Went today and was told they aren't developing well, that they are only 4 cells. Advised to defrost last 3 and see how this three do. Implant the best and pray
Next steps are to do more tests in sperm fragmentation
Not really sure what to think now
Gutted
Praying for a miracle between now and tomorrow at 0830am
Sorry you didn't get the news you wanted but .... And it's a big BUT ... You are still in the game! Keeping fingers crossed for you and your little ones x
The three they defrosted on Thursday are still alive but really slow.
They are keeping them another 48 hours to see what happens but said more for protocol than anything else.
The three defrosted yesterday are all OK, there is one really poor and two OK.
The two that are OK have 7-8 cells which is fine for the stage they are at but it ask depends how they carry on developing, if they carry on.
They said it's a B and a C at the moment.
They gave us a 30% chance.
They have only put those 2 back as the third one would not serve any purpose.
He said it's not impossible and that today's are better than yesterday's which is something.
I don't know how I feel. In kind of resigned to it now.
I feel that at least if they do more testing and can resolve the development issues for another try, are willing to give it another try, and the extraction is under anaesthetic then I can deal with it.
I know I sound pessimistic but I need to be realistic with what we have, I don't have a crystal ball to see how they are in the next 24 hoursπ
We are hoping and prayingππ»ππ£πππ»ππ£πππ»
Hubby is amazing, I couldn't love anyone anymore than I love him. He's everything to me, together we can get through this either way

Sounds good and hopefully they will keep going. It only takes one xxx
7-8 cells at day 3 sounds good. And I had 3 grade 2's and 3's make it to expanded blastocyst out of 4. The 30% is just the background stats for day 3 transfer. Think you have as much right to be optimistic as anybody. Don't give up yet! Best wishes for your 2ww xxx
Aaah thanks honey, just wish I had a crystal ball not to look tomorrow to see if they continue developing or not
Guess we all do
Big hugs and thanks for your words they mean allot x
Thanks button how's things with you

Oh dear
Not pleasant is it. Are you drinking and eating enough?
I'm just chilling today, had period type tummy all week with the progesterone so just trying to take everything easy and have faith.
Yesterday didn't believe we'd have anything to implant so one step at a time eh
When is your otd?
β’ in reply to
Yes drinking and eating well. The dizzy spells come and go.
I have slept loads today. My OTD is the 4th (next Fri) me and hubby have took the day of so either way we can get our heads round it. Wishing and hoping ππΌππΌ

Aaah that's good, our otd isn't till the 15th. It's done on another island so needs a short flight.
If the same happens as last time my period came bang on day 30 of my cycle. Otd is day 38.
15 march
I'm trying to be realistic but it's hard not to be hopeful too.
Thinking positive maybe thoughts
Fingers and toes crossed all your symptoms lead to a bfp and a healthy pregnancy to follow honey xx
Aw thanks and you too. This is my first try using icsi, I am staying positive by thinking it only takes one, I had two egg retrieved and only one fertilised so no frozen ones. Think it's a bit of a lottery x
Thinking about you and keeping everything crossed xxxx
