Have any of you gotten pregnant via donor eggs?
Hi all. I'm in a rough emotional state today. We found out in October that my tubes are blocked and we couldn't get pregnant naturally, so we started the IVF route. We put a lot of time, money, and hope into this and on Monday I had my retrieval. I'm young and healthy (27) so they were expecting lots of eggs..unfortunately they only got 4 mature and all of them had quality problems and wouldn't fertilize with ICSI.
My doctor has told me if we try IVF again we would likely get the same results because of the quality of my eggs amongst other problems. He said the only way they could ensure an embryo is by using donor eggs.
My husband and I went into this 100% wanting our own biological child..and now hearing that can't happen for me, I'm not sure what to do. I'm scared if I go with donor eggs, I will lose the "me" part of the child and it will never feel like my own outside of carrying it for pregnancy.
Have any of you gotten pregnant with donor eggs? Had the child? Any insight or thoughts on it are greatly appreciated..this is a major decision and not something I ever thought I would have to deal with at 27 years old.
