Question for those who did IVF

Hi everyone Chat Icon
I post on the infertility board but just noitced this board existed -

My husband and I have had one successful IVF (never did IUI because Dr's suggested going straight for IVF) that has just recently ended in miscarriage at 8.5 weeks - D&C today -

Our next step will be FET - and I know everyone's experiences are different - but can you please share yours with IVF / FET -
-how many were put back
-what was the cell # and quality


I have heard FET is a lot less strenuous physically and emotionally - and honestly looking forward is the only thing that is keeping me sane!!!

TIA for all of your help and your kids are adorable!!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Question for those who did IVF

YES, FET is much esaier on your body mentally and physically. I only had to go to weekly sonos and blood vs. the evry other day thing.

I too had a m/c at 8 weeks from my first IVF cycle, and went on to FET.
I put 2...5 day blasts and now have 15 month old twin boysChat Icon Everyone keeps telling me I had twins to make up for my m/cChat Icon

Thanks for replying Diane Chat Icon

Everyone keeps telling me that I am supposed to have twins and that is what will happen this time - no pressure right?Chat Icon but I think that would definitely be awesome!!!


Is there a reason that your doctor used day 5 instead of day 3 - did you also use day 5 for your fresh??

TIA

Re: Question for those who did IVF

first, sorry for your loss. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon i know how sad miscarriage is.

my first ivf attempt was a bfn. i was certain that it worked, but it didn't. i did a fet next and now i have 7 month old twins!!

fet is much easier. like diane said, much less monitoring, injections and overall strain.

both of my transfers were day 5 transfers because i had to do pgd on my embryos due to genetic blood disorder traits dh and i carry. both times i put back 2 embryos. i don't know specific cell quality of the ones we used.

wishing you much success!! please feel free to fm.

Well, they schedule you to come in for a day 3 trasnfer, but they said they will call you if the embies are still grwoing, so they called me and cancelled and told me to come in on day 5 for my transfer. Actually all 6 of my embryos that re frozen are all 5 day blasts.

Re: Question for those who did IVF

I had three put in at day 3---at first three looked liked they technically took-then one was just a sac.
I have twins. It was my first ivf
