It looks like he might have freckles from the child pictures. Can you help with this? Strongly considering using this donor.
Does he have any reported births?

    Hi Crayons -

    Donor 13282 does have reported births.

    On his Extended Profile, the donor did not indicate that he has freckles and we also did not indicate that he has freckles on his Facial Features Report. I also looked at our internal adult photos of him and his skin tone appears a little darker than in his childhood photos and I didn't see any freckles.

    Regards,

    Hello Crayons: We got pregnant with 13282 two weeks ago, but it was a chemical pregnancy. We are moving on to IVF with the same donor and are wondering if you got pregnant with 13282, if you don't mind sharing.

    Hello Momo
    Sorry about the chemical. We too are using this donor for an IVF cycle, just start the stims with plans for transfer at the end of the month.
    Good Luck!

    Hi Nurlaw:

    We just started our IVF cycle too with this donor. Good luck to you. Keep us posted if you feel comfortable sharing.

    Hi Momo,

    Hope all is well. Hope your IVF cycle was successful. Last cycle was not successful for us, I am hopeful that this will be our cycle. Plan is for egg retrieval next week.

    We got preg. the first time with this donor - lost it at 10 weeks (baby stopped developing, very 1st preg.) We are trying again hopefully after this next week.

    Hi crayonsonthwall,

    Just wanted to say I am sorry for your loss ( I too lost my first pg at 8 weeks with different donor) and good luck!! We are doing IVF and our transfer will be in the next few days. Fingers crossed.

    Are you all trying with the same donor again?

    Nurlaw: Did you get any blastocyst from your last cycle? How did it go (only if you don't mind sharing).

    I got 8 mature eggs (all fertilized) and 5 went to blastocysts from the April cycle (which now are frozen). My partner, who co-stim with me, got 10 eggs but none went to day 5. We are starting another cycle for her now. I'm excited. Not sure when we will do the FET, but will keep you posted!

    Best of luck to you all.

    Hello Girls,
    We had a good cycle this time, our best so far. We retrieved 22 eggs 19 feritlized, we transferred 3 day 5 ( 1 blast and 2 early blast) and we have 4 frozen embies. My betas have been perfect. We went for our 7 week ultrasound today and found out, that we were carrying twins but one has stopped developing. The remaining twin is measuring 1 week behind with a heartbeat. My re says that there is a 50% chance that this baby will continue to grow. We go back next week. Praying that this little baby is a fighter!!

    Keeping you in my thoughts. Try to relax. Your blood pressure is very important at this time. We just had our FET. Hope for the best for the both of us.

    Law: We went through the same thing with our first try with a different donor (we had multiples but they all stopped developing at week 8/9.). Don't give up. Take it easy and go for it when you are ready. When there appears to be no way, the universe will find a way. Have faith.
