Can anyone tell me for a day 3 transfer what would be the best cell count. I had 2 embies that were 8 cell grade A and 2 that were 7b's. Is 8A the best they could be at day 3? Last month was my first IVF and I had one 8B and the rest 6 A's. I am hoping that the 8A's will make the difference. I hate the dreaded 2WW, it makes my mind go all sorts of ways! Thanks in advance for your input. :-\

Hi coll1964
I don't know for sure but I think with a 3-day transfer, 8 cells is pretty darn good. Of course it isn't a guarantee. I had 2 embryos transfered back, one a 3-cell, one a 4-cell and both D quality (the worst) and I becamse pg and had a healthy baby 7 years ago. I am sure that the more cells, the better it's developing which can mean the healthier it is. It is too bad our tummies aren't a crystal window in which to watch and find out what's happening. The 2ww will be over eventually and you will have your answer. Good luck Meridith

Thanks Meridith & Wantsbaby, the embies were fresh. I had my b/w today for progesterone level and Friday will be preg. test. I am feeling like I am getting my period though but am hopeful for once the signs are wrong >:( The most frustrating thing is if the eggs are good quality and I had my uterus checked last Oct. for endometriosis (sp?) etc, why am I not getting pregnant?? My DH is thinking that if this one does not work that we should push for a day 5 transfer see if the embies are going to blast. What do you all think? Thanks again. Coll.

I think a 5 day transfer would be great, then you know they can implant. Good luck and I pray and hope that you are pg and that this long journey is over. Take care and keep in touch
