Update #2: PGS Biopsy update

I have finally been able to reach the lab to check on my embies for 5/6 day biopsy for the remaining embies.

From the original 15 that were fertilized, only 5 made it to blast and could be biopsied... argh......

I am so disappointed as we had 5 last time and they all failed PGD. I am terrified that we are back to where we started and at the end of our road.

PGD results could be in as early as tomorrow, I need to wait for the RE to call me, but not really sure when that will be.

Indifferent

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!

  • I agree with the PP, 5 gives you great odds and with what they learned from your protocol from the first failed cycle it seems like you're already in a different place, obviously your body has already reacted differently with over double the amount at ER so there's no reason not to be hopeful that this time will be a-ok! I know the wait super sucks though and the fear for everyone that has to repeat this experience can feel insurmountable. Take care of yourself and try to stay distracted.
