A bit more about us...

If you are out there, looking to donate your eggs to a loving couple, please read our story and see what you think...

My DH and I are aged in our early-mid 50's, live in a wonderful suburb of Melbourne and have a lovely, comfortable home, 2 dogs and a cat, whom we love dearly and spoil to no end, as they are like our children...LOL

We met and married later in life (almost 6 years ago), when neither of us was looking and then boom- we fell in love and that's how our love story began...

My DH has a son from a previous relationship and he lives independently now, but did live with us for a while and I think, having him in our home for several months, re-kindled my maternal urges. (would you believe, he is 25!)

When we were first married, we were just busy enjoying each other and enjoying life and having a child was not part of the equation (due to our ages). However, as time passed, I became more and more maternal and the thought of being childless and remaining childless is not one I want to think about...ever since I was a little girl, I dreamed that I would be a mum one day and have lots of babies, but life doesn't always deliver what you think you want or need and so, our journey in finding a kind and generous egg donor begins...I know you are out there...it is just a matter of time before we meet...

Throughout my professional working life, I have devoted by entire career to helping families in need, by lending a hand, a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on or by simply just being there. I love babies and children and relate to them very well, in fact, some of my friends and new mums often comment on the way children and babies warm to me and feel comfortable in my arms or in my presence.

About 4 and a half years ago, I lost my darling dad and his death affected me so much, that having a baby was the last thing on my mind. By the same token though, I think my dad's passing also reinforced my maternal urges. I was very close to my dad and I miss him every single day and I talk to him all the time...
I believe in the after life and I know that he can hear me and he listens and works very hard in communicating with me. (don't worry, I'm not losing it or hearing voices!) I know this because of the number of times my prayers have been answered (I pray to God too of course).

Because my DH already has a child, his need to be a parent is not as strong as mine, however he is 100% supportive of my desire- he just wants me to be happy and as our ad states-

"Our life is complete in every way, except for the joy of holding that special infant in our arms and sharing this joy with our family and close friends."

If my words have touched you in some way and you think you are interested in helping us realise our dream, please contact us via PM or writing to our PO box number enclosed in our ad.

Thank you for reading this and God bless.

Hello Yue Min Che and thanks for noticing my post. You are special too and I wish you best of luck in finding your special angel donor too !

Well Aqua28,

All I can say is

"Good for You". I think it's great that you are trying to have a baby 'at your age'! Don't be offended; I had it all the time.....had my first baby at 44 and am still trying to have another at 47....
Some people seem to think that it is the wrong thing to do. I remember having one friend say," How on earth did you cope with having a baby at your age." Well, as I hadn't had any at any other age, it was perfectly normal and wonderful!

But I don't and I wish you every success and that that special person comes along very soon to help you.

Be strong and keep going

....believe .....and talk to your dad about it....he will help.

Keep us posted!

Hello Eggie2 and thanks for the vote of confidence!

I know exactly what you mean, some people will think it is the wrong thing to do, but I don't, because as you say, 'as I hadn't had any at any other age', then it would feel perfectly normal and wonderful...at any age! (within limits, of course).
For example, I would not even contemplate the thought if I was 2-3 years older, but then again, who am I to judge anyone else?
The important thing is how you feel and what you can offer to a child, once you bring him or her into this world. (We even tried going down the path of adoption, but that too did not work for us.

So, after consulting our ivf specialist and knowing this is the only way, we thought, "it is now or never", and decided it has to be now.

Good on you eggie2 for persevering and wanting to have another child now. I wish you and your family the best of luck in realising your dreams!

warm regards, aqua

I have been told that aqua has found her egg donor

. That is such fantastic news and we all here wish her the very best as she continues her amazing journey. I will close this thread for her now, so that others can search for their donor angels.
