    What did you do with the leftover embryos?

    What did you do with the leftover embryos you had? With my luck, I just "know" that I am going to have a ton of leftover boy embryos. I have 2 DS with a third on the way. I am tempted to sway but DS is worried that I would have severe GD if it failed (my GD was horrible this time because we were really convinced we were having a girl given my completely opposite pregnancy symptoms).

    You discard or donate to another couple or freeze forever. Some say you can donate to science but there is no funding anymore from what I understand so I do not know if that is a real option.

    It's better to look back on life and say: "I can't believe I did that" than to look back and say "I wish I did that".

    This is basically the reason my DH won't go high tech. He doesn't want to discard them, as we see them as potential children, but he's not too keen on giving them up for donation/adoption either. It's a very tough and personal choice.
