    Clinics are begging for sperm donors so phone any local hospital. Its a blooming worthwhile job and you will get expenses.
    You are so unlikely to get a knock on your door with someone saying daddy as you wont be. You are the donor and another infertile man will be the daddy.

    have a look at these clinics

    Go for it mate ive been thinking of donating eggs if you get paid for it. I have PCOS so produce the eggs but cant fertilise them easily. Wouldnt mind helping out some other families to have children. I'd be intrigued to get a knock on my door 18 years later and see how the children turned out!
    Had my amazing little girlie 08/12/2007 - 11 days late! 9lbs 3oz
    My second little girl entered the world 20/03/2010 - 11 days late! 8lbs 4oz
    Sea
    led pot challenge 4 - 332
    Make £11k in 2011 £0/£11000 - 0%
    And lots of other challenges!

  • Well that's not strictly true some clinics pay you in IVF! What I mean is that if you are struggling to concieve naturally and are considering IVF then some clinics will give it to you free or at a reduced price if you donate your eggs at the same time.

    After the traumatic miracle pregnancy number 1 the thought of being pregnant again makes me feel horribly ill. Number 2 will be adopted i reckon!

    you can egg share at most clinics where your treatment is reduced. You howver dont get paid any monies.
    After 9 years of IVF -I'm afraid i've been there and got the tshirt ;)
