Third-Party Reproduction

XP: New plan

I received my calendar today for a new cycle. I really like our new plan and am super excited!! We are using my eggs this time and donor sperm (Mini IVF). I have found the perfect sperm donor :)
Since I respond so poorly we are doing three cycles, banking the embryos, with the third cycle we will transfer the best 1 or 2. We will be adding intralipids, neupogen wash, and heparin this time.

I expressed my concern of my anticipated poor response and fear of having nothing to transfer. My most recent FSH is 28, and the last time I cycled with my OE's it was 15, so it's nearly doubled and this scares me to death. Well, when I mentioned this to my NP today she had an epiphany. They recently had a couple donate two beautiful embryos. The embryos were developed from one of their in house egg donors and the couple’s sperm. She is going to check with my RE, and see if she’s ok if they save those embryos for us and transfer those if we have nothing after our third cycle.

I talked with my DH today about this, and he likes this plan as well. I cannot express how much I love this clinic. I'm not sure why it took me so long to make the move!! Thank you @zazu13 for talking me into cycling there <3

DH and I have been pretty depressed since our last failed cycled. This is going to be a long road, but I am cautiously optimistic and excited that this is going to work.
