On March 5th, West Coast Fertility Centers had the pleasure of meeting our 49th and 50th Frozen Egg Babies as the proud Mom and Dad stopped by our office and introduced us to their beautiful twin baby girls. The girls are now four months old and have been such a joy to their parents.

In April 2009, this patient underwent a cycle of In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) with the use of frozen donor eggs. This couple used our online database to search for a donor of their liking. Once the donor was selected, the donor eggs were thawed and prepared for insemination. Using ICSI, the eggs were inseminated just as they would be in a traditional IVF cycle with fresh donor eggs. The eggs were fertilized and cultured for three days prior to the patient’s embryo transfer.

Frozen Egg Bank has an astounding 91% egg thaw survival rate and a 53% pregnancy rate which is very similar to our pregnancy rate for traditional IVF.

This marks a big day for West Coast Fertility Center in Orange County, California, as we reached the birth of our 49th and 50th babies born from Frozen Eggs and ICSI. WCFC developed the Landa Freezing Technology, offering hope to many infertile couples. This technology has resulted in the birth of 52 healthy babies born to wonderful families longing for their beautiful children. Worldwide, only about 500 babies have been born from egg freezing.

Greeting the special visitors, Dr. David Diaz and his staff were delighted to hug and hold the two special little miracles as they smiled and gurgled while photos were snapped. Dr. Diaz commented that the parents are “true pioneers in the field of infertility” for making the decision to utilize the new technology.

We wish Mom, Dad, and the girls all the best and look forward to keeping in touch with them as the girls continue to grow.
