Forum: Pregnancy after Using Donor Gametes

How long did you wait for a match? I'm waiting....

Hi there !! totally new to this but thought I would say hi and share our good news! Just had our first blood draw and our surrogate is pregnant !! The HCG level is 179 on our 10 day testing after the transfer. 2 embryos were implanted so we are not sure if it's a singleton or twins? I understand...

Anyone else enjoying pregnancy with DEmbies???

Just wondering how long we would have to wait, on average, for a match at miracles waiting. I've seen 4 mos, 6 mos and 10 mos stories. Thanks in advance for your info.

No betas yet but many positive tests. Hope I get to stay for 9 months! Transferred two lovely blast babies!

I am so thrilled to be pregnant after using donor embryos. December 25th is my EDD. Here I come!!

( loss mentioned) i am currently having an early m/c from a donor embie fet. the first two fets were bfn, but the donor was 29 at retrieval, and had twins on the fresh. 13 have been thawed , 8 have made the thaw and been transferred. there are 3 more left, and i'm trying to figure if i have...

I gave birth to my twin girls in 2009 and they will soon to be 2 years old. When they were born, one of my girls looked just like DH and my other girl looked like him also except somehow different. Hard to explain. Her head was shaped like his, her nose was like his, but everything else was...

Wanted to get a general feel for what people think. What new programs would you like to see on Fertilethoughts? What about ideas for improving our existing programming? All opinions welcome:)

Seeing if anyone has any problems or questions. Good luck everyone!;) :cheers::Here's to happy healthy pregnancies this year! (of course no partying until after!!)

for those of you that have used donor embryos did any of you have an "open adoption" with the donors. By open I mean that the donor wants a yearly update not monthly bbq's. I ask because I have embryos that I was in the processing of working with a family for them to adopt, but we can't seem to...

Happy Mother's Day!!! Next year at this time you'll be holding your LO's close!!! Enjoy!!! Celebrate :celebrate

I know it's not talked about much on here and we're currently waiting to be mathec - to give birth to our "adopted" child. Just wanted to see how you're feeling were, I'm sure I'll feel no difference toward my baby, i was just curious to see if anyone was out there! If you are, contact me...

Hi! lI have twin boys that were the result of our fourth Follistim/IUI. Since then, we tried two more cycles, and then moved on to adoption. After a year of being with an adoption consultant, we just realized in September that we were being scammed. (We thought we were getting the same baby as...

Hi all, I couldnot find information about how prenatal test results are interpreted for pregnancy via DE, esp. blood test. Would you let me know. Also did you also Amnio test? based on donor age? Thanks in advance for the information.

I really want to move on from how we got pregnant...the year of fertility drugs, the constant failure...followed by a decision to use a donor- and then potentially one of the happiest days of my life- the BFP!! (we are 32 weeks now). Anyway- I want to move on from that, and focus on the beautiful...

Hi, Just wanted to share the good news that today was my u/s after 6/w and 5/d...doctor said the twins are "official" and are growing strong! Heart beats and size...all good. This is amazing...everything about finding a great egg donor and sperm donor...to the agencies...and this web site to...

Curious about how many DE cycles (fresh or frozen) before your BFP. Were any other issues detected and treated before success?

Hi blessed Moms and Moms-to-be. I hope you don't mind if I step in and ask for advice, please! We are in a shared risk package, and have had 2 out of 6 possible fresh cycles end in BFN. I know there are no guarenties, even with the high success rates. But I fear something else is wrong that...

Hey there! I am going to try to start a new thread here after reluctantly giving up my strong hold on the IF board. I was part of a group of 10 women who were all in different stages of the process of using donor eggs. Two of us are now pregnant, many cycling and a few waiting to get their...
