Donor Egg Support Conversations
Are you considering donor egg IVF and feeling overwhelmed? For soul led women on a donor egg pathway to parenthood. Honest and heart felt conversations, diving into all of the topics around donor egg ivf and what it means to parent a donor egg conceived child.
Your host is Adele O’Connor, fertility coach, hypnotherapist, counsellor and podcast host.
When women seeking to create family after years of heartbreak, grief and disappointment find themselves facing the loss of their own eggs and genetics and new challenges navigating the donor egg pathway she helps to fast track their knowledge with mind body connection strategies and a healing pathway. Her clients refer to her as a torchbearer for women on a donor egg pathway.
Adele hosts and produces a pioneering podcast lifting the veil of secrecy on all topics donor egg ivf.
Her mission is to share real stories from real women navigating family creation via egg donation.
She advocates and educates for families to have full transparency about their child’s conception story.
My wish is for these brave and courageous families to feel a sense of celebration and eradicate shame and secrecy and the stigma around donor egg third party reproduction.
Supporting families with the emotional part of this journey not only helps the parents but in turn helps our future children conceived via egg donation to feel proud of how much their parents wanted them and to celebrate their conception story.

Donor Egg Support Conversations
65. Hindsight reflections: What's really important when choosing an egg donor?
In this episode, we delve into the critical considerations for selecting an egg donor and understanding genetics.
Reflecting on my own journey, I share practical advice and offer reframes on common fears about donor selection and genetic traits.
The conversation also covers the influence of epigenetics and the impact of the intended parent's environment on the baby's development.
Key Learnings:
- Genetics Uncertainty: Understanding that genetics are unpredictable and choosing a donor with similar traits doesn't guarantee your child will resemble you.
- Epigenetics Impact: The unique chemistry of the intended parent carrying the child plays a significant role in the baby's development.
- Child-Centered Approach: Emphasizing the importance of selecting a donor with young age and good health, and considering the benefits of an open ID or known donor.
