[quote=Anonymous]PP here.  I can assure you that when you are pregnant, with everything that goes with that physically, you will feel like the mother.

I am eternally grateful that I got to feel my kids moving inside me.  Eternally.  I also know that I influenced their development in every positive way I could, that I gave them the best opportunity to thrive, that my body did a great job nurturing them.  There is comfort and healing and joy in that.

Read up on epigenetics - that may also help you.

The older my kids get (mine are the 4yr old twins) the less I think about the donor aspect.  Truly.  They are learning my mannerisms, my habits, my morals, my language, my family, etc...  It almost catches me by surprise now when I think about it.

I have the occasional pang, of course, but now those feelings are quickly balanced by the fact that these two little people are my kids and they are unique and amazing.  I cannot imagine not having these two people in my world, and if I wish away any fundamental part of what makes them who they are, then I am wishing them away.  So the genetics and the biology and the upbringing all together created these people.  I am part of that, and I am thankful for all of it.
