    Yeah, it was with donor eggs.

  3. I saw that episode. In her case she had transferred I believe 3 embryos from a DONOR EGG cycle. She miscarried a few weeks later. Surprisingly, one of the embies was still implanted and continued to grow. She discovered later that she was pregnant. That was a shock since she thought she had miscarried.

    The interesting thing to me is that she got married at such a late age to a much younger man and they still wanted to have kids together. They started trying when she was about 3 years younger. A previous donor cycle had failed. So by the time this one worked she was 57! I can't imagine having my first child at that age. But I guess I'll just be happy for them and hope it all works out.
