[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After dealing with infertility, we were fortunate to have two wonderful girls. They are almost 3 years, and 4 months old. Our family feels complete, I'm 40 and my husband is definitely not interested in another.

But we have one embryo left, a boy, and it's time to pay the storage fee again or fill out the form to donate or dispose of the embryo. I'm having a hard time closing the door on what could be, on giving this embryo a "chance". But it is the right choice to stop at two, for the reasons above, plus we would have to move with three kids and I love our little home.

I think I'm having a harder time because our clinic used to offer an option to donate the embryos to scientific research. I would have felt like it was going to a worthy cause at least. Now they don't have that option; it's dispose or donate (to another known couple or anonymously), and I don't want to donate - I just couldn't deal with all the emotions involved there.

Can anyone relate or share your experience? Thanks for listening. [/quote]

Donate it to a family in need -- like a loving shame sex couple.   Or use it and expand your family.[/quote]
