Hi all, I've seen quite a lot of posts recently on donor eggs, etc. I just wanted to say that I'm happy to share my experience ( I did fresh donor egg abroad in Spain). Rather than trying to answer them all I thought I'd message and if anyone needs or wants any advice or has questions then feel free to drop me a direct message 💕

Hello, can you pls advise how did it go and which clinic did you go? We are travelling tomorrow in IB for a fresh transfer of DE and although they are adamant to transfer only one, I am not sure if thats the right thing. i want to increase the chances of pregnancy. Any advice you have perhaps if you knew things in advance what would you do differently? Thank you xoxoxo
I did a fresh DE transfer and was surprised that my embryologist said 2 - she was adamant due to my history. I had decided to go with their recommendation - both stuck but then I had vanishing twin syndrome, and one currently healthy 31 week pregnancy x
all I would've done differently is go to Spain earlier - I found it so helpful and really pushed my options forward. I did the guarantee programme which meant I had really good additional testing before I progressed.
I had the same thought, I asked my clinic and they recommended one. They said they would transfer two if i really wanted but I’d have to sign an additional consent form. I think the advice depends on your medical history and age. There were no contraindications for me eg previous c-section, but I weighed it up, and whilst I also wanted to increase the success chances, and quite liked the prospect of healthy twins, the risks that come with a twin pregnancy frightened me in terms of risks to baby’s health, so I opted for 1 this time. I think you will know what’s best for you, do your research and see how you feel in your gut
hiya I did donor too more than happy if anyone wants to contact me xxx
Hi I'm currently looking at DE. Maybe in Prague has been most of my research so far. What clinc in Spain did you use?
I am on my 3rd attempt at Instituto Bernabeu in Spain. They have been amazing
