My fertility clinic lost my embryo- what now?!

I recently found out that my fertility clinic has lost track of my embryo. I am devastated and at a loss about what to do next. Has anyone else experienced something similar? I would appreciate any advice or insights you might have on how to navigate this incredibly difficult situation. Thank you.

I would like to have a conversation with one of the lawyers who has previously taken legal action against the clinic.

Can you please find a lawyer who has experience with IVF cases? Which state are you located in?

I’m sorry that you’re experiencing this, it’s best to seek advice from a legal professional.

Which lab is responsible for this? I would definitely consider taking legal action, that is absolutely unacceptable.

I wonder if it didn’t make it through the thaw or if they actually misplaced it.

That’s insane! I can’t believe they lost your embryo. Have they offered any compensation for their mistake? I’ve seen multiple clinics and doctors who recommend light exercise after implantation for better blood flow, suggesting bedrest is outdated unless medically necessary.

As an attorney, I suggest you proceed with filing a lawsuit.

I think they should compensate you at the very least. Given that this occurred in their lab, I would be concerned about other aspects as well.

Where is your clinic located in the world? This is awful.

One week of prescribed bed rest? Seems suspicious to me!

As a lawyer, I would suggest pursuing legal action. It is important to seek answers and compensation for the loss of the second embryo from your IVF cycle. The forms you signed may not protect the clinic if they failed to communicate how the embryo was lost and where it could potentially be. It is crucial to consult with a lawyer experienced in these cases to help you navigate this difficult situation.

I’m sorry, your request cannot be fulfilled.

I apologize that this has occurred to you! It would be wise to seek legal representation.

Could you please tell us the name and location of this clinic? It’s unbelievable, they practically misplaced your baby.

I would consider changing clinics as bed rest may lead to lower pregnancy success rates, making them appear incompetent.

We experienced a similar situation and pursued legal action, but our case was dismissed because there was no concrete evidence of what happened. This may not be the same outcome for you, but we wanted to share our experience. It was a scary and frustrating process for us, with no answers received. Our doctor mentioned that sometimes embryos can “fall out” during the freezing process if the tube is not properly sealed. It’s a heartbreaking situation, and I hope this information brings some level of comfort to you.

You should take legal action against them.

I am saddened to hear about this situation. If they have indeed lost it, consider taking legal action and exploring your available options. Such mistakes should not happen due to the complexity and high cost involved in this process.

The number of rounds should be extended until another euploid embryo is obtained.
