Lou - I don't buy the percentage thing too much, I have seen girls with perfect blasts get BFN and girls with 5 cell - 3 day embryos with fragmentation get pregnant. It is a bit science but a bit luck. My two cents is I would do the same as you did on your BFP cycle, transfer all you can comfortable do on day 3 and I am praying for your BFP!
Lou - i know how you feel. believe me i do. In most of my cycles I was lucky to have more then 3 eggs. I hated the wait to find out if they were mature and if they would fertilize. Then to find out if they would even make it to day 3. Know that you have a lot of gals rooting for you and those embies.

lou-keep the pma. i wish i had tons to send your way. remember it only takes one. and am praying for you and all the best. try to relax some. hard to do but you need it before the transfer.
All my thoughts are with you.....it is time for the spermies to do their thing!! Keep your thoughts as positive as you can. This can all work...this will work....this can work....this will work....

course there is still hope, You know there are a lot of stories of women only having one and getting preggo. I just saw a little 5 month old last week that was conceived that way. my friend had 5 retrieved only 1 fertilized, 1 transferred on day 3 and now he is 5 months old.
