How many to put back?

Maya11 · 11-02-2007, 12:06 PM

I am doing my 3-day today (not a 5 day like they were planning) and I'm trying to decide how many to put back. I have 1 8-cell, 2 7-cell, and 2 6-cell. Since I'm almost 37yo and have one failed IVF, I'm doing either 3 or 4. Anyway I also found this article & thought it would be of interest to others:

Basically with a fresh transfer, the chance of BFP when one of the embryos transferred is an 8-cell is 64%, and with a 7-cell it's 41%.

Argh, one more hour to decide something that could influence the rest of my life!

How do you all make this decision?!?

I'm 36 and I only had one to put back and it stuck. Mine was a 7 cell grade A (best you could get). Also, I've been pregnant before (have 2 kids) so I don't have any issues with sustaining a pregnancy. That said, if we had more, we would have put more back, up to 3....good luck. I know it's a tough decision!!
