Surprise embryo

Well, today my coordinator called to tell me that we actually have 3 embryos frozen; not 2. I tried to tell her that wasn't possible. It's not like I wouldn't remember how many embryos we have frozen. There's not many to keep track of....it's a little hard to lose count of 2.

Apparently, she had looked at my chart and things just didn't add up so she researched things and talked with the lab and it turns out there was one Day 3 embryo back in my July cycle that they didn't biopsy because it wasn't looking so good, but it ended up turning around and making it to blast. It was frozen but not discarded with the blasts that tested abnormal as it never actually got tested. I have no idea how I was never told about it but, since it seems to work in my favor, I'm not going to complain.

So we have an "inconclusive embryo" (which I understand is basically the same as untested),
an untested embryo and the CGH normal embryo. I talked with my Dr. and he's willing to let me transfer all 3 to my surrogate. The downside of this is, if by some miracle she does get pregnant, we won't really have the full benefit of the CGH testing when it comes to not having to worry as much about miscarriage or doing invasive testing. I know, who am I kidding? It's not like we'll get far enough to be worrying about an amnio. Ha! I can't believe the thought even entered my mind there for a minute.

DH and I both admitted to one another today that we would consider doing an 8th fresh cycle if things don't work out with this transfer to our surrogate. I had been afraid to mention it to him for fear he'd think I had become insane and he was afraid to bring it up to me. It's crazy, I know. I just can't "move on".... partially because I don't know what we'd move on to.
