    My DS was two weeks late, meaning DH leave has finished, and so was in LA when he was born. DD was born on the due date, and DH leave started the following day , so he was en route back from Singapore from that one! So I had them both alone-boo hoo!!

    I like the idea of having kids one day but the reality isn't so positive. I may end up adopting or having a surrogate.

    Gemmzie my sis couldn't have kids and I was going to donate my eggs to her, but she had a full hysterectomy before I had a chance.....I donated 8 of my eggs to two anonymous people (4 to each mum).

    My sister went on to adopt a baby so happy endings all round.....
