Embryos not frozen

Hi.

I had 2 embryos transferred on Fri 04/11 and there were 7 more that got fertilized. Today the dr called and informed that none of those needed freezing since none of them turned into normal looking balstocysts. I am due for a progesterone test tomorrow and am feeling a bit worried thinking of the 2 inside me right now. Don't want to stress out unnecessarily. But any advice will help.

Thanks in advance.
JB

I am going through my very first ivf cycle myself and I can totally relate to how you feel.  I presume that they transferred two best embryos and thus the probablity of those going to blasts is higher.  Did they tell you anything about the quality of embryos that were transferred, like how many cells were those?

Also, if it was day 3 transfer, why did they transfer only 2?  Typically a clinic treansfers two on day 3 if they feel that the quality of the 2 is really good.  Otherwise they would have transferred 3, I think.

Hey JB
First let me wish you the best of luck.  I recently had 1 blastocyst transferred and I am now six weeks pg.  We to had 5 embryos left after our transfer and to our disappointment as well none were frozen.  We were told the reason s were either chromosomal or the embryo were missing something.  
My advice would be don't worry you made it this far focus on what is now and don't worry about rest.  If it doesn't work this time you can do it again!!!
Keep me updated on your results, lots of luck
