My RE last told me that only 30% of couples have any embies left over to freeze after transfer.<BR/><BR/>(which proved oddly prophetic in my case, when I had barely 1 embie to transfer ;-( )<BR/><BR/>Wishing you all the best,GLouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15146524259296901512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20831465.post-64252288408712518652007-07-20T19:30:00.000-04:002007-07-20T19:30:00.000-04:00Ugh; I'm sorry Jenny.

Apart from anything else, it seems penny-wise and pound-foolish.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure how viable the IUI option is for you two, but I would be inclined to save my money for something which has a reasonable chance of working. See also penny-wise, pound-foolish. IUI might fall into that category for you, I don't know.<BR/><BR/>So that leaves putting things off or taking out a loan and going ahead. I would do whichever is going to cause the least stress and strain. Medically speaking, an extra month or two won't make that much difference. On the other hand, you don't want to be stuck here in limbo forever.<BR/><BR/>BeaBeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877513815828460269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20831465.post-54871310404717446752007-07-20T14:41:00.000-04:002007-07-20T14:41:00.000-04:00Decisions are surely tough...I wish you the best i...Decisions are surely tough...I wish you the best in making the one thats best for you all...HUGSJJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18027548058304720360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20831465.post-51915826161616293802007-07-20T12:34:00.000-04:002007-07-20T12:34:00.000-04:00These decisions suck.
