[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I would. I have no hangups about donor eggs though.

I have a friend who has one adopted child, two DE children and a surprise 4th OE child. All of them are equally her children and they are a lovely family. I think knowing her has really influenced my thinking about DE. There are many ways to make a family. If you want a third, go for it. [/quote]

Do you not see how the dynamic OP is contemplating (one man “out” with a big age gap between the OE pair and last DE kid) is different from your friends family? The hang up isn’t just about DE, it’s about this particular family. Not saying she shouldn’t do it, just that she’s smart to think through all of the future complications she’s likely going to face.[/quote]

Meh. I don’t see that second hangup as any different than a bonus baby that was conceived the traditional way. Big kids and a baby is magical. It’s very different from having three close in age, but that doesn’t make it bad. [/quote]
