕💕💕xxx

Thank you so much. I did think about asking them but doubt they would allow it with the other being so strong and with my age etc. Our clinic are quite strict on their single transfer policy and think they’d only do two blastocysts if I was over 40. May still have the conversation though just in case there is a chance xx

Mine is the same. If you are under 35 and with good amh no way to let you transfer two. My consultant knows how much I would like that and every single time we see him he is “so we will transfer a SINGLE embryo into your uterus” 😂😂😂😂😂

But yes just ask for it you never know 🥰 How exciting stick embaby stick 🤞🤞🤞🤞💕💕xxxx

Just a single one transferred, it was a grade 5BA so we are super happy. The other one was 2CC so chances weren’t great anyway. Just need to hope and pray for this one now it’s onboard

Wow great news!! Hope your transfer goes well ♥️

As Klndmr said, if it was me and the other one didn’t look like it was going to make it, I would push for both to be transferred! Xx

Good luck, I’ll keep everything crossed that we both get positive outcomes. My clinic have asked me to wait 14 days before testing even though it was a 5 day transfer so I’ll find out a week after you. Wishing you all the best x
