I heard a few weeks ago on a 'ivf' tele programme the same question asked and the consultant said:
At age 20 - 25 % of embryoes are abnormal and will not implant
at age 30 - 50 %
at age 40 - 80 %

so thats why the more eggs they get leads to more embryoes which at least gives the embryologists some ...

I went through all the same feelings and emotions about guilt, especially when I needed the support from this site when I already had my precious first baby. It really was a lot easier the second time as you have the thing you've been wishing so hard for already. Luckily it worked second time again ...

hi, I'm glad you got the weaning book too - I found it invaluable and followed it to the letter. My eldest, Benjamin is nearly 3 and he is a fantastic eater, I put it all down to the book ! my youngest, Thomas is nearly 4 mths and I'm following ginas routines again. Theres always something - a cold ...

hi, i know this string was posted a while ago, but I just had to say something about Gina and her methods.
I am a complete gina fan - both my 2yr 9mth old and 4 mth old (both ivf babies) are 'contented babies'.
Ginas books get a huge amount of stick - mostly by people who have never read the books ...

fantastic and wow, fast and very painful i imagine !
it really is the moment we've been waiting for when our precious baby(s) enter this world - i cried buckets after both of mine and it wasn't just hormones.
Don't worry about them bottle feeding - its great if they'll do both and they will if ...

oh brilliant - wow at last the end is in sight - how exciting. good luck with the vaginal delivery really hope it all goes quickly and as smoothly and painlessly as possible but don't stress about a c section if it comes to it - i've had two now, 1 emergency, 1 planned and its just as wonderful when ...

I really hope everythings going ok. i can't believe they want to monitor you daily yet won't just get the babies out of there NOW !! they are obviously big enough and I ...

HIYA, Kelly - congratulations - you beat me !!! Sounds like your labour went perfectly and hopefully Hannah is recovering nicely after the shoulder incident. Sue, i really hope you don't have to wait much longer - 1 baby was enough of a struggle to carry around, never mind 2 and 2 big ones at that ...

Hiya, sorry again not to of been on for ages again. Had my final check yesterday and am booked in for the 30th. I go in to hospital on the monday evening and baby Thomas is due to see the bright lights of the theatre a few minutes after 08.30. After saying he'd be about 3kg (6.5lb) the drs now ...

So so sorry. We've just been sooooo busy - we are in the middle of our high season and have so much work to do but also i'm absolutely exhausted at the end of the day and just havn't had the strength to get on line. I'm huge !!! ohh and the heat - its been 37 c here for weeks now and i'm suffering ...

Its great to come on and see that everyones still doing brilliantly. Pregnancy brain really does exist and I think it kind of never goes away - it does get better after the baby comes but now the second ones on its way I'm sure I'm far worse than the first time.
Wow 4D scans sound fantastic - I ...

Hi Michelle and everyone else. You arn't mad at all. After our first baby through icsi, I knew I wanted more and we never even discussed contraception - we had tried for a baby for 8 yrs no sucess so the likely hood of conceiving naturally was practically non existant so we just ENJOYED THE SEX ...
