I'm so happy for you! I ...Your blog is amazing! I'm so happy for you! I was diagnosed with PCOS long time ago. My only chance to become a mother was ed ivf. I had doubts, many thoughts never left my mind! The greatest fear was that I will not be able to love child, which is not genetically related to me. It's much easier for man to accept this procedure, because a baby will be from him. As it was my only way out, I decided we should try. It was a difficult, but the result changed our lives! I wanted a baby who I will carry and give birth by myself. I wanted to be with him from the moment of his birth, from his first breath. Of course, I wanted baby to look like us. But as soon as the doctor made an embryo transfer, the only thing I was thinking about was pregnancy to be successful and my baby to be born healthy! Now, when I remember how I suffered and couldn't bear the thought that I have to resort to donor eggs, I cannot help laughing. My child is at home right now and every time I look at him, I see that every day he more and more looks like me. I raise healthy and, of course, the most beautiful baby in the world! I underwent de ivf in Ukrainian biotexcom. We asked our doctor to find egg donor, who will have same features as I have. We sent information about the desirable characteristics of the donor to the clinic. We indicated height, weight, hair color, eyes color, nose, face and lips shape. Generally saying, all features we needed. Then the clinic found three donors corresponding to our phenotypes and sent us info about them. And then we chose the one, who suited us the most. Speaking about egg donors and their health. All requirements to donors were specified in the package we've chosen. First requirement is age of donor. All their donors are 18 – 25 years old. Second requirement is perfect physical and mental health. And third requirement is absence of genetic diseases in the donor and her family. So we were absolutely sure in health of our donor. Now I have absolutely no feeling that my son is not mine genetically! No one can ever tell he is from donor egg. We decided not to tell our parents the whole truth. For them we had ivf with my eggs and my husband's sperm. Girls, I wish all of you all the best!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35770630.post-19704514495708702252010-02-02T03:19:20.597-08:002010-02-02T03:19:20.597-08:00Thinaking of you and sending hugs!

I though...I will say you are probably doing great! I thought being pregnant with twins was the worst for nausea, tiredness and general "I feel like crap!" Much more than my singleton pregnancy was. And you are trying to keep up with twins already! That is a feat in itself without being pregnant to boot. And you got sick, ugh! Nothing is worse than being sick and pg. <br /><br />Hang in there. The To Do list will always be long and you'll eventually start bouncing back, but now is the time to rest as much as possible. You won't be able to later. Not that you can now, with little ones, but try.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07843760065614670505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35770630.post-89084834930706436252010-01-18T16:41:08.923-08:002010-01-18T16:41:08.923-08:00good to hear it is starting to get better!good to hear it is starting to get better!Jaimiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00519005240715381712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35770630.post-4332384809701576262010-01-18T12:42:39.757-08:002010-01-18T12:42:39.757-08:00I too found the second pregnancy tons harder than ...I too found the second pregnancy tons harder than the first.
