Well we got to the clinic and it was pretty good news! We'd had three mature eggs collected, all three fertilized normally, and today there were two good quality blastocysts! And the third is still hanging in there, so may end up as a day 6 blast or late 5 day blast, we don't know.
Our doctor insisted that we only transfer one, however. I sort of thought that he would want to transfer all if we had them. But he said since I was just pregnant less than three months ago, and have no implantation problems, since our first ever blast transfer was a BFP, that he was scared of a twin pregnancy for me. He was especially scared that if one's chromosomes were abnormal, like last time, that I could have another later miscarriage it could endanger the other baby, etc.
This is my first fresh transfer and my third transfer all in all. I do feel much more relaxed about it. I hope everyone is having an okay day, and all the hugs in the world to you if it's a hard one xoxoxoxo

So sorry for your loss, wishing you the best with this embryo hope it finds a nice home for the next 8 months 😁 Also I have heard you are especially extra fertile following a miscarriage. Xx
That's a fantastic result LuxFleur, well done! Hoping for a good result for you here. Can I ask (other might have a view here too) - do doctors always put the best quality blast back, in situations where there are 2? Would they ever but a good but not great one back as a fresh transfer, and freeze the second, on the grounds that the not so great one wouldn't be likely to survive a thaw whereas the top quality would?) xx
Good luck LuxFleur ! I too had a transfer yesterday! Our second FET after our first resulted in a BFP and miscarriage just under 3 months ago so keeping everything crossed for us both 🤞🏽X
Thanks! I'm going to give it the full two weeks. I just want no doubt or anxiety over results as much as possible. I was an obsessive tester early on in my fertility journey, and now I don't ever do home tests. xo
