having put in embryos for quite a few years now, for ourselves and for others...there are a number of costs that the receipt herd incurs that aren't real evident...avg. pregnancies achieved is 50%, so 50% of the cows are at least bred on one cycle later....(lighter and younger calf at weaning)...

bought a supposed char composite online and never got papers

hope you've gotten her in and checked her by now; if the calf is full breech, often the cow won't go into labor; or if the calf is huge and the uterus is so stretched it may not go into a good labor; or sometimes, she just don't go into a good labor for who knows why but our vet will c-section...
