They transfer the amt of eggs according to the age of the donor and not the reciepient. If the donor is in her 20s they do 2. I would talk to the doc about putting 3 in there. I would prefer a later date transfer because you have a better idea which embies have made it so far and they can put the strongest and best in there.
Dont let your age worry you. We have healthy uteruses, they give us the hormones we need and all we need is a strong embie to implant and grow. Good luck my friend. Keep in touch with often if you need to. Baby dust, baby dust, baby dust.

I guess the office is being cautious according to the RN. They have had alot of multiples recently. Even one mom is pregnant with quads. The doctor feels it is too hard on the mommies. Which of course is true. Obviously.... I just want to get pregnant.
We will see.....2 days to go before the transfer.......

Hello Ladies ..... I had the transfer this morning at 9:30. The doctor transferred two eggs, froze two, and three teetered out. I have been laying in bed all day since the transfer. Boy..... does daytime tv stink! I go in for the prenancy test on April 22 @ 7:30. SCARY! Are there any symptoms that you feel this early? I really have no different feelings. I never mentioned to the doctor about transferring 3 instead of 2 ----- he pretty much stated that he was doing 2.
Good luck my friend and congrats on a successful transfer. I lay mostly on the couch during my 2 day bedrest episode and stare at my belly and wonder what is going on in there. I started feeling more emotional about day 10-11 and thats when I thought I could be pg. I mean really more emotional. The rest of me felt the same and then one day: humungous boobs.

I made it through the one week. Next week is going to be the longest week in history for me anyway! I have my pregnancy test on Friday at 7:30 am. I am having them call my DH with the results. I just can't deal with any bad news. My husband is already mad that only 2 were transfered. So, he can vent to them if it's anything but positive! Of course it will positive though.....I keep telling myself that anyway! Did any one catch the surrogate on the Today Show on Wednesday ---- she is carrying 5 babies! She looks like she has a giant beach ball in her belly! After that I was okay with the two!
Linsey, Time flies! it's already been a week! I will be looking for your post on Fri. make sure dh asks about beta numbers!Best of luck to you! I'll be hoping for a BFP! cassandra

I am glad that you said that Cassanda about the beta numbers. What is the significance of knowing that? I have really been confused when I heard members talk about that!
