How much would you pay to avoid a miscarriage?

We did PGS because we had 15 embryos to choose from and kept transferring abnormal embryos. Figured out only 2 were normal. Kid is now 3

So sorry to hear this. Yes, doing PGS won’t avoid a miscarriage...you can still miscarry PGS normal embryos.

Emotionally absolutely yes if it kept me from having a miscarriage. The FET would have been $2600 or so. So I paid $1000 to save myself a lot of pain. Yes. Worth it.

I'm sorry to hear this. What are your next steps?

Bumping this thread with an update from me since I know so many of us are struggling with this decision. On my third round of IVF we got 5 embryos and froze them on Day 3. We decided not to do PGS this time. We did a FET with 2 of the untested embryos. I got pregnant but miscarried at 7 weeks. Now prepping to transfer the remaining 3. If that fails I have no idea what to do next.

any update on this?

Not yet. Still haven’t gotten my period following the miscarriage. Can’t do another transfer until it returns. Meanwhile I just sit around and get older.
