Egg Donation

I'm not sure where most of you members are from or what your laws are but I am from Australia. Here, egg donation is exactly that, a donation. It is illegal to buy, sell or swap eggs for ANYTHING at all. If your found out you will most likely go to jail.

I became an egg donor for the first time last September. I donated to a wonderful single woman in her mid 40's but so far it has been unsuccessful
I am unsure if I will do it again because I feel terrible that the first donation didn't work. I know it's nothing to do with me but I still feel the connection there.

Is anyone else a donor? Has anyone thought about doing it?

You know. I think that it's a wonderful thing to help give the gift of a child to someone who fall pregnant on their own. I think it's great that you did that, Pinky, so awesome

As for me... I don't think I could handle it. Not because I am against egg donation, but because knowing that there is a child out there that would be genetically mine.... it would be to much for me to cope with. I would always wonder, you know? It would always be in the back of my mind.

Mum of JJ was thinking about Egg donation at one point here is the thread

Pinky, I think that's an incredible gift you gave. If you can handle the physical and emotional aspects of it, I think you should consider doing it again.
