Donor #4282

in Selecting a Donor
I switched donors and was wondering if anyone knew the count/mobility numbers for this donor. I'm waiting on a positive ovulation test this week and sonogram confirmation for the right side. Hopefully will be in the Tww by this weekend. Thanks in advance!!

    Just got back from the doctor and I get to try again this month. If I have a positive ovulation test today or tomorrow I will be inseminated tomorrow or Saturday. If no positive test I will get the trigger shot tomorrow evening and get inseminated on Sunday!!!

    Hey Jenna, this is my second try and my blood test is schedule for Saturday. Just a warning, his sperm counts are really low. My first IUI with this donor was 10.1m and this last one was 9.9m.

    Wow, thank you Txgrl74. I really hope I am pregnant. I will find out October 10th. I wonder why his sperm count was low. I thought there was to be a certain requirement.

  • txgrl74txgrl74 Senior Member Senior Member
    There is a requirement. I got refunded for the 2nd IUI. I had a total of 2 with this donor. And one with donor 4810. Do you know what the sperm count was on your IUI?

    My IUI was negative. So trying again.

    Hey Jenna, my doctor always tells me the numbers before my IUI. Maybe you could ask them. You definitely need to know in order to contact Fairfax if the numbers are low.

    Jenna, did the third IUI work for you? I'm trying to pick a donor - it's so hard!

    Hi all, we may be choosing donor 4282. My genetic testing came back that I am a carrier for 2 genetic disorders. I wanted to make sure the donor was not a carrier as well. Coincidentally out of all the donors in FairFax, this one was in our original top 10 and tested negative for BOTH genetic disorders I am a carrier for. So we may choose him to follow fate. Just some questions on his sperm count. Did you purchase the ICI or IUI vials? Has anyone had success with him? I asked Fairfax and he has 1-5 reported pregnancies. Any info will be appreciated!!

    I also wanted to include this story from a blogger who used donor 4282. Even though her experience was a little different since she is older and did IVF and had success.

    Did anyone ever have any luck with donor #4282?? I have ordered 2 vials of ICI and am hoping to have IUI on 2/18 or 2/19.

    Had our first IUI ever with this donor today; very nervous especially after reading a couple of comments on here about potentially low sperm quality, but he had over 24 million motile cells so we'll take it! Fingers crossed, so excited.

    Hello everyone. I have a 14 month old after using donor 4282. I have had many miscarriages and failed attempts to conceive so I assumed this would be the only child I would have. I recently consulted with a fertility doctor, and he believes I may still be able to have another child. I would love my baby to have a sibling but 4282 is no longer available and is listed as inactive. Does anyone have any unused vials that they would be willing to sell to us? My understanding is if they are at Fairfax Cryobank, they simply need to be released, but if they are being stored elsewhere, we would need to do a transfer of ownership. I am willing to work with any of you if you have unused vials and would consider letting us purchase them. Thank you.

    Hello everyone. I have a 14 month old who was conceived using donor 4282. After her birth, I assumed she would be my only child given my history of miscarriages and inability to conceive, and age, but I recently consulted another fertility doctor, who thinks I may be able to have another child. I would love to give my baby a sibling, but 4282 is no longer available and is listed as an inactive donor. Does anyone have any unused vials that they would be willing to sell us? My understanding is that vials stored at Fairfax Cryobank can be released for resale, and vials stored at another facility will require a transfer of ownership. We are willing to work with anyone who may be able to help us. Thank you.
