Hi.

If i were you i would also feel that because had 24 eggs would expect more embryos but that depends on your treatment.For example i had ICSI and had 18eggs, 17 were mature and 12 were fertilised.

You might have 24 eggs but how many were mature???This if you had ICSI as well.On ICSI there are 5% chance of eggs beeing damaged.

Other thing:i remember one case where a lady also had 24 or 22 eggs and ZERO were fertilised!!! So if you've got 4 that is better then nothing.

Good luck.wish you a BFP

Thanks for responding, I just spoke with the re again, 14 were mature, and they did icsi on all of them (14) of that 4 are embroys. I had to take a breathe and realize that I am thankful for the four, b/c I only want to put 3 back anyway so I am happy and thankful for that. I will know in the morning the cell division.
