I transferred 2 8 cell a embryos via FET yesterday. I did a single embryo transfer with our DD. I am curious to hear about your embryos? Love success stories!
We transferred 4 embryos - 2 grade one and 2 grade two. They were a 7, 6 and two 5 cells. I honestly had no hope that any would take, but 3 did and 2 made it to the end. We had transferred 7 embryos in other IVFs prior to that and nothing ever took.
It sounds like you have a very good chance.
GL!
2 chem preg, 4 failed IUIs, 2 canc IVFs, 2 BFN IVFs, IVF #5 = BFP!!! 3/23 Beta #1 @ 17dpo = 913, Beta #2 @ 19dpo = 1724, Beta #3 @ 21 dpo = 3240 First u/s 3/29 @ 5 weeks 2 days - 3 sacs
6 weeks 3 days - 3 heartbeats
8 Weeks - Lost Baby C, Babies A and B going strong
It was our first FET cycle. We transfered three 5 day blasts. Two were good quality and one was poor quality. The RE said I had a 3% chance of triplets.
we did a 3DT with 3 embies. 2 were graded near perfect and the third was not bad, but not perfect either (i can't remember the grades they gave them) We froze another 3 suprisingly. It was a fresh transfer and we have b/g twins
We transferred 3 embryos- 8 cell, 7 cell, 6 cell. Not sure of the grades, but there was some fragmentation. Of the three- 2 took. We did a 3 day transfer.
For our successful cycle, we transferred 1 8 cell and 1 7 cell embryo on day 3, both A/B quality. We know that they both took because we had the boys' zygosity test done and they are definitely fraternal.
We transferred two embryos (don't recall the grade) and have fraternal boys on the way. I do recall my clinic has a very strict guideline for transferring, so they have to be great quality.

We transferred two 5 day blasts. Can't remember the exact cell quality but one was perfect and the other was 6 hours right behind, in perfect growing condition. 1st fresh cycle worked.
1st IVF and only had 2 embryos at the day of transfer. They didn't give me a cell count, but 1 was a grade C (average) and 1 was grade D (below average). They only gave me a 10% change of getting PG and less than 1% that it would be twins, so we put both back at a 3dt.
Ended up PG, RE was surprised but he is always pleased when that happens and the odds are against us. He was flabergasted when the 7w u/s should twins. He kept looking at my chart and the grades of both embryos to make sure he had read it right.
My case proves anything can happen no matter what the grades of the embryos are. Just keep your chin up and stay as stress free as possible during the next 2 weeks. Put your feet up and do nothing but relax.
Good luck

We did a FET with eggs from a frozen donor egg bank. We transferred two day 5 blasts, although one was an 'early' day 5 blast, so not quite as developed as the other. My RE doesn't give many details on embryos for some reason, but that is what he said.
Wow! I can't believe how many of you remember every last detail of your IVFs. All I remember is that we transferred 2 and they both took. I can't remember what day the transfer was or how many cells each had. Let's hope I'm better at remembering the kids' milestones haha.
I have 13 embryos on ice and DH is adamant on using all of them. Looks like I may end up with A LOT of kids.
Good luck with your transfer! You'll be in my thoughts.

IVF#1, fresh cycle, transferred an excellent 8 cell and a very good 7 cell, and DD is now 2.
IVF#3, fresh cycle, transferred 2 perfect 8 cells, and I'm 33 weeks with twin girls!

i had a 3dt of (2) 8-cell grade A (perfect) embryos, and i have boy/girl twins.
GL!
I transferred 3 blasts for IVF #3. 1 was BA quality, 1 was BB, 1 was a morula. 3 implanted but the 3rd didin't make it. I have twin boys.
We transferred two embryos (don't recall the grade) and have fraternal boys on the way. I do recall my clinic has a very strict guideline for transferring, so they have to be great quality.

See my siggie for embies transferred.
FWIW, all of the embies we transferred were "perfect" - for whatever reason we had to transfer 9 embies to get 2 babies.
4 Fresh IVF cycles + 1 FET where embies didn't survive the thaw = 2 perfect little men!
sFET 11/9/11 - Beta 11/18 BFP!
This is me exactly!
This, except I don't know the genders of the babies yet!

We transferred 1 8-cell and 1 9-cell on a fresh cycle 3dt. Both stuck!
