[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eh I don't believe they are being honest with you. Not that it matters, but that's more likely a donor egg than a natural pregnancy and they just don't want to tell anyone.[/quote]

FU Debbie Downer! I think that if OP's friend was honest with her about IVF and miscarriages, she would be honest about a donor egg. You're either jealous that you weren't able to get pregnant at an older age or jealous that you got pregnant at 22 and didn't get to party in your 20s and early 30s. I got pregnant within a month of going off birth control at 36, 39, and 43. Never had any fertility issues. Sorry to not fit your pathetic little narrative.[/quote]

I work as a fertility RN.

Almost no-one shares about donor egg.  They don't tell their parents, their best friends in the world, their sisters or even their conceived children.

[b]Almost everyone shares about IVF when it's own-egg. 
But donor egg is an entirely different story.   It is kept very, very, very hushed up. [/b]

OP, I appreciate your excitement for your friend but I don't think it was appropriate for you to post on an infertility board unless you were personally there for the conception. 
You really have no idea what happened even if you know every other detail of your friend's medical and fertility history. 
There are thousands of donor eggs cycles that are performed in the DMV each year and I'd estimate that under 5% of these couples share this with ANYONE outside of each other and their providers. [/quote]
I accidentally got to this forum and then only randomly clicked on a thread. This is absolutely nuts to me for some reason. I guess I have not known a lot of people who have had IVF but half transparency and then a brick wall seems inconsistent, especially with the way people frame “being open and honest” for the purposes of people being able to learn.
