I've seen not much of a difference with either. I'm kind of paranoid about doing a 3 day transfer because my pregnancies don't usually last longer than 3-5 days. Although, we'll be picking the cream of the crop!<br /><br />I agree with taking Melatonin. It worked well for me in the past!<br /><br />I love that your doc is pulling out all the stops to make your baby stick.<br /><br />Keep hanging in there girlie! You're doing great!LisaBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08662932656659080958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4417096071228788500.post-34552914589310274642010-12-27T21:00:48.756-06:002010-12-27T21:00:48.756-06:00Are you on medrol too?

I woke up ever 1 - 2 hours all night long.<br /><br />I did a 5 day transfer and I recommend it assuming your clinic has good success growing embryos to 5 days. The best argument I've read for doing 5d over 3d is most of the really bad chromosomal issues will prevent an embryo from growing to 5 days, so the ones that make it to a blastocyst are more likely to be normal.<br /><br />Good luck!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04219123390081008332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4417096071228788500.post-10332323364235011472010-12-27T18:34:55.823-06:002010-12-27T18:34:55.823-06:00I don't know much about AH but I was all about...I don't know much about AH but I was all about a 5 day transfer and knew I would be devastated with a 3 day. After our ER and talking to the doctor, I was actually okay with a 3 day transfer. So we transferred 2 at day 3 but the other 3 weren't frozen until after day 5. Good luck and I hope you get some shut eye.Crossing My Fingershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01033052069822097103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4417096071228788500.post-17366972461132752302010-12-27T17:55:27.791-06:002010-12-27T17:55:27.791-06:00Try melatonin.

Try to find one with valerian root. The melatonin can give you some crazy dreams, and the valerian will counteract that.<br /><br />Re: 3d w/ AH vs 5d...I dunno. I guess at the end of the day, I'd just go with what my doctor and the embryologist think gives the best odds. That's what we did with our cycle. We were planning on a 5d transfer but they were afraid we might not have many left by then - and maybe none to freeze - so we did a 3d instead. But I've already really, really tried to just pretty much leave it all up to the doctor and not think about any of it myself. I wouldn't take my car to be fixed and then insist to the mechanic that he needs to rebuild the transmission, not replace the timing belt. Or something. You know. Let your RE decide if it's your transmission or your timing belt :)~C~https://www.blogger.com/profile/17023387821284924172noreply@blogger.com
