Has anyone used Donor 12811? He doesn't have any pregnancies that have been reported. He's new so I was wondering if there was anyone that tried this donor but didn't get pregnant.

    I am looking at this donor also and just noticed on his profile a pregnancy has been reported. Did a search of his donor ID on the boards here . . . there has been one reported pregnancy but no births because vials were just released in December.

    They had a pregnancy reported just last week. I'm using this donor tomorrow for my 1st IUI. I'm hoping it will be my last!

    All the best to you!! I'd be interested to hear how it goes . . . this is all very new to me.

    Thanks! It's new to me too. I'm nervous but excited at the same time. It's been a long journey. I'm ready to see that BFP.

    I'm such a newbie, I just had to look up BFP! LOL

    I can only imagine what you are feeling but I expect I will be at that point soon. Having my FSH checked again this month and I believe that will be the deciding factor whether I do IUI or IVF with frozen eggs . . . and of course need to pick a donor but I'm kind of stuck on 12811 right now. (BTW - How may of California Cryobank's extra services did you use? i.e. genetic counseling, etc.)

    I don't know what your situation is but this is something I just decided to do on my own . . . and realized it was possible to do on my own! Been keeping the decision to myself and have only told a couple friends.

    Wishing you great success tomorrow! I'll be thinking of you!

    There are certain types of genetic testing done on all donors before they enter the program. I didn't discuss his medical history directly with CCB as there was nothing on there that worried me. My husband was diagnosed with Chromosomal Translocation and isn't able to have children. I purchased the childhood photos, Coversation, Medical History, Extended Profile, Essay and Staff Impressions. I find it very helpful to read all the posts as I don't feel so alone in this. It's hard to talk to people that don't understand what you're going through. I wish you luck in your journey!!

    I wanted to check in and see how you were doing Hanaheat1. Have you moved forward with IUI or IVF with donor 12811? I got a BFN this last cycle. I'm going to try again next month.
