    After 4 girls desperate for a boy. Just failed ivf 5

    Hi
    I was so relieved to find a site that shared the same concerns and interests as I. I have 4 girls. I have tried desperately to have a boy five times via ivf With pgd. I am very depressed this week cause I was supposed to have my transfer this past monday but it was cancelled last minute because the results of my pgd were not good. I have 17 eggs retrieved. 15 mature. 9 fertilized. Three of them were boys but all three has chromosome problems so I had nothing to transfer and nothing to freeze. I am with dr licciardi at nyu. I opted for a day 3 fresh transfer but he said if and when u decide to go again he recommends fet after a day 5 biopsy. Has anyone done this? I have not been successful in the past with frozen transfers both failed. Do u know of any centers that can do a fresh day 6 transfer? Please help? I should add that I can't get pregnant naturally cause I had two ectopics previously that left me tubeless.

    Hibthere. I'm sorry about your NT. yes, we have several that are using day 5 biopsies due to all the false positives with day 3 testing. Day 6 fresh or a planned FESt are your two options.

    The Dream Member HT forum is where all the past Cycle Diaries are and where most of the HT chatter happens. Hope you'll join us.

    Hi M- have you been with Dr. Liccardi for all your cycles? If you are open to change , which it sounds like you are, RMA will do day 5 biopsy with day 6 transfer.

    Hi Anna
    Actually This is the first time I went to De Liccardi. I was recommended to him by a friend. I was at American Fertility before with Dr Vidali and East Coast Fertility with Dr Stern. In east Coast I ended up in Hospital From severe OHSS froze everything and had two separate transfers that didnt stick. I really wanted a fresh transfer. Where is RMA? Who can you reccommend? Would appreciate any insight. Thanks

    I can recommend Dr Potter at HRC Newport Beach. He is a gender specialist and offers Day 3 Natera with day 5 fresh tf, or day 5 aCGH testing with day 6 fresh tf. Next year try will be commencing day 5 Natera with day 6 fresh tf. He offers a discounted cycle and free initial consult (Skype or in person) to Gender Dreaming dream members.

    Hi - well, I think if you are unwilling to travel, RMA would be a good option. There have been success stories with Dr. Grunfeld, although Dr. Cooperman is supposedly very good too.
