I'm sitting here beside my napping 8-week old son (a day 5 morula transfer :)), and wondering what to expect regarding our frozen embryos. To be honest, I now have 2 children, and had never planned on having more. But I am one of those people who has ended up with frozen embryos left over, and we have decided that for us the right choice would be to transfer them. The 2 embryos are 6 cell, grade 2 and 14 cell, grade 2. These are 3rd choice embryos from a cycle in which we had 2 failures (1 fresh, 1 frozen); my son was conceived during a 2nd fresh cycle. What is your feeling about the likelihood of success? No need to be diplomatic given the circumstances I have described. Do you think I should expect a success rate less than average for my clinic in my age group (37)? Also, just for my own edification, when a day 5 embryo has only made it to the morula stage, as in my experience, do you generally see less resulting pregnancies? And are morulas graded at all? I always got the feeling that my RE was a little pessimistic at the time of transfer, but he never admitted it. Perhaps I will ask him at the next appt. :) Happy Holidays!
