[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've already had a consultation with a donor egg clinic, and have looked at their donor database, and cannot imagine any of these women as the genetic mother of my child. It's really hard. Would appreciate your thoughts.[/quote] So, when I picked a donor I looked for which of the donors could be [i]my daughter/child[/i] not for a "genetic mother" to my child. That said, it took me a few years to work through my feelings about a genetic connection - not just to me, but to my OE child and using an anonymous donor. Check out some of the blogs for donor egg/sperm children. The genetic connection is not just important to us, but to many children of donation, as well. Take your time with your decision. Despite what people told me over the years (you should be happy, you have a kid; why can't you be happy with what you have), secondary infertility is hard.[/quote]
