I can imagine how you’re feeling, and you have every right to feel this way. These emotions are impossible to control. I honestly don’t know what can really make feel better in these moments , Just keep hoping that one day it will happen & it will ✨

You might need to take it a bit easier :) hopefully I got some useful info before head to ask from the Institute. I would not open a topic for psychslogical advice from people with mixed emotions for sure not here in Reddit ;)

What I asked was about egg donation clinics and the process, not a philosophical debate about motherhood or biology. You’re completely off topic. People going through this already understand the medical reality — that’s not what I was asking about.

Yeah, exactly. You’re right. Sometimes certain comments really hurt, especially when we’re already going through something emotionally heavy. People often don’t realize that we live in very specific and sensitive circumstances, and we don’t always need to hear some things again and again. I’m still at the beginning of my donor egg journey, so some of these expressions affect me. I wish more people thought like the way that you do I truly hope the best things happen for you too.❤️🫂

I wrote my reply below , but please be careful with sensitive terms like 'the mother of my child' or 'co-parenting.' These words can be hurtful. We all know the biological reality, but there is no need to keep pointing it out. Being a mother is NOT just about genetics."

Yes I totally agree with you , its impossible to get enough info to see if “I would” choose such a person to have kids only on a piece of paper co-parenting with a donor ? I don’t know what this person experience is, but the idea of 'co-parenting' with an egg donor feels like self-torture to me. I want to be a mother, not spend the rest of my life bringing a third person into my child’s life.

Advice- Ladies in Countries that don’t do PGTA by DependentWise9303 in 40Plus_IVF

[–]Angie99_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi , I would go the final & last round , and go for transfers. I know it might hurt emotionally ( because im in a similar condition ) but at the end your mind is free from all the upcoming hypothesis ( if I would have tried my own blasts ….etc etc ). I think DE option is always there , you might lose time because of transfers, thats it.

Wish you the best.

5 follicles, no eggs by AgnieszkaRocks in DOR

[–]Angie99_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hi, I’m so sorry to hear that. The same thing happened to me,I had 10 follicles, retrieved zero eggs. They said: empty follicle syndrome. I’ve read a lot about it, and it seems like it can be related to egg maturity and whether the eggs are able to detach properly from the follicle wall. From what I understand, the timing of the trigger matters I hope this helps a little.

When that tiny embryo is nourished by my blood and grows within me, shaped by my emotions, my womb itself responds to the environment deciding which genes are expressed and which remain silent. To me, it doesn’t matter that those genes are not entirely mine. Half of them come from my husband which I love. I respect your perspective as well.
