My DH and I think we are going to go ahead with DS after 3 mc's this past year and one failed IVF. He has a chromosonal translocation and 2% morp. We would be using his brothers sperm who has three children himself and we know he does not carry the same condition as my DH. So my questions are:
1. Once I let the RE know we want to go this route what will the next steps be?
2. Will the brother have to get any kind of evaluations done prior to giving a sample?
3. How many samples will he need to provide?
4. I am assuming we would want to try a medicated IUI first?
5. What are the statistics of this working the first time? I think I am pretty fertile since I did get pregnant three times w/i about 6 months.
6. Will we be referred to the clinics counselor first?
6. Is there anything else I should know regarding this process?
Thank you so much for any insight you can give me.
