Freezing conditions

I know - vitrifying avoids crystals


We have one that we get to freeze, and the other one appears to have quit.  So - I guess we're left with The Little Embie Who Could.  In any case, the nurse told me that the embryologist was surprised by how excellent it looked.  Now we just wait for my period to start again, and then we're on the roller coaster. Apparently the clinic wants to do the FET before we try another fresh cycle, so I don't know whether to hope it works, or hope that it doesn't and we get some sort of a chance at additional embryos.

The weather here cooperated with the Freezing theme of the day, and it snowed fairly heavily this morning (although it didn't stick much, or for long).  I have to say that the crazy weather is starting to get on my nerves,  sunny and warm, blowing and snowing...  just pick a season...preferably late spring.

The snow was tapering off when I took this picture.

    That's a nice looking embryo! Hopefully the FET will work and you won't have to go through another fresh cycle.

    Great that the 'little embryo that could' made it through and looks so good :) Sounds like we might be doing our FET cycles together :)) Rest up and stay warm xoxo

    I know it really sucks that you didn't get to proceed with this cycle. I am putting my faith in your clinic. It sounds like they really know what they are doing and I have so much faith in your upcoming FET cycle.

    Sending you lots of love as you wait for this next chance.

    I'm so glad the little embie that could made it! Maybe that embie made it for a reason!

    This is definitely a roller coaster ride all of us fertility chicks are on. I'm pulling for the little one. Praying everything works out for you !!

    We got a little snow yesterday as well. I like the "thawing" theme.

    We're ready for it!

    (Congrats on the Little Embryo Who Could. I think s/he can. I think s/he can. I think s/he can!)

    What a shame this cycle... well, at least there is one embie to go through to FET. Sometimes we just have to trust the clinics know what they're doing... even if it's different from other clinics.

    I saw on a forum a lady who transferred one with a frozen cycle and ended up with TWIN girls. That one little embrie can!

    Sorry you didn't get to transfer this time.
