I'm in the process of donating my eggs to my sister and don't really have anyone to talk to who's been in this position. Any tips or positive outcomes from this procedure? Thanks so much!

    I don't have any experience with this, but wanted to give you some support and say what a wonderful, truly thoughtful and special gift that is.  I'm sure your sister will really appreciate everything you're doing to help her.  Big hugs to you both!

    Thank you! I know alot of people think it's crazy but I never gave it a second thought. I have a beautiful little girl and know how lucky I am and wish everyone could experience what so many women take for granted. Good luck to you.

    No experience here, but my sister has offered to donate eggs to us and I think that's the most amazing, selfless gift ever.  You rock.  Smile

    I think there is a girl on PAIF that used her sister's eggs. Try over there! Maybe she can put you in contact with her sister. You are doing a wonderful thing!

    The process is a sinch - sort of.  It will seem overwhelming at first, but you will get the hang of injections after the first couple of nights and the end soooo justifies the means, hopefully.

    Thank you for doing this for your sister.  Struggling with IF has been the hardest thing I have gone through in my life and I assume your sister's situation is similar.  Your gift to her is so selfless and I just wanted to say thank you for your empathy and courage to do this for her.
