Donor eggs

Hi Everyone, looking for a bit of advice. We are using donor eggs with my husbands sperm, they have just called to say they have injected 9 eggs, is this good? I don't know whether I should be happy, trying not to stress, they only got injected today. Can anyone offer advice? Thank you.

in the round which we have just had with DE, there were 10 eggs, 9 fertilised, and we ended up with two embryos/ blastocysts . One we transferred and one that went for freezing.

we were very fortunate and had 11 making it to blastocyst stage, 9 seems like a good number, good luck

That's a good number. We had 13 eggs injected, 12 fertilised and 11 developed into blastocysts. There's a lot of luck involved though, so it's difficult to say. I'd say 9 is a fairly decent number though. Now it's down to the egg and sperm quality. Good luck! X

I think they're good numbers. When we first moved to DE I imagined getting crazy high numbers and will admit at first I wasn't sure how I felt about our numbers, in some ways I was disappointed but then I remembered that it was a lot better than I ever did with all my OE collections added together and that they'd give us a few chances with better quality eggs.First donor- 14 eggs, 11 fertilised, 5 blastocysts

Second donor- 13 eggs, 9 fertilised, 5 blastocysts, 4 tested normal.

Wishing you all the luck in moving forward XX

We got 8 eggs, 4 fertilised and got two blasts. I was quite upset when I heard only half fertilised, thought we'd get bigger numbers but really the results were still amazing compared to our OE cycle. wishing you all the best ❤️ xxxx
