Success with low grade c embryos

33 replies

ivfround3zoe · 25/04/2019 13:31

Hi everyone. This is my 2nd fresh ivf cycle. My first round I had 3 embryos , 2 low grades and had an early miscarriage in Feb If last year. I had a FET in December with a grade C and a BFN and now so completed another fresh round but I have the same issue that my embryos are low grade and are both C graded and that's why that gave put 2 back in. I am 4dp5dt and got given a 30-35% chance of it working so I feel like I have lost all hope. Anyone with any low grave embryos that have success to keep me going?
Thanks

ivfround3zoe yes that's exactly what I had. Apparently it's more common with ivf pregnancies. I literally had blood pouring out if me at 8 weeks and my poor friend at work had to mop it off of the toilet floor at work before driving me to the EPU. I got a scan the following morning and the baby was still going strong! The blood is coming from the placenta. Try to stay calm and if possible get lots of rest. I took a week sick off work to let things settle. I had bleeding right up to about 16 weeks. I have everything crossed for you. Feel free to PM me if you want to chat off this board xx

@Cutesbabasmummy so now I have been diagnosed with a subchronic hematoma! This is what you had? I had severe cramps in the night and a lot of red bleeding j went to the EPU and they said it's large and on top of the sac I'm now very worried about this and she said it could go either way! Was yours large? I'm worried as it's in a bad place too! And seems to have grown big in 1 1/2 days! Xxx

It's so stressful, @ivfround3zoe - the waiting is interminable. I don't know why they talk about the two-week-wait - it's not two weeks, it's more like a sodding month by the time you have a scan.

Hang in there - if you google, you'll find loads and loads of women talking about how common bleeding in early pregnancy is, which can be reassuring.

Obviously the better thing to do would be to busy yourself and try not to think about it, but I know from experience that's completely impossible!

Hey flower! I had bright red blood literally dripping out of me all over the floor and my bean still made it.I think its really common with ivf. Can you get an emergency scan at your early pregnancy unit? Xx

@RedPandaFluff thank you I know what you mean I said to the nurse I don't think I will ever not worry! Yes I'm on progesterone 3 x a day! I'm just praying this isn't a chemical pregnancy 🙏🏻🙏🏻

ivfround3zoe I had huge bleeds at 6 and 8 weeks and bled all the way to 15 weeks but I have a healthy and mischievous 4 year old son now. Try not to worry but ask for extra scans if it gets heavy. I had sub choronic haematoma.

@ivfround3zoe that's fantastic! Congratulations!

I hate to break it to you but you will ALWAYS worry. Now you've had your BFP, you will worry about your first scan. Once you've had your first scan, you will worry about the next one. It's just a series of new and evolving worries and obsessions! Best thing you can do is say "today I am pregnant; I will deal with whatever tomorrow brings tomorrow".

Are you on progesterone? I was for all four of my cycles and I got backache and cramps every single time, so I reckon it's perfectly normal. The discharge is likely to be from implantation. If the cramps get severe, or you have bright red bleeding, contact your clinic.

Yay! :-)
