Embryo Biopsy Update

本站添加: 2026-05-06

[00:00:00]So, it is April 14th. I just ended my last video and I wanted to make this video separate just so that it doesn't all mush together into one big long video. Um, I wanted to give an update.

[00:00:14]The embryology team called me today from Sarasota.

[00:00:22]Uh, the the results are back from Cooper. So, the results are in. And so, you know, I was on the phone and I'm just like not even breathing. I'm like, "Okay, just give it to me straight." You know, like, "Okay, go ahead." You know, and she said that they, you know, they tested the two embryos that were sent and one of them, and I don't know which one it was, um, cuz one of them was a good and a fair, and the other one was a fair and a poor.

[00:00:58]Well, I don't know which one tested this way, but one of them is like highly highly mosaic, meaning that there are way more abnormal cells than there are normal cells.

[00:01:17]So, uh yeah, that one is out. Um it's really sad that um I just I can't believe it now. Like I'm I'm She's like, "Do you want to know the gender of that one?"

[00:01:31]I'm like, "Sure." And the first thing I thought of was like when I was I was telling my husband about it, I said that I said the gender that I just knew it was going to be. And sure enough, it and when I looked at the report, it was a gender. It was the gender. Um so that uh you know and I they were like oh you can go to genetic counseling or call the number and have them really explain to you but you know having having a ton of and having way more I mean we're talking highly mosaic like really bad. So that embryo is a girl and I had a feeling it was I just knew it was a girl. I just knew it.

[00:02:28]Really sad. And you know, and I'm trying not to cry because I was so I was like, I don't even care about myself anymore. I got these two babies and and and we're just going to, you know, forget my own egg retrieval.

[00:02:44]I've got two great embryos and we're going to do this and everything and to to have one be so abnormal, you know.

[00:02:58]So, um yeah, and they couldn't even they couldn't even get a reading on the chromosomes, I don't think, because of the mo so the mosaic nests whatever of it all. So, I don't have a chromosome count on that one, you know. And um the whole point of this testing was to get an embryo with 46 chromosomes.

[00:03:25]So, the second embryo was tested, and I don't know which one again. I I it it I I I could probably go back and see what it was, but um the second embryo they could get no result on.

[00:03:44]And so they did the biopsy, they sent it in, and I have no answers.

[00:03:51]I have nothing. I have no information whatsoever. I have no gender. I have no chromosome count. I have nothing.

[00:04:00]and I think it was due to an inadequate biopsy.

[00:04:06]So then my question, so then she's telling me all this, so I don't know what you want to do. And then she said, we can retest the no result embryo risk there, which is the risk in the beginning of it all is, you know, it not surviving that second biopsy.

[00:04:26]Um but again going back to the whole point of this testing is to see if they are normal to begin with. So the you know I'm not going to perform the test and go well just whatever you know what goes go you know like no no I need to know if they're 46 chromosomes and if they're compatible with life and so you know yeah if it risks it that's that's horrible and sad but it's the same thing as transferring an abnormal chromosomally and genetic genically abnormal embryo and having it come out, you know, a couple weeks later in a bad way. I'm not going to do that. I just can't do that. I cannot do that. Now, there's no guarantee. I could, you know, transfer a perfectly 46 chromosome, beautiful, perfect embryo and still have that experience.

[00:05:35]But if I can do something to avoid um a bad situation, I'm going to. And I just, you know, I'm just I'm just I'm really upset about this. I really thought this was not a slam dunk, but I really thought that I was getting somewhere and I really thought I had hope, especially in the midst of losing my job and having Eddie, our dog, um, hanging by a thread, you know, needing liver surgery that we absolutely cannot afford. And, you know, it's just things are not so great right now. But I do believe that God will provide. I do believe that he will hear our prayers and that he has got he that he has us in his hands. And I will be putting my faith and my hope and my trust in God to deliver us from Eddie's health issues.

[00:06:39]Maybe I'll get a good egg of my own if I just keep going.

[00:06:44]And I pray to God that this second embryo is retested and comes out to be completely normal, viable, and results in Hannah's brother or sister. So, I am keeping hope and faith because I just I'm not out yet. And you know, when when things go wrong like this, it makes me want to fight even harder because I I just I have a hard time taking no for an answer sometimes. You all know me. I just really believe I just really believe that something is coming. So, I'm not going to, you know, I'm not going to be foolish about anything either, I guess.

[00:07:26]You know, so anyway, so those are the results. Um, they're not good. One abnormal and one inconclusive. So, hope there. There is still hope there. So, I wrote them back and I said, "Do I have to pay again because of the inadequate sample? Like, I should not have to pay for this again. If they do make me pay for it again, I'll I'll do that because I still have hope that that baby's going to come back and it's going to be health. It's going to be a healthy, normal embryo and and that it's going to be my my child." So, all right. Okay.

[00:08:05]Well, anyway, I you know, I ask that you all would pray for me and and this little baby and this little baby embryo that it's okay and that it's, you know, going to going to be going to be, you know, good. So, so that's it for the biopsy update. Not the news I thought I was going to get. I really thought it was I just didn't think it was going to be that way. But then again, I'm not entirely shocked or surprised either.

[00:08:37]So, okay. Well, that's it for this biopsy report, and I will uh let you know as soon as I find out anything about sending the embryo back to Cooper and what happens from here. So, I will let you know as soon as I find out. And that's it for now. And I will talk to you soon. Bye.
