Which clinic are you looking into??

Sorry you are having problems

 

[4magpies]

CRGW in Cardiff is my favourite.

Also going to look round London women's in Cardiff but I prefer what I've heard about CRGW at the moment.

Just had our confirmation email though. It's all a bit scary.

Just trying to research what blood tests are required for HEFA regs.

Hi!

We are just starting the process of egg sharing at UHCW. We have been to our first counselling session, next one is on Tuesday. After that they will begin the testing I think. However, they have told us there is no waiting list for eggs in our area, so we may have to wait for someone to want my eggs. Didn't expect that!

We haven't been taken through what the process is as yet, so anything you can tell me about how it works would be appreciated. How long did it take you from first being referred for sharing, until the IVF actually started?

Thanks, and best of luck with all your journeys x

Hiya I hope u all don't mind me joining.. I've just been accepted at crm London for egg sharing, just waiting to be matched. Can't wait to get started. It's nice to talk to others around the same stage xx

 

[scerena]

staypositve can't believe there is no waitin list for donar eggs where you are! Is there any other clinics near you?

Counselling is emotional isn't it
I haven't actually started the Ivf process yet but I know once you're matched at my clinic after all the testing etc you get going

At my clinic you have to have two HIV tests 3 months apart- but some you only need one- that's the hold up for us- not due another HIV until end of jan...

Basically- it's like a normal Ivf cycle accept they will have you on higher doses of meds to get more eggs, they match your recipients cycle to yours and on egg retrieval you give half your eggs to the recipient

GemH welcome Hun so you've done all your testing and literally just waiting to be matched?? Did they say how long you should expect to be matched??
Gl it's very good to talk to others going through the same process

 

[kazzab25]

Hi ladies !!

Seems we are all at the sand stages, I'm also waiting to be matched, I can't give much advice on the egg sharing scheme as I've not fine thus before, I can however with the ivf but as I've done this a few times now unfortunatly!!!

Scerena, are you deffo proceeding with the process now it still thinking about naturally for a while?

No spots for me was waiting for a letter from
Our gp which I've finally got. Emailed it to the hospital last night so now just waiting to be matched!

 

[scerena]

kazza well I'm confused and not sure what I am doing yet but I do need to phone the clinic as I was meant to a few weeks ago for my nurses appointment...
I'm thinking around 2/3 months see how things go financially aswell

Yay just a match and you will get going how exciting! Hopefully January will be when you start

 

[scerena]

Hope all you other ladies are doing good?

[scerena]

I'm trying naturally until it starts- I have my nurses appointment on jan 22nd for injection training (even though I've done injections)
Then they will get on and match me after my 2nd HIV test at the end of jan- so will probably start feb/march time

You must be sooooo excited!!! I can't wait to follow you ladies on your journey so come feb/march I know exactly what I am letting myself in for

 

[GemH]
