Guest guest Posted September 27, 2003 Report Share Posted September 27, 2003 I got the embie update. It is day 3 and I still have 8 embies growing strong. The RE said they were some of the most gorgeous embryos he had ever seen. The preliminary tests on the egg indicated that out of the 8, 4 had my CF gene, 1 did not, and 3 were unsure. So 7 of the 8 will be tested for my husband's CF gene. It takes 2 CF genes to make a baby with CF. If it only has one gene, it is only a carrier and fine by me. There is a 25% chance of a child with both genes and 50% of it being only a carrier. We have to wait until Monday afternoon for the ET. Wish my embies luck!! ttc#2 without Cystic Fibrosis using PGD and IVF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 , thank you so much for sharing your experience. I find this very fascinating, as it gives me hope for my daughter for when she wants to start thinking about having a family. I wish you all the luck in the world and am happy to hear that so far things are looking good. Can't wait to hear what happens next!! e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
