Anyone have success with 3 day fresh transfer?

Question

Hi ladies. Having a meltdown over here. Just heard back from the embryologist that of my 15 eggs retrieved, 10 were mature and 6 fertilized. Feeling so sad about how many are lost already and it’s only day 1. The embryologist told me that I will be having a 3 day transfer and I’m mildly freaking out. Seems like everyone on here has 5 day transfers...

Answer

Our IVF cycle we had five eggs retrieved, four were mature and only two fertilized. I was devastated. Our insurance didn’t cover fertility treatment so we invested a lot of money, time and emotions into this and would never be able to do it again. We transferred both our embryos on day 3 and I am now 17 weeks pregnant with twins. Both of our baby girls implanted. I know it’s so hard, but from the moment they transferred the embryos I remained positive and believed the Lord would bless us with our dream. I truly consider our babies miracle babies because everything looked gloomy and they still hung in there. Good luck to you!! ❤️

Answer

Focus on the positive—you have six embryos!! Even if a day 3 transfer doesn’t work this time, it sounds like you had a good response to the stims. I hope everybody keeps growing!!

Answer

Try to think of it like an upside down pyramid.  I had 19 retrieved, 11 mature, 6 fertilized and have 4 frozen at blastocyst stage. It is very common to continue to loose about half each stage. If I did PGS testing at this point I could end up with none or 1 normal embryos. As for the transfer I can't speak to that but obviously going to do a later day transfer. I think it is 7.

Hi babe! Congrats! You got through a big part! Be proud of yourself! The whole ivf process is so scary and confusing! I feel like most of the time is spent worrying if everything is going to be ok and I think we all have been there!! I know it’s hard but don’t get discouraged! I feel like I didn’t realize how drastically the numbers drop until I experienced it but I have to say don’t lose hope! I had 9 eggs retrieved and only 6 were mature and of those 6 only 4 fertilized. I was so worried since typically they aim for half to make it but all 4 made it to blast! (my clinic only does frozen transfers so they had to make it to day 5 and freeze) it was so stressful not knowing!!! Sending you hugs and good luck!!!!💞💞💞💞💞

Answer

It is possible to ask them to let some go to 5 days?
