How many of you are pregnant with only 1 embie transferred?

Post by vicky77 »

Hi girls, sorry to crash in this side of the forum, obviously I am not pregnant....yet :wink: .
I have a question for you, this cycle was not very good, I only had 4 follicles, from there they retrieved 3 eggs and only 1 fertilized. Now my ET is going to be on Monday 18, but I am a little nervous, I was actually expecting to have 3 embies transferred this cycle, and I am only having one. How many of you are pregnant after only transferring one embie??
Your answers will be greatly appreciated!!!!!

Vicky,

Hey! My long lost April buddy. I've been wondering how you are doing. I have to say I got pregnant on my WORST cycle when I only had 2 4 celled embies transferred on day 3. That is pretty poor quality, but we had an amazing baby from it. Last cycle I had 6 transferred and nothing. It really depends on the embie and I'm a firm beleiver in quality or quantity. Lasat year someone had a post of encouragement when they also only had one embie and got pregnant. Search under "it only takes one" I think that was the heading. There are so many women with 1 embie that get pregnant. Don't loose hope in the little guy.

I jsut had transfer yesterday. You're only 3 days behind me. Sending you enomous sticky vibes and babydust. BTW, if they do assisted hatching, it is also increased possibility of twinning ;)

Hi,
Just wanted to tell you it only takes one. I went through my first IVF cycle and had 10 eggs collected.Out of those 10 only 3 fertilized.Out of the 3 one stood out to be perfect on day three.We transfered the one and I'm now 10 weeks pregnant.It really can happen with only one. I almost transfered two because of the "chances" of only one sticking but I knew I did not want twins. I don't think it matters "how many" you transfer but whether the embie is of good quality and your body wants to let it grow.That's my thoughts anyway. I hope this helps and gives you hope.It really does only take one.
Best of Luck!

My dear friend! I am so sorry I have missed so much! I am sorry to hear about your troubles, but I too have good news for you. I had 8 follies which yeiled 5 eggs. Only one egg made it to fertilization. That egg was transfered 30 hours after fert. and I was told there was little chance. Low and behold, Makayla is a survivor. As you noticed she arrived last Tuesday and she is my miracle. God has plans for all of us, don't lose hope. I am praying hard for you!

Dear Vicki,

Hallo there - incidentally this is my first post, (I have been 'lurking' for quite a while though :oops: )

I have had 3 IVF/ICSI cyles. With our last cycle I only had 3 eggs, 2 fertilized and we had only ONE 6-day blastocyst to put back and I am pregnant!

Keep your hopes up and stay positive!!!

Kind regards

Racheal......my very loyal friend!!!, first of all congrats about the arrival of Makayla!!!!(I PM'ed you when she was born, hope you received it :wink: ). Second of all, your story gives me tons of hope!!!!!!!!!!!!, I am sure my embie will be a fighter just like Makayla!!!!!!. How are you doing????

Iccn.......thank you for writing your first post to help me out!!!, it was really important to me, so I greatly appreciate it!!!!!, congratulations on your pregnancy!!!!!!!!

I had ET today, we transferred our little fighter, I am actually very happy, since I was afraid of not making it to ET, but now that it's done and the baby is inside of mommy I am sure he/she will like it here for the next 9 months

:wink:

Hi Vicky. Good to hear from you. I remember you from Nov cycle buddies. Just to let you know that i only had 1 embie to transfer after 5 days and with screening. I was very disapointed and know how you feel. However i am 34 weeks pregnant and believe that it only takes one little fighter. I will be thinking of you on the 29th and will be sending you lots of sticky dust you deserve it so much.
