How many embryos are a good number for IVF?

Hi all,

I'm in the middle of an IVF cycle and they retrieved 23 eggs during the harvest, fertilized 15 of them, and only 10 remained this morning (the day after the harvest.)

The eggs will have PGD (pre-implantation genetic diagnosis) on Day 5, and they will do the transfer on the morning of Day 6.

The doctor told me to expect that more will not make it to Day 5, and that she was hoping for between 1-3 good eggs to transfer. How possible is that we will have that many eggs to transfer come Day 6? Are we still fully in the game or are we pushing it?

Encouraging stories appreciated!!!
