    Hi all,

    I'm a long time poster (not in this section) but I'm going anonymous for this one.

    I'm a 43 year old man,my partner is 44 year old woman.We got together in our late 30s and only discussed having a child a year or so later.Its not the be all and end all for us but we do want one we think!

    Over the course of the last 4 years we had two natural pregnancies which ended in miscarriage (14 weeks and 7 weeks) we also had two unsuccessful rounds of IVF.

    We're thinking of egg donation but don't really know much about it.Does anyone have any experiences good or bad with this? Did you do it here or abroad? So many questions....any help or guidance genuinely appreciated. Thanks!

    You could get in touch with the likes of instituto bernabeu in Spain, I sent them an email and they sent me an excellent amount of easy to understand information and very helpful with any questions I had. The Irish clinic we dealt with weren’t very informative on the subject unfortunately

    Did you go with Instituto Bernabeu? We got information on egg donation yesterday and this was one of the options.

    Hi, myself I know a few ladies with IVF DE success. They underwent treatments in Europe cos of more affordable prices. Czech, Spain, and Poland offer high quality IVF DE in pocket-friendly prices. You need to do your research to know what clinic will be the best choice for you.

    Sorry only noticed this now, yep we went with them but had no success unfortunately. Very good to deal with though

    We’ve decided to accept defeat, nearly 40 thousand euro borrowed over 3 years and no luck so it’s time to just be happy we were blessed with our one little fella! Best of luck to y’all with your efforts

    unfortunately, ttc journey is emotionally and financially draining. Happy to know you are happy with your decisions and enjoy your life.

    Sorry to hear that. We ended up going with them too and found them very good to deal with
