Things I Didnt Expect as an Egg Donor

• Working with the egg donor applications, and
  creating web content for the site, I thought I
  knew it all about egg donation ! Yet I found
  myself asking a lot of questions, and learned so
  much more as I went through the actual egg donor
  process.
• Here are seven things that I didnt expect

3
I'm a Patient 

• At the clinic, I was referred to as a patient,
  and I replied, Oh, Im not the patient! Im just
  the egg donor. The doctor said, Of course
  youre a patient! Youre getting a medical
  procedure done, and we are going to take care of
  you!

So Much Gatorade 

• They tell you to drink Gatorade and not the
  watered-down kind. I usually just drink water,
  but the electrolytes in the Gatorade are great
  for your body while its in cycle.

5
The Needles Didnt Really Hurt. 

• It was just a quick pinch, but I was so nervous
  to do the first test one at the clinic. They
  had me try it in front of them, so I would know
  what to expect. After the first couple of times,
  it was easy.

6
I Became So Calm During My Cycle 

• Everyone has their own experience, but I wanted
  to be as attuned with my body as possible. I
  paused more often to think, took deep breaths,
  and listened to what my body was trying to tell me

7
People Had a Lot of Questions

• I was very open about my experience, and
  naturally, people had a lot of questions, mostly
  women. My male friends were less forthcoming
  about their curiosity.

8
There Are a Lot of Women Interested in Being a
Donor 

• Women have heard of it, and thought about doing
  it themselves. After answering questions, a lot
  of people said maybe theyd apply since they had
  a better understanding of the process.

9
The Retrieval Was Quick. 

• It was the best nap ever. The surgery is usually
  less than 20 minutes. I woke up feeling less
  bloated with heat pads over my tummy and wrapped
  in warm blankets.
