Hi!
We had DD via DE IVF with Shady Grove (through a bridge program with our Toronto hospital) and we're cycling for #2 this month! We have 2 frosties and currently have our FET scheduled for Feb 25!
Really happy to find this board! I'm happy to share my experience!
Re: Intro! (DE Grad & Cycling for #2)
So did you know your donor then? As in, was she someone 'connected' to you? (I just read your response to my questions earlier)
Welcome!
congrats on your DD!! We are mid-cycle of doing DE IVF. Good luck on your FET, keep us updated!!
DD conceived with no issues, but born at 33 weeks due to PPROM
loss #1-06/2010 loss #2-2/2011 loss #3-5/2011
07/2011 dx with a Balanced Translocation
9/2011-decided on domestic infant adoption 10/2011-signed with an agency and getting ready for homestudy
12-2012-after being with our agency over a year and only shown to EM once we decided to talk with RE about DEIVF. Thru a crazy sequence of events we decided to go for it and we picked a donor MUCH quicker than anticipated
1/13/2013-started lupron with anticipated transfer in mid Feb.
ER 2/15 resulted in 15 eggs/10M/6F with ICSI.
2/18 transferred 1-8cell and 1-9cell embie. Snuggle in little embies.
positive on HPT 6dp3dt. Could this really be IT?!?! Beta 14dp3dt=2440. U/S scheduled for 3/20.
Samidez - no, the donor program at SG is 100% annonymous. We picked our donor from their database. We saw baby photos and adult photos and we have a 10 page profile on her including just about everything I can think of but we don't know her and never met her.
Lacy - We'll just do another eSET - that's what we did last time and it was perfect!
Thanks for the welcome!
Hi and welcome!
I am also a Shady Grove DE grad (from an eSET) and just did an FET of one of our two frozen embryos on Jan 21st (beta is today!). So we've had very similar paths!
