From Dr. Hanna
Winter
• A baby conceived in the winter months will arrive before year end
• Sperm counts, important for IVF success, are highest in the late winter
Spring
• Spring brings for IVF patients the best embryo quality and highest fertilization rates
• Most twin babies are born in the springtime
Summer
• Highly successful months for IVF patients, and in the summertime less oocytes (eggs) are needed to conceive
Fall
• November and early December carry the highest risk of early pregnancy loss (miscarriage), those within 6 weeks of last menstrual period
