To start

This Blog has come about because of a silly little side post on facebook....

It simply asked if I would consider egg donation. My initial thoughts where yes but then the questions started whirling around my head.

How does it work?
OMG am I going to poked and prodded within an inch of my life?
Umm how will they get to my egg? (images of a hoover type contraption entering my vjayjay *shudder*)
I am a hormonal mess without extra hormones!

So herein starts the research. I know I would love nothing more than to give a family the amazing gift of a baby. But and here is the BUT I can't go into this in a happy bubble. If I am going to do this I am going to do it with all the facts at hand and with my eyes wide open.

I have personal reasons for going into this, 2 of my very dear friends have gone to hell and back with their fertility. One has been given the devastating news that she is in a state of early menopause, the other has had so many health problems she has left me in a state of disbelief that she can even get up in the morning.
I am the lucky one. I have a beautiful baby girl. If I could give them what I have I would in a flash.
It really has got me thinking. Why, if I can give this gift, why aren't I?


I keep a diary but for this one I think its a bit big to not have feedback So anyone reading this, be honest, say what you feel.
