So far so good! On our day 3 embryo evaluation, we had the following results:
9 - 8 cell grade 4 embryos
5 - 8 cell grade 3 embryos
3 - 6 cell and 5 cell embryos
Looking results up online, it sounds like FINO's grading is reversed. The nurse told me that grade 3 and 4 are the embryos that "make the babies". So we have 14 high quality embryos as of day 3. We will transfer on day 5 when they are in the blastocyst state. This helps give an even better assessment of embryo quality - and in the end results in a higher rate of pregnancy. We are able to do this because had so many high quality embryos. It also puts the embryo where it should be on day 5, as opposed to a day 3 transfer where the embryo in a natural pregnancy hasn't traveled that far yet! So tomorrow morning at 8 is our embryo transfer, and things look good so far. Just continue to pray for good development and for everything to go perfectly tomorrow! Let's hope tomorrow is finally our day!
