I'm Carolina's partner. To answer your question: we did one embryo at a time, because we opted for genetic testing of the embryos. The testing ended up being cheaper than we expected and took a lot of worry out of the process, since we were 95% assured of chromosomal normality. It also upped our chances to 60% per embryo (at our clinic, but the average success rate is 50%, which is still excellent). I also did acupuncture and took the herbal tea my acupuncturist made. That really helped to keep me calm the day of the transfer and I highly recommend it if the option is available to you. We had a number of failed IUIs so we were trying to do everything possible to make it work as quickly as possible in IVF. Let us know how it goes!
We go in on Thursday for our egg retrieval, not sure exactly how many follicles there are maybe around 14 that will be mature. We hope
Oh, and a side note to anyone else reading, I did acupuncture the day before and the day of. I also drank herbal tea for a few months before, and went to acupuncture as regularly as I could. And one thing that I think really helped me, I cut all gluten for about a month before the transfer. Hard, but I feel like it helped. I hope that helps!

We are going in tomorrow for our first Beta level. We are 13dp5dt, so tomorrow will be the end of our TWW. We are so crazy excited, my wife has been super tired last night and this morning, I hope that's just a sign of our little one or ones growing.
Its been awhile since I've been on here. How is it going? Hope all is well. We transferred our last embryo on 3/21/17 it was a 6 day blastocyst. This has been such a long week, just wanting to know how you were doing...
