Any success stories out there??

Post by kkaplan »

This is my 2nd IVF attempt. My first one I has 2 5day blasts and got pregnant with one. I then miscarried at 6 weeks. :cry: Now, I just finished my 2nd IVF cycle and transferred 4 embryos. 2 (6cell) and 2 (5 cell). MY RE said they were both grade A though and no fragmentation. He suggested all 4 though, as he prefers to have them at 8 cells. I now have none left over and would hate to have to do a third try. Has anyone had success with embryos less than 8 cells??? I go in tomm. for my Beta and I am a nervous wreak!!!!

This is my first IVF cycle. They tranferred one 8 cell and three 6 cell. They were going to do 3 initially but for the same reason as you not having more 8 cell embryos, they devided to transfer 4. I'm sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Did you or do you have any type of pregnancy symptoms now or before when you got pregnant? I had my transfer on 3/3 with day 3 day embryos.

Well...I had my first beta yesterday and I am PREGNANT!! I couldn't believe it!! I really was doubtful as I really didn't have any symtoms. However, the night before I went in I had some pretty bad cramping, so I thought my period was for sure coming. Anyway..it didn't and my first beta number was 148. I go back friday for another beta to make sure the numbers keep going up. I now feel unbelievably tired though! I can barely stay awake, and kind of neuseous. When is your first beta? I will keep my fingers crossed!!!!! See..low cell embies can work!! :lol:
