Got a call from my clinic, the embryologist told me that 4 eggs were fertilised and 1 egg is not accepting the sperm I didn’t get that and said that the Doctor can explain that to us😵‍💫did this happened to anyone ??

We have to wait for another four days to see how many will make it to blastocysts 🤔

Congrats on the high fertilisation rates.

Its quite common for not all the eggs to fertilise, sometimes the sperm doesn't make it, sometimes chromosomally something isn't right and sometimes the eggs aren't mature. To have 4 out of 5 fertilise is a really good rate (one round I had 2 out of 9 fertilise!) so I wouldn't worry about the 5th one at all. Good luck for your next call! x

That’s a really good fertilisation result! Just think that 5th egg wasn’t meant to be you know. The sperm or the egg wasn’t of good quality. Good luck with your 4 growing 🤞🏼💕
