3 day embryo transfer

So here's what happens in a successful 3 day embryo transfer:) right now I guess I'm 4 days past a 3 day transfer:)


3-Day Transfer
Days Past
Transfer (DPT) Embryo Development

One The embryo continues to grow and develop, turning from a 6-8 cell embryo into a morula

Two The cells of the morula continue to divide, developing into a blastocyst

Three The blastocyst begins to hatch out of its shell

Four The blastocyst continues to hatch out of its shell and begins to attach itself to the uterus

Five The blastocyst attaches deeper into the uterine lining, beginning implantation

Six Implantation continues

Seven Implantation is complete, cells that will eventually become the placenta and fetus have begun to develop

Eight Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) starts to enter the blood stream

Nine Fetal development continues and hCG continues to be secreted

Ten Fetal development continues and hCG continues to be secreted

Eleven Levels of hCG are now high enough to detect a pregnancy
