Surrogacy Poll

[mfejzo]

Hi. My twin girls via surrogacy following a disastrous HG pregnancy, are now 6 years old and I am so grateful every day. As I am running the genetic study of HG and am on a quest to figure out the cause of HG, I was wondering if those of you who also pursued surrogacy could answer these 3 questions re your surrogate pregnancies, which may help us understand HG better:

1. How many eggs and embryos did you produce in 1 cycle?

2. Were you nauseous during the egg stimulation process?

3. How was your surrogate's pregnancy with respect to nausea (please state whether with singleton or multiples?

Thanks for your time!

This was stickied in hopes that people would see it and add input.

Marlena, would you want those who did IVF to answer the first two questions?

[mfejzo]

Yes, I hadn't thought of that-that would be great-thanks!

Thank you for answering the poll. I have a few questions to clarify your answers if you don't mind?
1. Did you ever have an HG pregnancy or you are a surrogate for someone who had HG?
2. How old were you when you did the follicle stimulation cycle?
3. Did you produce all mature follicles in one cycle?
Thank you for your time!
