    Love your channel just found it. I myself am doing donor egg IVF. I did mines in Barbados. Currently waiting in my two week wait. Fingers crossed! You are so right there are so few African-American women discussing this issue. And even fewer African-American donors. I must say if anyone is interested Barbados fertility center has plenty African-Caribbean donors. Wishing you the best. Yes this is definitely a journey.! God

    Thank you for this insight! I am a prospective (black) donor and its always enlightening hearing the intended parents stories-theres so much added perspective considering that I haven’t experienced the things the intended parents have.

    I feel like God is really along with me on the road to becoming an egg donor, well probably He even is the initiator and not just going down the road with me.
    Thank you for sharing about this & will be catching up on ur videos to get more information. Hopefully next year I will successfully complete my application form and actually submit it. ❤️
    God is just good isn't he🥺❤️

    Good morning, I just came across your channel. I'm in the middle of cycle two, which looks like it will be a fail. I've been trying to wrap my mind around donor egg and embryo adoption. As a black woman, I know the pool is low. I'm glad to hear a woman of color speaking on this. I have so many mixed feelings. Looking forward to the rest of your videos. Thank you.

      @SherelleGilbertTV  11 месяцев назад

      Pretty much the same way I've explained things in my videos. Because I've been so transparent about my journey online, my family has been aware of what I've been going through. Talking about it more helps with conversations with family members.

    My friend is considering this,,, but is waiting to hear how much it will cost using bank Donor eggs,,,
    Shes so nervous thinking maybe the mom can come take baby away, or that the child will not even closely resemble her????
    Arent you all curious why the Doctors are recommending all this so quick. I showed her an article where it says most of the time they overlook you alls eggs to be so quick to trash them when in reality they are good

    • @SherelleGilbertTV
      @SherelleGilbertTV  2 года назад +4

      Thank you for sharing! So the donor has no rights whatsoever to the child, so they can’t come take the baby away. I know that’s a real fear and I completely get it. They won’t even know who you are and legally cannot seek out the child. It’s up to the child when they get 18 to decide if they want to look for their donor parent. And as far as resemblance, I’ve seen adopted children grow to look like their adoptive parents. I’ve even seen biological children look nothing like their biological parents, so shared DNA doesn’t necessarily guarantee the child will look like the parents either. So, genetics can be a tricky thing but what I think matters in the end is the love between the parents and the child, no matter how they were conceived. As far as doctors recommending donor eggs quickly, I haven’t seen that or experienced it myself unless there are factors at play like Dimimished Ovarian Reserve, early menopause, Premature Ovarian Failure, or repeat IVF cycles that resulted in low quality eggs. I decided on my own to go this route after one round of using my own eggs, my doctor was willing to try again but I decided against it. So I said all that to say I have seen other steps being taken, testing being done, etc. before the donor egg recommendation and this is based on other donor egg moms I’ve spoken with in the community. I’m so glad you’re invested in your friends journey! She will definitely need the support!

    @TheNiloticEmpress 11 месяцев назад

    You seem so young in this video and I am shocked that you have premature Ovarian failure..That’s terrible,that means that you will go on menopause earlier than others..that’s very unfair.

    • @SherelleGilbertTV
      @SherelleGilbertTV  11 месяцев назад +4

      It’s definitely unfair, but I must note that I have Diminished Ovarian Reserve which is a different diagnosis from Premature Ovarian Failure. My cycles are still regular and I am still ovulating. My ovaries are still functioning so that’s the difference. But I will experience menopause a few years earlier than others my age. And unfortunately these diagnoses know no age which is why it’s so unfair as you stated.
