Kristy - I am so sorry to hear that none of the 9 made it! You are in my prayers - I am hoping there is success with the thawing process!

Sorry for the delay in update. =)

One of the embryos survived the thaw. They did the transfer. They transferred 1 of the frozen embryos and they went ahead and transferred 2 of the best slow growers.

They restricted her from using the computer or cell phone for 3 days. She’ll check in on Saturday, which is when she goes home.

Betsy-thanks for the update.

What a relief that one of the embryos made it, and that they went ahead with the 2 others, you just never know...

Kristy, You, K&D are all in my prayers. I guess I never even thought of how truly emotional this whole process would be. I figured it'd happen, no problem.
Wow.

Betsy thank you so much for updating everyone! It was so great meeting you!!! Dinner was fabulous and I am now a chocolate martini fan!!!

Thank you everyone for the thoughts and prayers. We remain hopeful but are already planning for a January cycle if this doesn't work. This was the first time IM did not have any of the embryos make it to blast stage by day 5. Of the 9, 3 were compact and the remaining 6 were cleaves. One of the 6 day blasts survived the thaw. I transferred the frozen blast and 2 of the compacts. The RE said the other embryos didn't have a chance to make it to blast stage needed for freezing so IM transferred the remaining compact and 5 cleaves. It sounds like a lot but the odds were against us from the begining. I have a 50% chance on one taking and less than a 5% chance on triplets. IM has around 15% chance on one taking.

On a brighter note, I spent the last 3 days in bed with IM watching movies, reading books and laughing our heads off. It was such a great time. We talked about everything that could happen and everything if it didn't work. We really connected. I know 100% this is the couple I am meant to help. I just pray it works!!!

Neither of us are feeling symptoms and IM said she always knows by now if it worked or didn't by how she feels. Today I am 3 days post 6 day frozen transfer and 3 days post 5 day fresh transfer so 8-9 dpo. I will POAS tonight when I get home just to see and because I am such a POAS addict

Please continue to keep IP's in your prayers. She has been through so much and I really really pray this works for her.

BFN last night and this morning. I know it is early. I am 4 dp6dFET/5dFresh transfer which equals 9-10 dpo. I texted dh to stock up on dollar tree tests so I could blow through them and then if I got a BFP I would go buy better tests....he bought the entire display

Kristy - OMG! Now that's a box of hpts! It may still be early to detect any hcg, though. Dont' get discouraged. You don't know how long it will take for them to start implanting.

I was just checking in. Did you test today? How do you feel?

I agree with Rac it may just be too early & the $1 store tests aren't as sensitive as a FR!
