Infertility

3 Day Frozen Embroyos

Hey ladies,

So after my first fresh IVF cycle I ended up with an early miscarriage I'm now on target for a January FET transfer. I have 5 frozen embroyos but to my surprise I found out that they were frozen on Day 3.

Does anyone have any experience with day 3 snowflakes??

  • I don't have any experience or advice for you but just want to wish you the best of luck.
    TTC for Baby #1 for 3 years. After 2 failed IUI's & IVFs, God blessed us with our miracle :).  FET 12/17/15 (transferred 2 embryos at 5days). First Beta 12/29/15 = 354. Second Beta 12/31/15 = 694. Third Beta 1/7/16 = 6,695.  Finally heard his heartbeat (126)  on 1/14/16 @ our 1st US.  2nd US on 1/21/16, HR was 159.  The most beautiful sound ever :)

  • I also don't with day 3 freezing. I transfered 2 fresh on day 3 on my first round, but they pushed the other two to day 5 and froze then. I am curious why they chose to freeze on day 3 instead of pushing to day 5. Might have been to make sure you had something to freeze, but I'd definitely ask to the rationale behind it. 

    Hopefully someone else has similar experience to shed some light.

    best of luck to you in January... coming up quick!
