MCRM Fertility

Our fertility journey started later in life, after getting married at 40/38 years old. Being older we knew that we would need some help. We started with a clinic in Memphis, TN, doing one own egg cycle with no success, and moving on to donor eggs. Our first donor egg cycle gave us 2 embryos, and we sadly lost both of them. Then Covid hit, the world shut down, and I gained back all of the weight I had lost to get started a year and a half prior. Being in the middle of a contract with Donor Egg Bank USA, having to pause and crash diet and hope to get my weight back down wasn’t an option, so we called DEB and asked if we could switch clinics, and that is how we came to MCRM. After one phone call with Dr Alhering, I knew we had found a new home. So we moved our 4 embryos from our second donor to Chesterfield. We did 3 transfers one right after the other. The first 2 failed, and the 3rd we transfer our remaining 2 embryos together, in the hopes that in the event that that transfer failed as well, we would have time left on our DEB contract to hopefully get one more set of donor eggs. But thankfully we didn’t need them!!! Our 3rd transfer worked, and on November 9, our son Silas was born! We are over the moon in love, and our family is complete. There will never be enough words to say how grateful we are to Dr Alhering, and everyone at MCRM for taking us on, when other clinics wouldn’t!
