Infertility

our other embies didn't make it

we found out this morning only one of our three embies that were under observation made it to blast stage and that one wasn't good enough to make it to freeze.

So the LO's that were transferred are our only hope. The embryologist assured us that this was good news for a 3dt, because it shows we put the best two back.

I'm disappointed, but keeping my fingers crossed. Congrats to all of the great cycle news to everyone this weekend. I'm super happy for you guys! 

Re: our other embies didn't make it

  • Well, we'll just hope that the two in you are rockstars!

    Didn't LCB end up with none to freeze this cycle, or am I smoking crack?  If so, they sure did put back the best two for her!  :)

    GL!  Can't wait for your beta!


    After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!

  • Sorry you don't have any left to freeze. That happened to us, too, and it is scary knowing that you have no other "back-up plan" than to cycle all over again.

    cute LO's! I hope that the end result of having none left to freeze looks something like this picture too! Smile

  • Ditto what everyone else said and try not to be too disappointed. I was told by more than 1 RE that only about 30% of women have embies that make it to freeze. (Many clinics have pretty strict rules on the quality they will freeze.) I have had 4 cycle with nothing left to freeze-ever. They do better inside of you than in the lab :)

    Sending you tons of positive vibes and good luck!

    We were told this same thing, and we didn't have anything to freeze either.  Obviously, not having any to freeze is far more common than having some.  It's ok though, the best ones are with you, and that's all that matters!!!  Good luck!

  • Sorry the others didn't make it - but I think it's awesome that you put the best two back.  PPV!

  • Try not to worry too much Niki.  I had 5 total, 2 put back, 3 remaining.  When those 3 didn't make it to freeze I was very upset, but 1 of the 2 stuck.  I'm hoping for the same for you!!
