Embryos Did Not Make It To Freeze
I just had my first IVF cycle. I'm currently in the 2WW. We had 5 eggs on retrieval, 4 fertilized via ICSI. On Monday we transferred two embryos - a 8 cell grade 1 and a 7 cell grade 2. The remaining two eggs were left to see if we could freeze them. I found out today they did not make it to blastocyst, which has me worried that the overall quality of the eggs/embryos isn't good. Is there any validity to this?
