wow how exciting! i think you're an amazing person to do this
please keep us updated on everything that happens, i'd love to hear all about it. well done!
Congratulations hun what a wonderful thing for you to do for someone. I think you are amazing to give such a precious gift. I too will be very interested to see how you go.
well done on making that decision - it's a huge thing to do for someone and i admire you for making the decision.
just want to ask that you keep in mind that being an ED, you won't necessarily be able to donate immediately, even if you have decided the timing is right for you. there are things in place to ensure that your family is completely finished, and i'm not sure if you have to wait a certain amount of time after your youngest child is born. there are also some pretty heavy duty meds involved - if you are BF, they may not be able to be used. perhaps find out from your recipient which clinic she is dealing with and give them a call to see what their policies are...
Wow thats amazing! Im thinking of donating eggs as I am well and truly finished my family and think while Im young why not help other people have the babies they desperately want. Ill be watching your journey. Great work PW!
Oh wow - I'm so happy for you! Please keep us posted throughout the process. This is something I dearly wanted to do but my current health situation has now ruled it out forever. I'm gonna have to live vicariously thru you!
That's so kind of you - I have also decided to do this for a friend of mine, and am about to commence counselling.
As a couple of people have mentioned, there are some heavy duty hormones that you need to inject, and you need to be put on the full pill beforehand, which means you need to stop breastfeeding. I have only just got my period back, (after 8.5 months of breastfeeding) which is also necessary to start the donor process.
I took myself to my Ob for her objective opinion, in relation to my health and suitablity for donating eggs as I am 37 and my baby is now only 10 months old - I would recommend this for you too, as if your body isn't ready yet, then your Ob will give it to you straight.
It's a wonderful thing, and I applaud you for wanting to do this for a stranger, but you need to make sure now is a healthy time for you and your baby too.
