I am so nervous! We only have 2 embies on ice and they are being defrosted tomorrow, an hour before my scheduled transfer. I'm so afraid they wont make it. They were frozen on day 3 and they doctors didn't want to take a chance for them to die so we aren't defrosting early to see if they get to day 5. Anyone else been a simular situation? All my hope is riding on these 2 babies.....

well, things did not go well yesterday.....while i was there waiting for my transfer, my doctor called to speak with me, i knew that couldn't be good. apprently he was at another office and wanted to tell me himself. one of the embyros died after they defrosted them and the other one went down to 2 cells. my doc said that there was a 90% chance that the other now 2-cell embyro wouldnt make it, but they were going to see if it would make it to day 5, which would be tomorrow. so i have to stay with all the meds and they are going to call me thursday morning to let me know if i should come in for a transfer or not. the doctor also told me that there may be some chromosonal issues with my DH's sperm so we may be at the end of that path.
i am so sad, i feel so empty, i have been staring at those pictures since the end of june, they are my babies, and one of them is gone, and the other doesnt look like it will make it.
why is this so hard? why do we put ourselves through all of this????

What a difficult time for you and your DH. Many thought and prayers are headed your way. I understand completely how awful it is to have to wait to hear the news about the condition of your embyro(s). We only retrieved 5, 3 fertilized and half of those were predicted to suffer from a terminal genetic disorder. We did not know until I was ready to be wheeled in to do the transfer if any would be available. It was awful. I hope things are better for you. We are thinking of you!
