Re: I am going to be an Egg Donor!! - update 4/11/08
I am just starting the TTC process and am facing an uphill battle already. I think what you're doing is incredible. Anybody who has ever, for a split second, faced the very real fact that they might not have a child thanks you and women like you for doing this. I don't think there is a greater gift you could give someone

I went through the egg retrieval twice for ivf and it wasn't bad at all. There was just some mild cramping afterwards but nothing that a couple of advil didn't help.

You're doing an amazing thing! I hope to see updates from you about the process, because I've actually been considering becoming an egg donor myself.

I think that you are doing such a great thing! I have thought about the process too, but I would like to do it after I have had my own children.
keep us posted on how it went, I'd love to know

Re: I am going to be an Egg Donor!! - update 5/8/08
UPDATE: 5/8
I went for CD 3 testing; sonogram and blood test and everything looks good  Which was very exciting!! so now the Dr. has put me on BC pills (to regulate my cycle) and I have another appt in a couple weeks for some more testing and then starting the meds - not sure what the schedule for that will be, depends on the Dr's protocol and the IM (intended mothers) cycle, etc.

Re: I am going to be an Egg Donor!! - update 5/27/08
UPDATE: 5/27
I spent close to 5 hrs at the Dr's office today. I was instructed on how to do injections. The nurse then took 11 vials of blood for different tests. I then met with a Psychologist for maybe 45 minutes. She asked me about my family and what I do and my husband does etc, she then went over the implications of this process. She was making sure that I understood that if a baby comes from all of this that he/she is not mine and everything that goes along with that. I then had to take the MMPI-2 test. Basically a very strange personality test (all true/false) to make sure I'm not crazy I guess  Then I met with the Dr that will actually be doing the egg retrieval and is dealing with the recipient family. She did an normal gyn. exam and then talked to me for a while about any concerns or questions that I had. Now I just wait for the recipient to be ready (probably within the next couple weeks) and to make sure all the blood tests, etc come back ok and then I'll start the Lupron injections (they will have the pharmacy mail them to me) retrieval is estimated to be in the beg. of July. This is so exciting!
