Apparently it does, but I now can't read anyone's posts while I am typing.

Hope you are all well, and good luck to everyone coming up to EPU and transfer. Hope we get some Christmas babies in here soon!

Saffy, how did your test go? Hope you are doing okay.

Oneday, in terms of embryo age I think you have a higher chance with a blastocyst, but the downside is you don't get as many embryos. They don't yet know whether an embryo that didn't make it to blastocyst would have survived if it was transferred earlier. The benefit of blastocyst is it might reduce 'time wasting' with non-viable embryos. I did a blastocyst at my last transfer, but I am wondering whether I might revert to day three for the next one for the psychological benefit of having a transfer and potentially some embryos to freeze. My FS will only do blastocyst if there are enough embryos. At the end of the day I think it's s personal choice. Sorry for my rambling on the topic.

AFM: Saw the FS on Monday, and it was not the conversation I was expecting. Apparently the eggs degenerated due to infection by a bacteria that was picked up from me at the EPU. He has never seen this before!! He is recommending the same protocol with a course of strong antibiotics ahead of any future EPU. That's twice now he has told me he's never seen anything like it before - apparently I am very unique and complicated! Am week one of my gluten free diet. It's not so bad and really hoping it makes a difference with the next cycle. Aim to get my body in shape by then.
