It would be too hard to see my child being raised by someone else. I might donate to a stranger.

donated her eggs so her daughter could
have a baby. Its sweet, nbut I cant help

cause a lot of family tensions. http://www.thenewsroom.com/details/467419

Not sure if it's possible but I would
prefer the daughter getting an egg from
someone else. Only because it would be a
very strange circumstance. It would almost
be your child. You'd know it, you're
daughter would know it. If however getting
a donation from somebody else is not
possible then naturally i would.

Well if the daughter gets the egg from the
mum then what she will have officially is
another sibling and not a daughter/son.
It doesn't surprise me this cases from
nowadays. It's like a baby market. You
shop for the sperm donor, the egg donor
and so on. And people are willing to pay
thousands and thousands for having this
procedures done. It's crazy. Bottom line
is not their child and it's no difference
to adopting. Now that I'm pregnant and see
all the uncomfort and nausea that comes
with pregnancy I wouldn't pay so many
thousands just to be 9 months like this.
Gosh I can't wait to eat like I used to
eat before and having nausea no more. If i
had fertility issues I would just adopt a
child. And I would feel very proud of
helping a child in need. Even hollywood
stars like Tom Cruise, Madonna and
Angelina Jolie are doing it.
This mum is totally nuts btw. She is going
to froze her eggs (that's about 11
thousands in america) and it is about $600
for each year for storage fees. Let's do
math the girl is 7 so say she wants to
have babies at 23 that's 16 years x $600.
+ 11 thousands. And we don't know if the
girl is infertile yet most probably she is
not so keep figuring the waste of money.
That's an expensive way to have a new
brother/sister. Oh and thawing the egg is
an additional 5 thousands.
