Summary

Hello from Two Melbourne Mums, our seventh episode is in your ears now! We feel so lucky to chat with and hear the journey of Ash (@ashleajade on Instagram) who talks us through her journey of egg donation. She has recently gone through an egg retrieval (after being finished having her own kids) and her friend Kim, is now in the process of receiving those eggs after many, many years of IVF! This story is truly heart warming and heart breaking all at the same time and we wish the very best for these two on this journey. Egg donation isn't often spoken about (or even rarely done!) in Australia and it truly is such a selfless and beautiful act for all involved, with the highest hopes for the best possible outcome. We (Holly & Chelsea) were brought together by our local council parent group and now, we're getting to know each other at the same time you are. *DISCLAIMER* We will be having real, raw and authentic conversations about our own personal experiences and in no way are we experts on the topics we discuss. If you’re seeking expert advice, we would always encourage you to see a professional. We’d love to hear from you!
