Today, Ali is talking to proudAF egg donor mama Dani Repsch, who chronicles her infertility journey from IUIs to medicated cycles to donor eggs and beyond. Dani goes into detail about choosing a donor, grieving her genetics, failed cycles, becoming pregnant, and why she and her husband think it's so important that they tell their young son, Nathan, that he was conceived with donor eggs from the jump. She also talks about what happened with their four embryos after Nathan was born (hint: She's pregnant with another baby right now).
