Looking for some experience

Hi, I'm a regular on the IF board. DH and I are on IVF #2 for severe unexplained MFI.  I'm 27 (no known issues) DH is 34.  We've been TTC since 2010, did first IVF in September resulted in a beta of 38, then 2nd beta of 28.

We had our ER on Tuesday, only 5R, 4M, 4Fwith ICSI - embryologist called today:

 Out of the 4 icsi'd 3 made it to today.  He said that they're 2 celled and that I'll be a 3 day transfer tomorrow of the best 2.  He said that they like to see them between 2-4 celled at this point. Also, embryologist said that 1 is lagging a little, and that the other 2 have "a decent amount" of fragmentation.  I asked about freezing the other one and he said if it makes it to freeze, and they ideally like to freeze 2 at a time but I could if I wanted.  I said what if I wanted to transfer all three if they don't look good, and he said we could talk about it tomorrow and sign consents.  Ugh. What the....

Re: Looking for some experience

  • I'm very sorry for your struggles. All of this must be very difficult for you and YH. :(

    You will receive a better response on the IF board with this post since the purpose of this board is not to seek experience about a cycle without already bei
