  • Leftover embryos: The options
    Sep 19 2022

    'Embabies', 'frosties' - we give our embryos many names, but there may come a time when we reach the end of the TTC road and have blastocysts left over. Today we speak to fellow fertility podcaster Natalie Silverman about how she came to the decision to say goodbye to hers, while embryologist Millie Kanani explains how the process works.


    Meanwhile, Prof T addresses bleeding during the TWW - is it always a bad sign?
