Donor 4260 success

Hi there! Just had our first iui this morning using donor 4260. His motility was great! 65% according to our RE. so hopes are high! Anyone out there have success with this donor? Hoping to hear success stories to get us through this two week wait!
Comments
I just had a baby boy on 5/16/2017 with this donor, and he was big...8lbs 12oz approx a week early on DD. He is now almost 4 mo, and he is still very big boy.... 20lbs, wearing 9mo clothing. Very tall. He has blue eyes, and born with alot of hair black/brownish. (I also had alot of hair as an infant, so this could be just from my side). I remember reading on other threads with this donor that other children were also big.
We have a daughter with donor 4260. She is nearly 18 months old and has blue eyes and curly blonde hair. Although she looks a lot like my wife, she also looks very similar to the single image provided of the donor. I am interested in joining (or starting if it doesn't exist) a forum/group for people who have used this donor so we can share photos or updates on their development over time. I find this forum a little hard to navigate and find what I am after... plus I keep loosing my password! A faster way to connect would be desirable! Thoughts on a private facebook group or sharing emails and having an email contact list? It would be interesting to know if anyone lives close to us in case we ever want to meet up in the future.
Let me know if you are interested in joining a group specifically for parents that have been successful with donor 4260.

My wife had IUI done with donor 4260 15 days ago and tonight, after 4 continuous months of trying, a small fortune, and a ton of anxiety we FINALLY got our BFP on a 3 different HPTs. We will be having blood work done within the week for conformation. Just FYI for those considering this donor, this was only our 3rd try with this donor, as our very first donor became unavailable. I have been on this forum since the beginning of our journey and I am so excited to have this platform to tell someone, since we will be waiting awhile before telling family. Baby Dust to all!!
Thanks for the good vibes. We did get our positive confirmed and my wife is officially pregnant using donor 4260. Due early May 2019. Are y'all doing your IUI through fertility specialists or just OBGYN? November is quickly approaching, how exciting!!
I will continue to update during the IUI process.
I wanted to give everyone an update. My wife and I went in for our first Dr. Visit today at 8 weeks. We had our first ultrasound and confirmed TWINS. Both are looking good with 170 BPM. Due date is May 7th, with the expectation that they will be born approx 4 weeks early, due to being multiples...so April 2019 babies. We have another appt in two weeks for blood draw and should find out the sex of them around that time. Good luck to those trying and I would love to connect with other donor 4260 parents.
I know only a few people read this, but in case any other 4260 parents log on, I'll keep updating. My wife had her 14 Week ultrasound and both twins look great. Her belly is really starting to grow now!! We did the genetic testing at 10 weeks and found out it twin girls!! We are over the moon excited...all genetic testing came back great too. My wife is a carrier for one gene but the donor isn't (so no worries) and Fairfax was great about communicating with our doctor's office..looking good so far. We will announce in the coming weeks on social media and are relieved bto have made it to the second trimester!! Can't wait to hear from others!!
