Hi Ladies!
IVF is expensive
I'm 41, have 4 kids from previous marriage, 3 with issues, autism, although high functioning. Im a newlywed. My new husband has no children. Found out my tubes are blocked. I want an egg donor due to having 3 kids on spectrum. Makes sense right?
Shady grove wants 30k for egg donor cycle and will only transfer 1 embryo since I've had 4 sections. I cant afford that. And being that I dont have a history of losses, I said to my self, I know first try will work.
CNY wants 9k for donor egg cycle and will xfer 2 embryos.
Im black and 5'2", hubby is white and 5'11". CNY has 4 black donors all 5'7" to 5'11". I dont want a child , if a girl, that tall. So I chose a biracial girl that is 5'4". Hubby wants a child as dark as possible. He's imagining "scary spice", Halle berry, rihanna etc
Now i made a friend, she is black as well, in GA, hubby is white, IVF clinic in GA has no black donors, she chose a white donor and the clinic asked if she "was Sure"
I made another friend. Couple is Asian. No Asian donor at her clinic. So she is going to use white egg donor.
to me. families adopt across racial lines, all the time.
lets be adults, no negative comments, but healthy discussion, for or against donor of different race
