[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even with Donor Egg there are no safe bets of getting positive results.
We moved to RBA and seem to be unlucky so far despite liking the place and our Doctor. Cycles ended up in miscarriage both times.[/quote]

I'm sorry--that really sucks.  Have you been tested for clotting disorders and immune problems?  Two DE miscarriages makes me suspicious that something else is going on.[/quote]

Get tested but if it was the same donor, it could be the donor.

I got pregnant and had a miscarriage on my first DE cycle on SG's 1:3 program, and had 5 embryos left--was thrilled at first.  Turns out ALL THREE couples got pregnant and miscarried AT THE SAME TIME.  The doctor at first refused to even let me test my embryos, then agreed to that, then the genetic counselor said based on the data what was going on was probably not detectable. . .I fought tooth and nail not to use those embryos even though the refund programs required it.  Two months of tears and they finally agreed to let me move to another donor--not out of compassion at ALL mind you, I think they just realized I'd be pulling out my money, as I'd made it clear I was not putting in embryos made by a woman with RPL.

I realize I went off on a rant about the lack of compassion of the fertility industry, but my point is, when I was seeking support, a lot of the repeat DE failure/miscarriage stories I read involved the same donor--fresh cycle and frozen, both/all with bad results.[/quote]

I realized how angry I sound with SG--I'm actually quite grateful that they 1) have the best refund program and 2) they did come around.  This is just such a tough and emotional process.

Advocate for yourself.  You will get through.[/quote]
