FET ladies

in Success after IF

We are gearing up for a FET in September.  We have 3 snowbabies and plan on putting in 2 as long as they make the thaw.  How many did you transfer and what grade were they?  What were your results?

I am just curious.  I know the success rates are lower and after 4 IVF's to get my son, I am not very optimistic...more of a revere psych thing.  However when I got pregnant with Luke we put in a 7 cell grade A and 6 cell grade A and we have a 7,6 and 6 all grade A frozen. I want it to work so bad but I don't wanna get my hopes up. Thanks for indulging me!

    GL!! We did a FET. We had 11 frosties (6 were frozen on Day 1 and 5 on Day 3). We lost all 6 of the Day 1's (which really doesn't surprise me) and of the other 5, we transfered the 2 best. They were both 5 day blasts and graded AA. My singleton is in my siggy. I was so sure that a FET wouldn't work based on the lower success rates but they CAN work. I am proof of that. GL!!

    We had three frozen. Two survived the thaw. I don't know exactly how they were graded. I just know that our clinic only freezes embies that are still really good quality on day 6. Both took and we have Mason and Wyatt!

    We did 2 FET rounds back to back. Single transfers both times. First transfer was a 6-day AA. BFN

    Second transfer was a 6-day BA. BFP.

    So the lower quality embie is my growing monkey right now. You just never know, and it really only takes one.

    My first FET in May, I transferred 2 blasts... grades 5AA and 6AA(hatched).  I got a BFP but had an early miscarriage at 5 weeks.  I just had my 2nd FET yesterday and am in the waiting game.  This time I transferred a 5AB and a 6AA(also hatched).  Waiting to see.....

     Best of luck to you!

    We had 4 frozen on day 1 and all 4 survived the thaw. Once they were thawed we let them get to 3d.  We transferred 3 and all 3 took (very rare for a FET).  They were an 8, 7, & 6 cell.

    With the first clinic we went to, after our fresh cycle we had 14 frozen at day 3, they were 6, 7, and 8 cell, grade A, B and C (not sure how many of each) on 9/29/06.

    We moved and at the new clinic, the RE decided to defrost all 14 and transfered the 2 best survivors, and culture the remaining to 5 day to freeze again.  This resulted in our twins (fraternal) I am not sure of the quality of the embryos but .the doc did say they both had minor fragmenting but looked good

    the initial thaw resulted in the loss of 8 snowbabies, 2 were transfered and 4 were cultured to blast and frozen,(and adopted out to another family)

    That is amazing!  Congrats to you!  And GL!  Your story and history are truly inspiring!
