[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, it's crazy to me how many PPs are intent on bringing down the OP.  Save your stories of miscarraige and how IVF didn't work for you. She wasn't asking for that. Really, you can't be happy for the woman who, by any standard for any age, had a tremendous retrieval and fertilization rate?!!  It's sad how unsupportive some of you are.

To the OP, best wishes!   I had fewer eggs retreived at 40 and only one made it to day 5 but I had a beautiful baby boy in November (at 41).  Best wishes to you.  You only need one good one, but chances are you'll have many good ones.  [/quote]

NP.  OP asked for comments.  She didn't ask only for positive stories and comments.  Sometimes the negative comments can help set expectations.

Fwiw, OP, I agree with the prior responses who said to do CGH/genetic testing.  With that many eggs, and presumably a good number of embryos, you could end up doing repeated FETs if you aren't putting back genetically normal embryos.  Good luck.   [/quote]

PP again.  I wonder if they'd let you do a fresh transfer of 3-5 blasts and then test the rest?  When I was 41 (with 16 eggs retrieved, which surprised me), I transferred 3 5-day blasts.
