Hi, I'm trying this board as I am reading your experience as maybe I belong here? Someone who started this board posted in LGBT Parenting welcoming anyone who is doing third party reproduction... I'm doing IVF with my partner and we are transferring her embryos to me. We've been on a roller coaster (haven't we all) and my partner decided to step in and give me her eggs. So it is DE IVF I guess but a bit different. I see people doing FET here and that will be me very soon (early March). I'm on Lupron and BCP now. May I join you?

Thank you so much for the warm welcome! And congrats on your recent BFP!
Oh, and I guess I qualify too because we are using frozen anonymous donor sperm.
