[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t have a sister. If I did, I think I would do this for her. I would not think the egg would make her child my child. I know so many siblings who have kids who look similar. My good friend has sons and her sister has one daughter. When you look at the cousins, they look like siblings.[/quote] I don't have a sister either, but if I did I hope we would be close enough that I would want to do this for her. I have 2 children and I don't think I'd feel strange being an aunt to this imaginary child, but if course there's no way to know in advance. I will say that my brother's DS, who I share only 1/4 of my genetic material with, looks much more like me than my own children do (both my kids strongly resemble my DH), so the stronger genetic connection with this imaginary child wouldn't necessarily be obvious. Also, egg donation in any other circumstance than this is morally fraught and usually exploitative, IMO.[/quote]
