[quote=Anonymous]OP, I have three kids using donor eggs and my infertility was also age-related after my husband took years to commit. I am pretty well situated to give you advice. I was a little angry with him, but only about the pain of our infertility struggle. Never about the fact that I had to use donor eggs. I was never that invested in genetics but I am glad that my kids, who are from different donors, are genetically related to each other through him. You have an older child and you do want to really think about the fact that you could give them a genetic connection to each other and you don’t want to. It’s definitely not necessary between siblings, but it is something they could share in this case. You seem very focused on making sure there are consequences for your husband, but not very focused on the consequences to your existing child.

As an aside, I will say that donor egg babies are amazing. I love mine to pieces and rarely think about their genetics. It seems so big when you are going through the process, but then they are born and you just get on with the business of parenting and it’s not something you dwell on. [/quote]
