For my day 5 of fertilization update, I Just got the call that my embryos need one more day to reach the blast stage. I have 6 still in the running, which is a big jump from my last cycle (only 1, aneuploid), but the wait is killing me.

Looking for success stories from ladies 40+ who had embryos reach the blastocysts stage on Day 6 and go on to be pgt-a normal euploid - if so what was the grade of your embryo?.

Trying to stay positive while my "marathon runners" finish their growth! Please share your experiences and how many rounds of retrievals it took. Thanks 😊

I just finished a retrieval at age 41. I’m looking to hear from others 40+ about your journey to a PGT-A normal embryo.

Specifically: How many retrieval rounds did it take to get at least one euploid?

What was the "Gap" between rounds? Did you do back-to-back (duostims), or wait for a full cycle/several months in between?

Protocol shifts: If you did multiple rounds, did you find better success with back-to-back cycles or by taking breaks for supplements/lifestyle resets?

My Context: Just got 8 eggs from my latest round of retrieval. Planning for 3 more rounds if needed. Just trying to calibrate my expectations for the "long game." Thanks ladies!
