Today was retrieval day and I just want to come on here to say that getting to the decision to use a donor was a huge thought process However we have got 12 beautiful eggs and honestly I feel so overwhelmed with gratitude, now we wait to see how many fertilise. Praying and hoping this will be our time

That's a great number! I've just had a donor transfer on Monday and I was quite overwhelmed as we got to egg collection thinking this woman was in the hospital just to help me, a complete stranger, have a baby. We got 4 high quality blastocysts from the 8 eggs (7 fertilises) and I know now I have a much better chance of success and as you say, so grateful!

Best wishes for your transfer 💕💕
