Liz Would Like to Know More about Her Egg Donors

Three Makes Baby Podcast - Un pódcast de Jana M Rupnow, LPC

Categorías:

Liz would like to know more about the women that helped her become pregnant with her children. After she lost her baby girl at 21 weeks gestation due to a heart defect, it was hard to move on to another donor. She was attached to the embryos, her baby’s biological potential siblings but the dream of them died.  The clinic kept the information from the donor about the baby’s heart defect and has kept Liz from contacting the donor. Her episode brought up some ethical questions: Shouldn’t the baby’s heart defect be shared with the donor if it could prevent the donor from having a complication with pregnancy in the future? .Should doctors and agencies keep donors and parents apart if they want contact? .The solution to this is to work with a program that has a registry or use the DSR in the US. .Leave your comments below. Let’s advocate for change together.
