I purchased 8 vials of 12691 and am on my 2nd IUI awaiting results. I have a pregnancy test scheduled for this coming Friday and so excited to find out.

    Hi Jennifer, i also used donor 12691 for my 1st IUI (5/5/2012) - i'll be tested on 5/21. Let me know about the outcome :)
    PS: your 1st was with the same donor?
    PS2: can you share the amount you got per vial (on 5/5 there were about 19 millions and on 5/6 there were 11 million)
    Stay in touch,
    Sarah

    Hi Sarah, I am going for my third IUI next week with 12691. I love this donor so much! How did your first IUI go? I'll check and see about the millions. I'm not sure. I hope it works for you! Please let me know how it's going and I'll update you as well. Jen

    I think I saw 30 out of 50 million on the paper right before the second procedure

    Hi Sarah, I am so sorry, but please don't ever give up... It's so wonderful that you are having IVF :) I will think all positive thoughts for you and please let me know how it is going. I am so happy for you and hope that it works. I will find out in a week if my third IUI will be "the one" :) I love this donor very much. Not only are his baby pictures adorable, but I really love the essays he wrote. He has a very good character and seems to have good parents. Maybe one day our children will meet each other :) For now only positive thoughts.. :) Take care and hang in there.

    Hi I am trying to purchase vials from this donor. Can someone let me know about sperm quality?

    Hi ladies, I had 2 pregnancies with this donor last year (unfortunately neither one stuck), but I kept my eye on the prize, and my 3rd conception with this donor was "the one" and I'm 31 weeks pregnant today, due December 2 with a girl. :)

    Audve, congratulations on your baby girl! Seems mine will be almost exactly a year younger than yours! :) Perhaps we can all meet up one day. I live in the SF Bay area. I understand you're somewhere in Colorado? My sister lives in Boulder...

    Anchoragebsl, congratulations! My partner and I also used this donor. I'm currently pregnant with a baby girl, due Dec. 23rd. :)

    Thanks audve and nitsrek! Only 9 more days until my due date! Crazy exciting.

    Sorry it took a while to respond - I wasn't able to find this discussion board again after posting for a few weeks but the staff at Cryo helped me find it again. :)

    Audve, I'd LOVE to connect with you! I'll email you offline.

    Nitsrek, if you're interested in connecting at some point as well, let me know. In the mean time, best of luck with the labor/birth next month! So exciting!

    It gives me goose bumps knowing I've found 2 of you who had success with 12691.

    And funny that we all had/have December due dates!

    Audve and Nitsrek, just a quick update: today I'm 6 days late, still waiting for baby to decide when it's time to start labor. I have a feeling it will be Wed or Thurs, but we shall see! Hope you're all well.

    Thanks audve!! I'm so bad at keeping up on this page. I can't believe how close in age all our daughters will be, and birthdays! So crazy!!

    Anchoragebsl! Good luck!! So exciting! I'm getting anxious for our little girl to get here too.

    I'll keep you both posted!

    Anchoragebsl, I've been thinking about you! Thanks for the update.

    Good luck nitsrek...can't wait to hear when your daughter is born, too!

    Annarose "Rose" Grace was born Dec 15th at 12.48am, weighing 7 lbs 9 oz, and measuring 21 inches long, with a tiny bit of barely there brown peach fuzz.

    She was totally alert and stared up at mommy as soon as she was on mommy's chest, and latched an hour and half later.

    I am sooo in love. She's a little angel. Very happy, mellow girl (unless she needs to burp or has a wet or dirty diaper). And a great eater (my milk came in within 2 1/2 days, and she's already surpassed her birth weight by 2 oz, though we're still working on getting her latch not to hurt mommy so much; she's very strong and stubborn when it comes to feeding!).

    She loves to suck on her right hand, so I keep it out when swaddling her and she's happy as a clam. Now I just need to get her to learn that daytime is for being awake, and nighttime is for sleeping. We'll work on that. :)

    Audve, I'll email you some pics.

    Nitsrek, best wishes for a smooth labor and birth!

    Happy holidays everyone!

    Congratulations!!!!! She sounds perfect!! So happy for you! My daughter was also very fond of her right hand and had to get it out of her swaddle all the time :)
    Look forward to seeing pictures!

    Audve, I sent you 2 emails tonight from a different email account - the 1st has 44 photos in it, the 2nd has 8 photos. Hopefully it didn't go to your junk folder... let me know if you didn't receive them. I could swear I sent you photos shortly after my last post, too, but it's quite possible I just thought I did, but didn't ;)

    Hi Ladies,

    Congrats anchoragebsl! Your daughter sounds perfect and healthy.

    I gave birth to our daughter on Dec 21st at 4:32 pm. She was 7 lbs 3 oz 19 1/4 inches long, with a head full of blonde hair! I had a good delivery. She is a pure delight. We love her so much!

    I hope you both had a wonderful Holiday season!

    Hello Ladies!
    Give it up to Donor 12691 for making girls! My partner and I are due Oct. 14.

    Whoa, I can't believe I didn't think to log back in here and see if there were any new replies in over a year. Nitsrek, congrats on your baby girl, who is just 6 days younger than mine! Would love to connect with you if you're interested. If so, email me at bethleber@icloud.com

    There are a bunch of families I'm in touch with via FB who used the same donor if you're interested in that, too...
