I'd really appreciate some honest opinions on this. Hubbie and I are going for IVF but need donor eggs. We don't know whether to buy them through a bank (we're only aware of the London Egg Bank - are there others?) or go down the egg sharing route. Could you help me decide?
I know the egg sharing scheme would also help another couple trying to conceive, which would be wonderful. But I couldn't stand the thought of us getting pregnant and them not getting pregnant. Raising a child knowing their biological mother was childless would break my heart.
An advantage of buying eggs is a higher (I think) success rate in IVF - very important too. But it's costly and we're already paying other infertility related costs.
Please, please tell me what you think we should do!
