What do you do with the embryo pics

after a failed IVF? DH wants to keep ours but I don't want to. We had so much fun looking at them, imagining which one might be the "one", etc. and now it's just a reminder of the failure. I was hoping to have them to add to sono pics, etc and frame in the nursery. Just curious what others have decided to do after the fact...

I have them in my IVF binder. I just can't bring myself to get rid of them

Re: What do you do with the embryo pics

Ugg... I know I have 4 of them. They're in with my medical stuff too. I don't look at them EVER. I suppose one day, when it wont matter anymore, I will go in and get rid of all that stuff. Just put it away somewhere that you don't have to see it.

Actually, when I switched RE's I actually showed it to my new one so he could see what my emby's looked like. There is some relevance to hold on to it.

I threw the pics away. I didn't want any reminders that my ivf cycle failed.

Re: What do you do with the embryo pics

I never got pictures from my 1st IVF but I have all of the others in the drawer of my nightstand.
