Day 5 PGS biopsy update
Roxie5739

in Infertility
I just got some news on my embies. Of the 15 that fertilized, 5 were able to be biopsied today (day 5) and they expect a few more tomorrow. Fx we get around 8 that can get to PGS.
This means that 5 got to blast so they could be biopsied - so that is good. My only concern is that the numbers drop so much at each step, and I need numbers on my side to at least get 1-3 that pass PGS this time, as there is always a risk that we could lose some at thaw for the FET.
I hate the IVF numbers game. I would love all your T&Ps for my little embies to help a good number to get through to tomorrow.
Multiple ectopics, 2 failed IVF's
IVF #1: Did not get to ET, embies all failed PGD (major chromosomal defects)
IVF #2: We have 2 chromosomally perfect embies as a result of PGD (Boy/Girl) 1 failed the thaw (Girl) Transferred 1, yet ended as a c/p
Thought it was the end of our TTC Journey 6/20/2012
SHOCK BFP 9/28/2012: IT'S A BOY! and everything is normal !!!!!!
Little A born 38w 2d on 05/23/13 and is a true miracle for this IF Vet!
