[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m hoping that OP has a better outcome, but I think this was such a foolish medical decision. Best to transfer 2-3 and freeze the rest for later transfers. If something is off during the transfer (not-ideal hormone levels or poor lining thickness or presence of a polyp) she could lose all six at once. Then it’s back to another rigorous, invasive, expensive retrieval (if she continues) rather than much easier transfers where the other embryos could have a chance. The process is difficult enough not to add in kicking yourself for taking such a risky procedure and potentially losing all of your options in a flash.[/quote]

You, and other PPs, should really understand that OP was likely given under 10% odds of success over all transfers for that retrieval cycle - whether she does one 5-embryo transfer or 5 one-embryo transfers. It is also not her first cycle - no RE will transfer that many on your first or second cycle. OP has been around the block many times and has had the chance to try out various transfer protocols. The fatigue is real too. If you've been through 3+ retrieval and 2-3x that many transfers, drawing out each failed transfer one at a time is agony. [/quote]

Why do people care so much? It's not like they're going to be asked to do diaper duty on the quadruplets.

Meanwhile people are smoking crack and doing heroin and meth while pregnant. [/quote]
