Hi Ladies,

I am doing egg sharing in order to afford our IVF treatment and to help a lady out who is as desperate to become a Mummy as I am. I'm young, healthy and don't have any fertility issues of my own so hopefully whoever gets my eggs will have as much a chance of a successful pregnancy that I can give!

Our next appointment will be to ensure all my genetic blood tests and then it's a waiting game to get the phone call saying we have got a match and can finally get cracking! My clinic have told us the longest people are having to wait is 3 months, I just wondered how long anyone else has had to wait? I know it's different for everyone but was just curious?

Thanks in advance :-) xxxx

I am an egg donor and I was told straight away that they had a recipient for me. I am on the South Coast, I imagine all clinics have different waiting times xxx

Oh wow, I hope they're able to get me matched that quick! I'm in the Midlands. What stage are you at now if you don't mind me asking?xx

I donated in November and I know my recipient is pregnant with an ongoing single pregnancy :)

I am going to donate again in March/April; then again if I'm allowed, in summer.

I'm sure you will get matched quickly, there is such a shortage off eggs unfortunately. Best of luck, let is know how you go xxx

Hi Alicat1982 Oh wow what a lovely thing to do! I hope so, I am young, healthy and have no family history of any genetic disorders etc so I am hoping this all goes in my favour and we get the call as soon as possible. I'll be sure to keep you posted. :-) xx
