Question regarding success rates...

Hi!  I am wondering what my success rate would be with this cycle.  And what the chances are of having one baby, twins, triplets or none.  Here is my situation. 

I am 31 yrs old.  I had the egg retrieval on 8/13 and had 20 eggs, 13 of which were fertilized and growing.  On 8/18 we transferred 3 good quality early blastocysts and also froze 3 morulas. 

Our hx:  We had a successful baby after our 1st IVF attempt 2 years ago at which time we transferred 2 expanding blastocysts.  At that time we froze 6 blastocysts, which were transferred in 3 tries (2 each try), none of which was successful. 

So now as I am "patiently" waiting for 8/31 (our pg test day) I am wracking my brain and the internet for stats. 

Thanks
Jenny

Dear Dr.
We are just after an unsuccessful ICSI cyle. I am 36 and ,my husband is 56. He has a very low motility which is 0% but good in count. After retrieving only 4 eggs out of 5, they said no fertilization has occurerd. we are going for another icsi cyle in November. Pl advise us weather to do a ivf or icsi.
thanks

I"m not the doctor, but I thought you should know that I don't think anyone is answering to this forum...  I wrote my question on the other thread and received a reply rather quickly...

ICSI and IVF is probably what you would do...  ICSI is where they inject the sperm right into the egg and can be a part of IVF. 

Good luck!  I am anxiously awaiting my pg test on Friday!  We transferred 3 blastocytes.  What an emotional rollercoaster it can be.  We had a succesful baby with IVF 2 years ago on our first try, then recently 3 failed frozen cycles and now we did another fresh so I am really hopefull for this to work!  I wish it were free, that would take away some of the stress.  It's hard knowing this is our last try!
