I'm talking about everything you need to know about being an egg donor. If you are a young woman who is considering donating your eggs, first, I want to say thank you for considering embarking on this altruistic journey. Your gift will change the lives of a family for generations. Your gift is truly the gift of life.
I also want you to be well informed about how the process works. I want you to think about having eggs frozen for you at the same time. I hope you'll watch, or, share this episode with someone who may be considering donating their eggs and consider my freeze and share program. ⠀

What is PGT? In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I'm sharing all about Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT).

PGT is a revolutionary test we can use as part of IVF, and it analyzes the genetic makeup of embryos before implantation. This screening helps patients identify genetic abnormalities in embryos, ensuring that only embryos with the correct number of chromosomes and no detectable genetic issues are selected for transfer. PGT can be particularly beneficial for couples with a known history of genetic disorders, recurrent miscarriages, or those undergoing IVF treatment who want to increase their chances for a successful, healthy pregnancy. By testing embryos at this critical early stage, PGT offers hopeful parents a snapshot of their embryos' potential health and viability. While no test is 100% infallible, PGT is a helpful tool.

Key Takeaways:

 - What is PGT? Understanding the basics and the role it plays in IVF.
 - Who should consider PGT and when is the right time?
 - The risks and benefits associated with PGT.
 - Insights into the process of embryo biopsy and genetic testing.
 - Pro tips on how to navigate PGT and make informed decisions.

Don't miss this comprehensive guide to PGT! You can listen to, or watch, this episode on my website: https://www.draimee.org/what-is-pgt

Today, I’m so honored to have Kristin McQuaid joining me to talk about a very touching and powerful topic: support for surrogate mothers and intended parents through infant loss. Kristin and her husband, Steve, started a non-profit organization in honor of their daughter, London Quinn, who was born still at 39 weeks in July, 2021. They named the organization "London is the Reason," and the non-profit focuses on supporting surrogates and their intended parents through infant loss. I feel quite privileged to have Kristin share her story, and the story of her daughter London with us. I know you will be moved by what she shares.

We will be talking about her diagnosis of stage four endometriosis, how she learned about surrogacy, and how she, her husband and their gestational carrier navigated through the loss of London last year. She will also share additional resources for anyone experiencing loss as a surrogate and intended parent. And, you can learn more about “London is the Reason,” and how to get involved.

You may know Kristin McQuaid is a choreographer, dancer, designer, creative director, director, and producer. Her work has gone viral on "You Think You Can Dance," and "Dance Moms." She now stars in her own reality show, "Kickin' it with Kristin," which launched on YouTube in Fall of 2021.

Thank you for joining me, Kristin!

You can find London is the Reason at @london.is.the.reason on Instagram or visit them online: LondonIsTheReason.org
