SANUS: your journey to parenthood

Good evening Radka and Anna,

I just wanted to let you know that R. is doing really well — he’s already 7 months old as of 17/04/2024! He keeps babbling non-stop and is very tall, well above the growth charts.
I’m sending you some photos.

We would like to share our wonderful experience at the Sanus clinic during our fertility journey with double donation. It was the second transfer, in February 2024, that was successful and made our dream a reality.

We are now the proud parents of a beautiful baby girl, Gena, who was born on 5 October 2024, and we are overjoyed.
We were incredibly fortunate to have Anna as our coordinator — we are deeply grateful to the entire team for their support, professionalism, and exceptional dedication, which helped me fulfil my dream of becoming a mother.
Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts!

I would like to sincerely thank Anna, Radka, the doctor, the lab technicians, the care assistants, and the nurses. We received a perfect welcome during each of the four stays we had. The country is beautiful, and the team is truly excellent — always smiling, polite, and professional. A special mention goes to Anna and Radka, who both speak perfect French.

After a long five-year fertility journey in France —

1st IVF: one embryo transferred, ectopic pregnancy.

2nd IVF: two embryos transferred, one implanted but had Trisomy 18.

3rd IVF: five embryos, three miscarriages.

4th IVF: one embryo transferred, ended in miscarriage again.

After all of this in France, I decided to go to the Czech Republic. I had several contacts and immediately felt a good connection. In France, the waiting times for egg donation were too long for my age. Sanus clinic responded quickly, and I completed all the paperwork.

5th attempt: 4 embryos, two miscarriages with egg donation.

6th attempt: thanks to double donation, the clinic identified the cause of the miscarriages. They transferred two embryos, followed by a frozen embryo transfer with one — and that’s when my little miracle arrived.

I am truly grateful to this clinic. It doesn’t feel like a baby-making factory, unlike some places in other countries.

Exactly one year ago, we were spending our last few days in Hradec Králové — but above all, we were about to experience a magical and long-awaited moment: the transfer of two of our embryos, with the hope that we might finally become parents.

Those last days in the Czech Republic were also the culmination of six months of preparation — searching for the right destination, finding the clinic, compiling our medical file, choosing the donor, and organising the entire trip. In other words, six months of continuous exchanges with Michaëla and Radka — without whom none of this would have been possible.

Then came the anxious wait for the famous Day 14 and the blood test that would confirm whether we were pregnant. Another unforgettable day, when the two of us discovered the result — a wave of emotion and tears that has since changed our lives forever.

That was followed by eight “magical” months of pregnancy — without complications, yet filled with regular check-ups and, of course, the constant fears of something going wrong.

Today, we are profoundly grateful to the entire medical team at SANUS for the incredible work they’ve done, and especially to Michaëla and Radka — our two coordinators — who were always there for us, always available to answer our questions, to support us, and above all, to reassure us in moments of doubt.

Thank you as well to you, our little fairy — our little stork — who has filled our lives with joy by bringing us these two precious treasures, who make us proud and happy parents every single day.

Finally, a heartfelt thank you to the association Les Cigognes de l’Espoir, for helping us believe in this dream and for connecting us with such wonderful people.
