    This is what happened for us -

    9 eggs collected
    3 were not mature enough
    5 fertilised normally
    4 at blast on day 5
    1 transferred (and is now an 18month old girl )
    3 frozen blasts


    GOOD LUCK

    On my first ICSI, 7 follicles were retrieved, 4 fertilised, 1 stopped growing, 1 was a slow-grower and 2 got to morulla stage. None frozen as both were implanted but none took.

    On the second ICSI, 11 follicles retrieved, 9 fertilised, 2 implanted on day 3, 1 stopped growing and I think we have 6 snow bubs. I am a bad mother-to-be (hopefully) because I think 6 are on ice but my partner thinks it's only 4

    Hi
    We got 14 eggs - 7/7 split ICSI and regular
    of 7 ICSI, 4 made it to day 3 and were frozen then
    of 7 others, 1 didn't fertilise and 3 (50% of those fertilised) made it to blast stage

    Good luck!
