Our Donor Egg Success Story | My Initial Feelings and How to Choose an Egg Donor

There has been a very beautiful part of our story that we haven’t shared until now. That piece is that we used an egg donor to conceive our beautiful baby girl. Egg donation is one of the most precious gifts and we are so blessed to have been able to get pregnant this way. It’s not an easy concept to wrap your mind around but once I did, the possibilities were endless. In this video I will share my initial thoughts, why we chose to use an egg donor, and provide some tips and resources on how to choose an egg donor.
Join me tonight 7/8 at 9pm EST on TikTok LIVE as I share more of my story with my friend and founder, ShaRhonda, of the Every Shade of Infertility Facebook group that I always share with you all. She has really helped me along the way and the goal of her Facebook group is always to help others using donor conception. You won’t want to miss this! Make sure to tune in and follow me at @iamsherriyvette on TikTok. I am going to go live more often on TikTok to provide a safe space to hold Q&A sessions each week so make sure to follow me there.

This made my heart smile I'm also about to a second round of ivf with donor eggs my first batch of 14 was abnormal so I'm using donor eggs and I'm so excited and blessed to have this opportunity to be a mother again and carry this child. God bless you and your family❤

We tried for 15 years before deciding on surrogacy. I started losing faith that it would ever happen after the 3rd failed transfer. Our beautiful baby boy was our 4th and final embryo. He’s 5 months now and so precious.

[@sherriyvette]

Congratulations!

[@whosdatgurlAsh]

Thank you for this success story. Not enough videos are here with the details you provide. So much is sticking with me however one thing sticks out the most. When you said when looking for a donor, choose one that has successful pregnancy. Find our donor was the hardest decision and so anxious. We had two donors on our radar. We were gearing toward the donor that never started the process yet. Now I’m gearing towards our second top option as she already had successful healthy pregnancies. Thank you for this video. I’m happy I stumbled across it.

[@sherriyvette]

@@whosdatgurlAsh You are so welcome! Good luck to you on your journey!

[@Ipsychdaily]

🥹 I just want to say thank you! Our first round was traumatic and I have been so discouraged about trying again. We were advised donors would be the only option. I have been so torn about it and couldn’t find anyone who looked like me, sharing a similar story. I’m so happy for you all and grateful for your obedience to share! 🫶🏾

[@nakeciafuller290]

Thanks for sharing your story. Your videos have been my guide through my IVF journey at CNY. Thank you for giving us another prospective on donor eggs. I learned a lot from your beautiful story.

[@sherriyvette]

Thank you so much for watching and supporting! Praying for you along your journey 🙏🏽.

[@Melissa22-]

Nakecia! Hi I’m looking into CNY too. Did you have a good experience?

[@nakeciafuller290]

@@Melissa22- I’m currently still trying but so far they have been great and we’ve gotten the farthest in our IVF journey with them compared to other clinics.

[@Melissa22-]

@@nakeciafuller290 that’s awesome! Good luck to you! 🙏Which facility did you chose ? (If you don’t mind sharing) I don’t live in NY and would have to fly out for the retrieval and FET but im trying to decide which facility would be best.

[@sherriyvette]

@@Melissa22- I did, unfortunately, we didn't have success there. You just have to advocate for yourself there and try to get specialized care specific to your case.

May I ask the name of the clinic you used for your donor eggs please and thank you.

[@sherriyvette]

Yes, it's called Utah Fertility Clinic.

[@lifewithdeedee3392]

Most donors are anonymous, do you think you ever want to find other parents that used your same donor? Dr Kiltz told me in 2023 I need to use donor eggs. I was not ready to accept that at that time. Oh I'm in that group. I don't follow it much but I'm in there. They don't let you talk about your baby, or pregnancy in there. There was a resent post from a admin saying your post will be taken down, so its funny that's what helped you through the process but it's not allowed anymore.

[@sherriyvette]

@@lifewithdeedee3392 I’m definitely open to it for my daughter’s own info. The group is great we have a really active community in there!
