Then you know also that the only reason for planting 4 at once was money. They could have planted only 2, and if those didn’t work spent money to implant another 2, and then another 2. It just costs a lot each time.
They essentially implanted more than they wanted to save money, knowing they could kill some if too many “took”.
There is also the “success rate” of the doctor IMO. Implant 4, the doc has a better chance of claiming success. Better to kill a couple if too many “take”, than sacrifice the success rate. I do believe that this taints the doctor’s advice. Our doc was advocating implanting 5. I asked the inevitable question and got the horrifying answer. I discussed with him implanting only enough that could safely be carried and I could in sanity handle. He was not as keen on that. Thus my walking out the door. My attitude was that it was better to spend our money on a truly sure thing in adoption. I have never looked back.

That reminds me. I need to put down some grass seed, and its best to overseed a liitle bit in the realization that some of it will die. Don’t they do that in gardens too? Plant a bunch of carrots, see which ones do the best, and weed out some of the others to let the better ones grow?
