[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband and I will have to decide this very issue soon - i.e. What to do with frozen embryos that we don't intend to use.  We have looked into the donation route and here is what we have learned thus far.  There are so many more couples out there who would love to go through IVF with donor eggs but cannot afford to.  Donated embryos are a more affordable path.  Shady Grove, in fact, has just started an embryo donation program for this very reason.  Only you can decide if donating your frozen embryos is the right path for you, but, the way I think about it is as follows.  We got pregnant with the help,of a donated egg.  The woman who donated to us did so without meeting us or knowing who her eggs would go to or what kind of environment we would raise our child in.  She donated because she wanted to help someone have children.  If you feel similarly, then, consider donating.  There is no right or wrong answer.  Therr are other embryo donation places outside of the DC area if you have a concern about your embryos landing with a local area couple.  One is Snowflakes, which is on the west coast I think.

I think you're skating over a very important aspect. The egg donor does it for money. It's a woman who needed funds and decided to do it this way.  
Also, think about it, if a couple can't afford donor eggs, what else they won't be able to afford to raise your child? (or your husbands, technically, since you used donor eggs).[/quote]
