I'm doing my last FET cycle with my remaining 4 embryos. I knew that these were the poorest of the bunch so the plan is to thaw them and grow to day 5. They are only 4 cells at this point, but good quality. While I was at my sono appointment today, I set up my transfer for next Friday.I asked my doctor if I should keep it in my mind that none of them will even make it to day 5 and she said Yes
Usually she's so optimistic so I'm really nervous and already feeling negative about this cycle. She did say that she would never waste my time or $$ if she thought there was no chance of it working.
Does anyone have any positive or negative experience with 4 cells at day 3?
I don't want to be a downer but 4 cells on day 3 is not good....on day 3 they should be at least 6 cell.....
Of course I have seen miracles happen, so try to stay positive...
I am just very surprised they would freeze such low cell embryos...actually I have never heard any clinic do that....
GL to you!!
Thanks! I googled day 3 and 4 cell and came across some success stories. I guess that if there is ANY chance at all that the embryo is viable, they will not discard it. My doctor said that she has seen 4 cell embryos take in patients my age, but not in older women.
