Just to let a you know a few more things that will be taken into account is
* you have only hust recently had a baby, even though a normal healthy pregnancy it is recomended you wait a year b4 falling pg again (i know you are only donating eggs) to allow your body to heal and a stimualtion to get eggs can be very hard on your body
* i dont know if you still are on your zoloft for depression but make sure you bring that up at any medical and counselling consults
* you are still very young and can change you mind about completion of your family. I know you are sure now and thats great just another thing to consider
It may be helpful to think of any resulting child as not being your biological child but rather a child that is genetically related to you. Many people view this aspect in different ways. My sister looks at her donation as a cell that contains her genetic material that has the potential to create life
This is how I see it just didnt know how to put it without offending anyone.
Beatrix- Yeah they know about me being on Zoloft and it isnt a problem for them, hopefully it isnt a problem for their IVF doctor. I can still have children after doing this if I do change my mind (really doubt it though) the reason why they like you to have completed your family is because there is a very small chance that I might get an infection which could possibly stop me from having anymore kids.
minniemouse- Thankyou, I dont know them personally..yesterday was the 1st time I had meet them. I came across their ad so thought id contact them as its something I always said I would do.
The meet up went well, they were so so lovely. They came to my place for a few hrs, felt like I had known them for yrs. Im pretty much their last chance as she needs to have a willing donor by this Dec because then she is to ols to start(they have been trying awhile, have had people that said they would be a donor then they dont go through with it )which is fine as its a big thing) or the couple cant reach them which is sad cause if someone decided they didnt wanna go through with it they could at least say so instead of not answering calls/emails etc.
We talked abit about what will happen and then just everyday life really, they were very interested in DD & DS. DD sat on the guys lap most of the time & the lady asked could she hold DS so she held him the whole time. I felt like I was flaunting my children off to them having them here.
They will make fantastic parents so I hope it all works out for them.
Got my GP's appointment Monday (need to get a referal from her and to see if I need to get the rod in my arm taken out which I would say I need to) then I will book in to see their IVF doctor.
Oh ZEE, ... how brilliant for all involved that the meeting went so wonderfully ... and the start of a BEAUTIFUL journey begins
You must feel so heartwarming knowing you felt so comfortable with this couple ...
I too would if i had a choice choose to not know the child as it would carry a heavy wait on my heart if & most likely be that i would get emotionally linked with the child !!
Yes, would be lovely in your own interest to know if all was successful ... and it would be important for you to know that your most amazing GIFT was finally recieved to this gorgeous & so wanting of a child couple
There are no words to describe what an amazing & generous GIFT you are giving to this couple ... something you can feel so proud of for the rest of your entire life ... There is no greater gift then what you are giving ... YOU are more than a MIRACLE to these people ... I JUST RECKON YOU HAVE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL & SHINING HEART
I am so glad the meeting went well. Let us know if you have any questions about the IVF process or any donor related issues. We are here to help you if you need it
xx
