IVF/ICSI - What day and how many did you have transfered?

[Blue12]

Just found out today that my fs only likes to to day 3 transfers.

I was thinking that day 5 is better - but I know many people have success with day 3 and that my fs must have her reasons for this.

What did you go through?
*I will post this in pg section too*

Thanks so much!

Hi I did a 3 day transfer with 2 4 cell embryos. First time this didn't work but then I did a FET - again 3 day transfer (one cell loss on each 4 cell embryo) with 2 embryos.
I am 31 weeks on Saturday with one baby.
Good luck!!

My transfer's not until next week Blue, but I'm doing 1 embie at 3 days.
I think it really varies depending on where you live, but that's pretty much the standard protocol here in Australia.
When is your transfer? Good luck!!

All of my transfers so far have been from fresh cycles and were grades 1 or 2, 8 or 9 cell, day 3 embies. We're hoping to go to day 5 this next time round.

I'm not sure how to write this but I had a day two transfer with 2 x 4-cell, grade 1 embryos!

Blue places in the UK only tend to do certain day transfers. My clinic only does Day2 or Day5 - I didn't have enough to risk going to day 5 so I would have been a Day2 BUT they couldn't decide which were the best to put back and so I had a day3 transfer with 2 put back. My clinic went on and on about blasto being better if you are that lucky.
The new clinic I am going to puts them back early as they reckon better back in the Mum asap and they have success that way.
I'm torn as to what to do but I hope I have the amount and quality to get a choice this time.

I had Day 2 transfer, with 2 embryos - one 4 cell and one 5 cell. I'm now 14 weeks with one baby.

I think my clinic has success rates similar to that of Bath and Oxford, but it only does 2 day transfers.

Good luck!

hi sorry for jumping in here but what does FET stand for??

FROZEN EMBRYO TRANSFER - if you have left over embryo's after ivf/icsi - they are frozen and then can be defrosted and transfered.

I think once you know how many eggs you have and then how many fertilise will give u a better idea of how succesful it is likely to be. If they only do a 3 day transfer but u have lots of good quality embies it shouldnt matter. We only had one transferred as we were told that with blasto we had a 55% chance of having twins!! I was a bit disappointed at first, but now being pregnant with one only I am EXTREMELY glad lolololol!!!
