Just got a call from our RE's office. No embies made it to freeze. I'm heartbroken. Please dear God let these two embryos that already were transferred grow into babies! The thought of doing this again if this cycle isn't successful is too much to bear. Not only emotionally but financially we would have to drop another $10-$11,000 for another donor/screening/and meds. This is after we just paid over $35000 for this last cycle (we are in a shared risk, so we technically get 3 frozen/3 fresh tries) all OOP. I know they told me that the embies that didn't make it have no indication on how healthy the ones they transferred are....but I can't help but wonder. I'm just so overwhelmed but trying not to get too upset just yet.

***PAIF/SAIF always welcome***
Baby boy Henry born 2015.
Expecting our capstone baby (boy) early March 2018.
I am so sorry to hear this, but know this is no indication of the embies you have growing now. I had the same thing happen to me, and I have to say I was beside myself with worry.
We had 28 retrieved and 19 mature, 2 transferred on day 3 and nothing to freeze. I was SO sick worrying about the money we paid, nothing left to freeze, etc.
I have to say the result of those 2 that were transferred is sleeping right now....10 months later. We got lucky and 1 stuck and we have the most amazing little one from it. I love her and feel like the baby I was meant to have I have today.
We are starting the process over again for LO #3 soon and I have to remind myself that what is meant to be will be.
Good luck & grow babies grow
