3BB success stories please?xx

We have transfer today into our surrogate... I was shocked yesterday when the embryologist called to book our time, to hear that it’s a 3BB and not a 4BB as I had thought. It’s a day 5 blast.

Just hoping someone can tell me something positive about their 3BB! Xx

Not had this, but 3 is still considered fair quality - perfectly viable🤞❤🥰

Our 4AA embryo failed to implant, our 4AB ended in a MMC at 9 weeks and our ‘worst’ quality 3BC (5 day blast) which is a slightly lower grade than yours, is now our little boy. It’s so hard not to think about grades but i always say if the embryo is good enough to freeze then it’s good enough to become your miracle 🤞🏼 x

Totally agree with you, good enough to freeze, always a chance! I am transferring either a 3BC or 3bb in january hopefully, can i ask with your little boy did they assist hatch before transfer with being a 3 expansion, i wasn't sure what to do? x

Hey. They didn’t assist hatch, no. When they defrosted the embryo (Louie!) it compacted and started to expand nicely so I’m assuming there was no need to. Wishing you every success with your next transfer xx

Thank you so much. Merry Christmas.. ( cute name Louie) x

Sending all my prayers 💐 !! So exited for you xx

Not really a success story but until now my 2cc was the only one that lasted the longest xx

Sometimes different embryologists will be stricter so I’ve had mine put back a stage before.

I transferred a 3/4bb day 6 abs it stuck and is one half of my twins.

I’m having a boy and a girl - the doctors suspect the girl is the day 6 bb embryo as some studies indicate that girl embryos can be slower than boy ones and she has been smaller/slower than her brother the whole pregnancy

My 5 day 2BB embryo is now a 21 month old little girl 👧- so there is definitely a good chance for you as yours is 3. Good luck 🤞 xxx

Hey did you find out the sex of your baby? xx

Anipea profile image
Anipea in reply to sunset212

We haven't found out yet but it's highly likely to be a girl as my family has a history of only producing girls xx

sunset212 in reply to Anipea

Aw really, ours is the opposite mostly boys lol. How long have you got until you know? All the best and hope you've had a good Christmas x

Anipea in reply to sunset212

We have a scan soon so I'll let you know. This is our second IVF baby. Our first was top quality and was a girl so I doubt embryo quality has anything to do with gender. Thank you ☺️ yes merry Christmas to you too xx

Anipea in reply to Anipea

We are having a boy!! Maybe embryo quality is linked to gender after all!!

I have just had a frozen 4bb transferred and currently in my 2ww.

I also have a day 6 frozen which is graded 3bb.

(Both are classed as good quality)

I wouldn't look to much at the grade.. have seen some people with 5/6aa blastocysts transfers and had a negative test and had positives with their lower grade

I have my fingers crossed for you 🤞✨

Hi , how did your embryo transfers go with either your 4BB or day 6 3BB? xx

Orla9298 profile image
Orla9298

Thank you all, this is all what i needed to hear! We had a really blip at the clinic where my 100% perfectly thawed embie almost had to be refrozen and abandoned (honestly why does it always happen to me!) because the clinic were saying some important forms were missing for the surrogacy that her husband needed to complete and there was no way he could travel to us. But after consulting with the hfea disaster was averted.

One very pretty embryo transferred ❤️ and so begins the 2ww 🤞🏼🍀

I had a positive c grade who is nearly 4 and full of beans , I don’t think the grading really matters too much ( my opinion ) xx
