Day 3 embryo success

This isn’t a question but a success story to give some hope!

I am 13 weeks pregnant with a day 3 embryo that was my only embryo from the round.

I have tried for 5years and had 2 previous rounds that failed with nothing to freeze but one each time to transfer that didn’t stick, so when I got the call that only one embryo was looking ok I assumed this round would be the same outcome. In the rounds I always responded well and collected 19,7 and 13 eggs so always ending up with only 1 was a huge drop and dissapointment each time. As we only had one our clinic decided to transfer on day 3 this time. To my absolute shock it stuck. I scrolled the internet for success stories of day 3 embryos in my 2WW and also I never believed it that my one and only embryo would be the one, but it really sometimes only takes one.

When I found out I was pregnant I decided if I get to 12 weeks I wanted to put my success story in forums to give others some hope for those day 3s!! And also sometimes you really do only need one so keep going warriors! ✨

congratulations! Your story is so similar to mine - only difference really is you got a lot more eggs than I did, I only ever got about 4. The day 3 embryo was the last ditch attempt.

My little day 3 embaby is now 11 months old. Good luck, hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly!

Thanks for sharing your story. Do you think you did anything different in your daily routines?

I did walk everyday and had a smoothie everyday which was spinach, blueberries, celery, 2 Brazil nuts chia seeds and cows milk. My progesterone dose was also high as I was having monitored so it could be worth asking your clinic to monitor your levels and your dose. Good luck x

Thanks for telling more about your journey. Unfortunately, our clinic did never do any blood tests on me and they will never do that. I am living in the Netherlands, worse health standards than what you can find in Africa.
