Has anyone here done, or are TTC using reciprocal ivf? What has your journey been like. I'm womb momma, she's egg mommy.
So far my DW and I have gotten blood drawn and tested.
My baseline ultrasound was on Nov 10 ( my bday) which I'm taking as lucky and I'm now taking a baby aspirin, two 4000mg vitamin D tabs, theranatal core prenatal vitamins, and two estradiol tabs (TMI -vaginally) per day. Soon they're going to check uterus lining. We're located in GA. Any news, help, advise, or just fun stories are welcome and appreciated! 8->

Hi and welcome. We did reciprical IVF. Her bum my oven. We just had our ET on 11/10 so I'm on day 1 of my wait... Feel free to ask any questions. Best of luck to you!!
I'm thinking about partner IVF when we TFAS. C is really nervous about pregnancy and childbirth for herself and I don't mind being pregnant (as I am now). I wanted one of each of us so she can experience seeing herself in one of our kids. I think that's really special. I have no idea how we'd be able to afford it though... 6 rounds of IUI - including two injects cycles - was still half the cost of one round of IVF :-<
