Third-Party Reproduction

The Center for Third-Party Reproduction was developed in response to a growing need from Infertility patients, and is one of the first Centers of its kind in the country to provide single-source support in the areas of donor sperm, donor eggs, and surrogacy.

2nd Time Around ...Part 3

So I was ready yet again to go through this process.  My husband, not so much.  I think that he remembered the crabby me and was not looking forward to her return! 
I began my injections just after my 30th Birthday and within 48 hours, was quickly feeling the effects.  Now last time I didn't feel bloated or crappy till nearing the end so this was new for me.  By the 3rd day when I went it for my first round of blood work and ultra sound there they were big and black on the screen (the eggs I mean).  You see when you have your ultra sound you can see your little tiny eggs like black circles outlined in white on the screen and each and everyday they get larger and larger (truly amazing to see).  Last time it was further along until they were that big, but every time is different! 
Like clock work, the nurse called that evening to relay my results...estrogen levels were high so I would be heading in again the next morning.  In most circumstances you'll go every other day unless they see reason to monitor you more closely then everyday it is...I was on my way to being one of the everyday donors!
