Donor Eggs -- how long did it take?

Anonymous
If you used donor eggs, how many cycles did it take before you had success? I have had a horrific 4+ years of trying for #1. After multiple cycles of failed implantation, an ERA showed window was off. By then eggs were done (had 2 pregnancies but both ended in miscarriage) so I have moved on to donor egg/donor embryo.

I was able to adopt 3 high quality embryos that my clinic said would have 70% success rate. I figured good embryo + ERA proven protocol would = easy success. Of course Im sitting here on the heels of a negative beta from the first FET.

I have 1 3AA and 1 4BB embryo left. My wtf appt is this coming week and I expect my RE to say Im sorry but you were the unlucky 30%, lets stay the course. What can I ask, what else can be done? I am so frustrated.

2nd cycle with embryos from the same donor, frozen donor eggs. We did ERA after the first donor cycle failed, it showed that I needed one extra day of progesterone and that worked. I must say that after 5 failed OE transfers I was shocked when the first donor cycle also failed.
Wish you good luck, OP.

There are so many variables it's hard to know what the odd are.. but I got pregnant on the first time.

For me it was first time. I had previously transferred one of my own pgs tested and that didn't work...no rhyme or reason for this one to work.

Mine worked first time, but embryo was tested and normal. A little less more than half were normal so if we hadn’t tested there was a good chance it would not have worked the first time.

Mine worked the second time. second/different donor.

OP here, thanks for your replies.

Since there are only 2 embryos and each FET costs $, I asked my RE if he would consider putting both back. He said yes. I feel like the time delays are wearing. If this next FET doesnt work the plan is to move to one fresh donor eggs cycle but I still think these embryos have a chance.

I transferred 2 morula after my first failed DE cycle. It worked and I have a single DD.
