What to do with remaining frozen embryos

Hello everyone.l would really like some help in deciding a very important issue.l have two beautiful daughters aged 2 and 4 who l adore very much.l got them both through a tough round of ivf treatment. In the last treatment ivf treatment, 3 embryos were produced,one resulting in my 2 year old and 2 more were frozen.l got  a letter the other day reminding me that l should decide what to do with them otherwise they may be destroyed or given to science. I talked to my husband about it and he said whatever l decide he will go for it.l really feel guilty if l dont give those 2 a chance to live.has anyone ever go e through that?what should l do?

@sweetxtina Thanks for the reply..l also think science would be better than destroying them. But after thinking hard, a big family is not that bad either.so maybe l should try for another baby or babies.after all it took me 7 years to get my first child.do you have kids
