I had 31 eggs taken, 26 were injected with sperm, 16 fertilised, 11 made it to blastocyst stage but only 2 were good enough to freeze. I was so disappointed and I shouldnβt have been because really I should be thankful for 2. Fingers crossed for you and I hope your two make it to good blastocysts! X
Hi rhinocat, Iβve had similar experiences myself and in 4 cycles have only ever scraped together something to transfer (not always a blastocyst) with never anything to freeze. I naively thought on my 1st cycle Iβd get a few blastocysts ending in a pregnancy and some in the freezer. I guess Iβm the unlucky one balancing out the statistics. I hope you have more luck than myself. Come on embryos grow grow grow xx
A 10 cell and 8 cell on day three are exactly where they should be. No reason to think they wonβt make it, hoping they do make it for you!! Only two more days to wait xx
Great a couple are still going strong πͺπΌ are they waiting until day 5 to transfer then? Just a few more days of waiting I am really wishing hard for you xx
Great news with the update Rhinocat! Sounds like you have 2 pretty strong embies there.π€π»π€ Such a nerve racking time.π€―π€― Good luck for day 5 lovely!!πxxx
Hey you only need one remember! I got 7 frosties...im 4 down and still no successful pregnancy. So numbers dont always mean much! Sounds like you have 2 strong contenders there though, wishing you the best xx
Totally understand the anticipation / worry is so overwhelming at this stage!! So pleased to hear that you have 2 going strong though! π Wishing the best of luck over the next couple days. Hold in thereπ€ππ xxxx
Great news that they are still going strong! Hoping the next couple of days fly by for you and that those little embies keep doing what they need to π€xxxx
All three are still growing and two are completely on target, Iβd say thatβs looking pretty bloody great right now!ππ» Got everything crossed for Monday for you π€π»ππ»β€οΈ xxx
(Your pics made me smile... I was actually able to have a chuckle that my one was a π³ last time π... it is a good way to look at it and I didnβt think I would ever be able to smile about it!!)
I know it is a day at a time but you are getting closer to Day 5.
Just wanted to say that I really hope you get great news tomorrow. I've got ET booked for tomorrow morning & getting a bit worried about my little embie's progress over the weekend (also cultured to day 5). Not much to do about it either way, though, so will just have to go with it. I've got everything crossed for you (although I'm sure everything will be fine)! Best wishes!! x
Hi RhinoCat I couldn't scroll past your post and not wish you luck π you never know the 4 cell may catch up yet, but sounds like you have 2 strong front runners there. Wishing you lots of luck for your update tomorrow, take care β€ππ
Hi RhinoLovelyCat. I would never say "safe to say" in this journey, so I would consider 3 in the running at this stage! Understand if you're trying to be conservative and self-preserving, but I will have all 3 in my thoughts for you. xxx Keep us updated. So stressful! xxxx
Thanks emmie , I hate blasto Eve π€―ππ€ͺ Iβm going to find it really hard to get up early and get ready if I donβt know for sure thereβs a reason for it π€ͺ I predict a night of tossing and turning .
Totally agree with everything everyone has said - numbers mean nothing! They only got 6 from my round. We ended up with two (in their words 'dodgy' ones frozen) but, crucially, the one transferred led to a BFP Now 6 weeks.
