[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having been in the infertility world for many years now, I wouldn’t count your chickens before they hatch. 8 embryos (I assume normal blasts?) is great, but why not an IUD until you’re completely done building your family? TESE isn’t always successful, plus it’s invasive and expensive.[/quote]

+1 I wouldn’t feel comfortable with that until we’d had the second child we knew we wanted. Are your embryos tested?[/quote]

No, they are not tested. My RE didn’t think it was necessary due to my age at egg retrieval (30) and diagnosis (PCOS). I feel pretty confident with 8 blasts, but I would definitely feel even better if they were tested. I think we will probably hold off on the vasectomy, just in case.[/quote]

I had 7 embryos at 34yo, also with PCOS.  Untested, because my RE also didn't think it was necessary.  Ended up with 1 DD, 1 ectopic, 1 failed transfer, and 4 that didn't survive thawing.  Having thought that we would "easily" get 2 or 3 healthy babies from those embryos then gone through that experience, I'd advise against assuming you're good with 8.[/quote]
