[quote=Anonymous]How badly do you want a second child? Realistically it will probably take donor egg to have one. Having used a sperm donor, I will say this: You will love a donor-conceived child with your whole heart just as you do your first. But the donor will never not be there. I think this becomes even more true when your first child is not donor-conceived. It will be firmly woven into your family story and a difference between your children even if you love them 100% equally. So you just want to be really thoughtful before choosing this path to add a second child. I don't say this to in any way discourage donor egg. I think it's amazing. Just to note that switching to donor egg for a second child may be a different calculus than donor egg for a first and only child. If you like the idea of a second child, but don't feel like your family will be incomplete if you end up with an only, then you could just let fate decide - which is essentially what IUI at 44 is.[/quote]
