    Smile Travelling the Egg/Embryo Donor Path

    Hi my name is Shazz

    I am new to this so hopefully I am in the right place.

    My husband Gordon and I (married for 5 yrs in relationship together for 25) have just gone through a frozen embryo cycle unfortunately it was unsuccessful.We are devastated as we only had one good embryo that went through blastocyst stage. IVF have suggested that we seek an egg/embryo donor as I would not produce enough good eggs to produce a pregnancy due to my age. I am 46 years of age (geez I only look 35) and Gordon is 51 (he too looks much younger!!) lol.

    You may be thinking why didn't they start a family long ago and rightly so!!!! We have been a 'romance' couple believing we only needed our friend's children. We are Auntie, Uncle and Godparents to many and we adore children.

    I am a social worker in a hospital and my husband is a librarian in a law library. We own our 'purple' house in the Inner West in Sydney.

    We understand the process for donation is a very emotional one.
