Cycle 1: 8 eggs, all mature, 6 fertilized 3 blasts, transferred 2 and froze 1: BFP but had an ectopic

Cycle 2: 7 eggs, all mature, 6 fertilized, 6 blasts. Froze and CCS tested those blasts plus the one from last round. Three normal.

Did a FET, BFP with transfer of one CCS normal embryo

8 eggs
7 fertilized with ICSI
5 made it to 5 day, all top quality.

Fresh transfer was BFN but frozen was a BFP! Now 8 weeks, with three still frozen.


Congrats PP! Which Dr at SG did you see? I found it impossible to convince my Dr to go low dose/no BCP route


Thanks, I'm hoping this one sticks!! I saw Dr. O'Brien, who I really liked. I switched from a different doctor who had me on an alarming high amount of meds.

I'm so shocked to see all the 29 and early 30's women posting on here...

Not what I expected.

How did you get so many more eggs retrieved in your last IVF? 25 vs. 12 is a lot!
