Never one to rush into anything....finally I am posting my ad. After 15 months of learning all I can about ED and 16 and a half years on this rocky road to motherhood.
Desperately seeking a bright and very healthy female 21 – 35 yrs who leads a clean and stable lifestyle to donate an egg to a fabulous, financially secure woman from the NSW Central Coast.
:o Hmmmmm, a bit 'out there'...start again....
Here is the short version of my story.
My XDH and I tried, unsuccessfully, between 1990 and 2001 to have a child. 11 years of IVF, natural therapies, hypnotherapy and whatever else claimed to be the answer, yielded no child for us. We went our separate ways five and a half years ago, he has since remarried and has three step-children. I spent four years soul-searching and number-crunching and in 2005 I decided to pursue my quest to be a mum on my own. I had two unsuccessful ICSI cycles last year using anonymous donor sperm. This year, thanks to the DH of a very special egg donor, Angela, David became my known sperm donor. I travelled interstate to avoid quarantine rules and cycled in August this year - again no luck. Didn't even make it to transfer.
I am currently waiting for my 'supply' to come out of quarantine at the end of January. I'd like to do one more cycle with my own eggs but am yet to speak with my specialist about that. I have a feeling he may not be 'on the bus' with that idea - considering my age - 44.
Yep, that's the short version :rolleyes:
I really do feel very awkward about advertising for someone to help me. I'm not one to tug at heartstrings - I tend to head in the other direction and joke all the way. Joking about the most important thing in my life seems somehow in bad taste though. Like every other IP in the world, all I have ever wanted is to be a mum. It's so easy isn't it? Meet the love of your life, get married, have a child and live happily ever after. Right? Well, somewhere I took a wrong turn and now, here I sit. I didn't waste my childbearing years on my career, travelling or living the high life - circumstances just landed me here. Yes, I'd love to have a DH to share parenthood with but, biologically, I just can't afford to waste any more time looking for him. I also have very strong views on bringing a child into a couple's home where that home is less than happy. I want a loving, peaceful and nurturing home for my child and am happy and confident about embarking on this path to motherhood alone. I am a mad gardener and can't wait to have a child to play mud pies with! I'm very much an earthy free spirit.
So, if you're reading this and think you might be interested in helping me on the next phase of my journey, please contact me via PM or email me at suziqad@hotmail.com .
You will be fully compensated and accommodation, travel and friendship support provided. I'm willing to travel to you if need be.
DO SOMETHING SPECTACULAR!!! :)
