My ET is tomorrow, they chose day 3 even if I am not quite sure the day 5 transfer was an alternative. It seems that they wanted 3dt from the beginning (maybe as an italian emryologist said, because a blastocyst means more that the lab spend more money and time and don't want to).
Adrianna, they chose day 3 for me too, I wasn't even aware of a 5 day transfer until I started reading other people's posts. Exciting though - tomorrow! The best of luck. I hope it all goes smoothly for you. Are they giving you the option of acupuncture? I did it last time but I might not do it this time.
Does anyone have any opinions on whether acupuncture is important? Doesn't seem to be that beneficial as when I did it the IVF didn't succeed.... but I'd be interested to hear your opinions...

Dear Liquorice, I've done acupuncture for long time, in Guangzhou, with a Chinese lady doctor, very good and very well-prepaired. I didn't tell to other people what for, I usually said for the general health. I say this to you: I've done for having a better fertility. I was feeling very well and energized but...didn't help. Maybe because in may case it is an anatomic problem: I have the fallopian tubes a bit longer than necessary and our "boys and girls" (sperm and ovules) maybe didn't have the chance to meet each other (until now, in the lab). I will se if this was a problem.
In the last months f the treatment I felt uncomfortable because I have a sensitive skin and was very painful. So, if you are comfortbale could e a help but in my case didn't work.
Although I heard some cases in which worked for pregnant women (helped moving the child and get ready for birth).

Hkiegal...we're thinking of you!
Liquorice, you're transferring very soon. My thoughts on acupuncture are that it is not a deal breaker. I think if it is going to work, it is going to work. I am not so much a believer in positive thinking, eating pineapple, etc. Early on in my infertility days I would feel really guilty at the end of each month when AF would show..."I should have kept my legs raised longer after Dh and i did the deed....", and then I just let it go. I have done acupuncture and had a successful cycle and have had unsuccessful cycles. I have had not had acupunture and had a successful cycle. So, I am of mixed minds. Overall, I would say I am in favour of a long term acupunture treatment for the entire body. Does that make sense?? ANyway, I am rambling...
May...getting close for you too...so so exciting.

Thanks Dimsum mum. You do make sense. I have had acupuncture for other things before and liked it but having it with the ET last time was really uncomfortable. I know it sounds daft but it is because the most difficult thing for me with the ET was holding a full bladder for so long and if you have acupuncture it makes it so much longer!
hi girls.
I had my ET today at noon. They put inside 3 embrios (one 8 cells and other two 6 cells) and froze 2 embrios (5 and 7 ells). At the end remained only 5. The things went smoothly, I drank 600 ml water without exaggerate and the doctor made it fast. Now, back in the hotel, I say a little spot of blood and I'm concern about it. Did you have something like this too? Next Monday I will have the blood test for progesterone level and after another week that one for pregnancy. But, my question is: this blood spot could be connected to the embryo's loose?
