Victoria's Frozen Donor Egg Success Story After 10 Years of Infertility

April 3, 2026

Victoria Niño is a mother of two through egg donation and a longtime voice for families building through donor egg IVF. After years of infertility, which she describes in the video below, she welcomed her second baby using frozen donor eggs from the Donor Nexus Frozen Egg Bank, with the open donor relationship she hoped for.

Victoria's story in her own words

"I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the incredible experience I had with Donor Nexus. From the very beginning of my journey to find an egg donor, their team was supportive, understanding, and quick to respond to my needs.

The entire staff at Donor Nexus were not only professional but also compassionate, making what could have been a daunting process much easier to navigate. They were flexible to my unique needs with the open relationship I wanted with my donor (frozen eggs), which is rare to find these days!

Thanks to their dedication and expertise, I am now the proud parent of a beautiful baby, my miracle, whom I love beyond words. Donor Nexus played a crucial role in making my dream of having a family come true, after a very long journey with infertility.

I highly recommend Donor Nexus to anyone seeking assistance in their journey towards parenthood. Their commitment to creating positive and successful experiences shines through in every step of the process.

Thank you, Donor Nexus, for making a significant impact on my life and bringing immeasurable joy to my family."
