Hmmm... I did that with cycle 3. I had one in the freezer. It's a really hard decision. I'd say once again have a wee break then see how you feel once your out of that initial 'grieving period'.
How do you feel?
I was devastated yesterday but am felling much better after a long sleep. If we decide to go ahead with a new fresh cycle, I need to start taking BCP now because FS thinks long cycle wroks better on me though I prefer an antagonist cycle. What your embryo looked like on the screen? This one looked like a pillow, not a round one at all.
Mine looked different both times.
2nd cycle was day 6 so pretty fully hatched and kind of looked like a figure 8. This was my bio chemical pregnancy.
3rd cycle was a day 5 and he looked more like a roundish thing but with lots of cells hanging out the side from the testing.
The only problem I had with my embies being hatched was I had one healthy male embie which was fully hatched, he had latched on to the glass peitry dish and when they tried to get it off for storage he got stuck in the pipet and was 'killed'.
I'm glad you feel better today. I had long breaks between cycles but to be honest if dh and I coped better as a couple I'd have done back to backs. It just didn't suit our marriage, we ease into things.
I have no words for you, I just want you to know that you can try to share your frustrating burden with us anytime you please.
I'm glad you are feeling better after your sleep, and remember, just make decisions you feel comfortable with. If that means going on BCP now, then do it, if it means waiting, then it's all your choice. You have to be happy with it.
Molisa- so sorry you had no Luck this cycle. It really is devastating, especially with normal embryos. please take care of yourself and good luck making a decision about next cycle. i'll be
Thinking of you.
Eje- great that you have the emotiomal resilience to continue despite the setbacks. It is so expensive, isn't it??? When will you do this year's cycle?
AFM gave birth at 31 plus 6 weeks, 3 weeks ago. Babies doing well considering, although some scary times early on. Next time will not be putting two embryos back!!! (although I wouldn't change them for the world...)
I did iVf pgd about 3 years ago to screen for neurofibromatosis we were very lucky to have one normal emryo left to transfere now I'm blessed to have a 2yo boy
We tried again late last year but we were unlucky we had all 4 embryos not suitable for transfer
Just thought share my story
I'm so scared to start again looking for people to share the journey with,,,,,,

Hi Luisella,
I can identify with being scared to start the journey again - I find myself feeling like we would really be being greedy or pushing our luck to try again!
Like you I used PGD to avoid transmitting a nasty gene (a bone disease in my case), and I became pregnant on my first cycle. And now DS is 3, and I'm not getting any younger, but I am scared to give it another go.
This thread isn't usually this quiet - but a few of the regulars are having a break at the moment.
hugs
Kate
