I Found Them!

Just yesterday, I wrote about how I hadn't come across very many blogs addressing egg donation.  Well, I found them thanks to STIRRUP QUEEN'S extensive blogroll!!  All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you for pointing me in the right direction!

I am really looking forward to reading these blogs from people that have decided to move forward using donors.  I am mainly interested in learning:

• How they came to their decision to use a donor
• How did they pick a donor
• What have they told their family and friends and what was their reaction
• How did the process go
• Will they tell the child and if so, at what age
• Have they experienced any issues as the child gets older and how others react if/when they find out how he/she was conceived

A lot of these questions may not even be talked about in these blogs, but I am excited to find out.  I feel a little guilty even asking these questions because they are incredibly personal.  Whether these questions get answered or not, I am simply just excited to potentially have someone to learn from and communicate with that has, or is, experiencing the same thing I am going through with using an egg donor.

Don't get me wrong though, I SO appreciate all the blogs that talk about infertility in general.  I have read through a few blogs entirely from start to present, following their journeys through IVF.  Mostly I enjoy reading the success stories, because that is what I hope my story becomes.
