Rebecca • 41 TTC since Mid 2016. 2 miscarriages. 1st IVF cycle 4 fertilized mature eggs. On hold waiting on testing

I’m 41, my partner 32. He really wanted to wait to have children so we didn’t start trying until I was 39. We suffered two miscarriages, one at 7 weeks and another at 19 weeks. Both due to chromosomes. We had testing and neither us has balanced translocation. We decided to try <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> in the hope of producing normal blasts. I had my first retrieval a few weeks ago. 5 follicles, 4 eggs, all 4 fertilized and 2 made it blast. I was noticed today that both blasts are abnormal. 47 XX, +22 this one had an extra chromosome 22

46XY, +17 -19 this one had an extra 17 and missing 19. Has anyone had a similar outcome and gone to have a successful cycle? I think our only route will be donor. I would have preferred to use my own eggs obviously. I’m open to donor - it just seems odd. I can’t pinpoint what about it seems odd. Giving birth to a child that is not genetically mine just feels odd to me.
