Starting or growing a family through embryo donation is intertwined with big short-term clinical considerations (can I get pregnant?) and long-term medical considerations (will my child be healthy?). Let's talk about how the Embryo Connections team of experienced Fertility Nurses support informed, confident decision making for patients and providers alike.

Jennifer is a counselor, mother of twins, and donor of one frozen embryo. For years she struggled with the decision of what to do with her embryo.  This is the story of the day that she met her recipients and their healthy baby boy.

In a recent survey, 91% of embryo recipient families say that they’ll share their child’s unique origins with them. If you are thinking about if, how, and when to communicate your child’s donated origins, via embryo, egg, or sperm donation, you are not alone! In fact, it’s the single biggest concern of intended recipient parents. This blog explores why!
