Thanks thanks. I will jiayou too. Hope our paths may cross sometime in the EDD thread.
Kym, i think this decision is surely very personal. What do you feel about it?
To be honest, I always feel I'm rather healthy cause I watch what I eat and do. (ok I am vain so I don't want to look haggard so I try take care of my body. hee). But biological influence to our body is something beyond us and that's especially on our eggs. When I embarked ivf, I was thinking I feel healthy.... but after 2 failed attempts and one aborted cycle, doc told me it's really my age = not so good eggs. She says my womb is fine. I can carry a baby but I just need younger eggs to up all chances. She suggests to me to go overseas for donor eggs. And if I can find eggs in Singapore, then go ahead but it's illegal to make a money transaction for eggs over here. But she also jokes that if there's private arrangement on the $$ part, she doesnt want to know.

My younger sis told me I can have her eggs or her few frozen blastos (can't remember how many she has. But I wonder does singapore allow embies to be taken like that? ) if I want to. But as shared, we are not going that route.
Kym, can I know if you've done any transfers before? Not sure if I've read that here somewhere.
Maybe I say what I will do if I'm in the same situation as you? I think it depends how "bad" I want to have a child of my own. I think that's the bottom line. If me and hubby think we can only feel complete with a child, then waste no more time and I will fly to msia to get it done. Or anywhere that's appropriate. Our age/egg is really one big factor, not to mention time factor. Of course this is provided men's sperms and the womb are issues-free. To me is, if wanna do it good, do the best that will increase your chance in all aspects, when you dont want to play much with time.
But for us, we can live with the fact there's no 3rd member in our little family. So I hope you'll do what you're most comfortable with. And there's surely nothing queer about having donor's egg. It's just another avenue to fulfill your parenthood dreams. Go with your heart and remember all things we do for ttc is mighty!
