Two Early Blastocysts

Hey everyone,

Just feeling broken by this all. We did our

egg retreival on 1/31 and retrieved 4 eggs, 3 of which were mature. All fertilized with ICSI, all made it to day 3. I received a phone call today on day 5 from the embryologist saying that we lost one and the other two are in early blastocyst stage.

They are going to give them the night to see change otherwise we are out. She said it’s not completely uncommon to see growth on Day 6, but my hopes are low at this point.

Background: We were going to do PGS testing with a frozen transfer. I have Diminished Ovarian Reserve and there is no male factor issues. I’m 34, husband 33.

Has anyone ever seen a big growth changes from day 5 to 6 embryos?

Thanks everyone...

UPDATE 2/6: Just received a call that one embryo made it!!!!!! It’s a hatched, 6bb quality embryo which the embryologist was very happy with. Now we wait until the end of next week for PGS testing to come back.

Thank you all for sharing your stories.💛

UPDATE 2/17: Testing came back as abnormal. Missing or duplicate Chromosomes 7 11 21💔
