Has Frozen Embryo Transfer worked for anyone?

[BJM2877]

My Wife and I have 5 blastosysts (sp) frozen and they will be transferred in October. We have been through IVF twice and neither times did it work. After meeting with our Doctor, he informed us that we had transferred morulas (sp) the first two times. We have yet to transfer a blastosysts (sp). Our embryos are taking longer to develop. I just want it to work. I feel the world around me is getting pregnant and we have failed  IVF twice.

I just want this work. Has anyone had it work for them? I know the success rates are less with a frozen transfer than a fresh transfer, but I need hope.

All we want is a baby.

Thank you all for commenting. This is our first frozen cycle so it is so different. Less shots. My wife is taking Lupron and combining that with vival patches and estradiol vaginal suppository.

I really want this to work. If it does not I will be devasted...

I haven't gone the IVF route yet...but just wanted to share that I've heard frozen cycles are just as successful as fresh ones. Some even say they're better, because there are less medications used. Best of luck!!!

I used to think that fresh transfers worked better, but that turned out to be the exact opposite for me.

I started out with 21 embryos. 3 were to be transferred and the remaining 17 were frozen.

My first IVF in 2005 of 3 fresh embryos: NOTHING happened. No positive test, no hcg numbers, nothing.

My 2nd IVF in 2006 of 4 frozen embryos: 1 baby boy!!!

My 3rd IVF in 2008 of 3 frozen embryos: 2 faint positive home tests and a low hCG positive. It ended in a biochemical pregnancy/miscarriage

my 4th IVF: PREGNANT !!! My 1st beta blood results today: 380. That's a strong strong number. My doctor called and said I was definitely pregnant.

So, out of all my IVF's only the frozen ones worked, so have faith and don't believe that **** about fresh transfers being better than frozen. That is not the case with everybody.
