I'm not giving up hope. I do need to chase up some tests though (that were promised 3 years ago) which will include a fertility indicator
as well as more importantly, check my bone density! That's my other worry...though part of me has the whole
"this is me and I am the exception to any possible damage" train of thought0 -
Big hugs daisy.

I may actually consider egg donation at some point in the future - I genuinely don't want children and I doubt I'll change my mind, so it would be good to help out people who do but can't (if that makes sense?).0 -

I'm coming to terms with it. we've considered alternatives, but what I really wanted was not A child, but DH's baby. We decided very early we wanted no medical intervention to make this possible: i feel very strongly that if my health has prevented me from motherhood it is a flaw that should not be ignored: if I were an animal I wouldn't breed from me. My joking suggestion he have an affaire went down like a tonne of bricks though:rotfl: There are choices: you can go screwy with the what ifs and the pressures or you can do your best to come to terms with it if it comes to it. (I admit to getting very hopeful with late periods occasionally).
Life with out children is not wholly bad, not at all. DH and I can spend all day in bed (having done the animals) and we can stay out late without worrying about babysitters. We'll never have to go to *shudder* cartoons at the cinema, or disney, or have the blaring sound of ''ceebeebies'' on in the background. We can borrow friends kids to love and cuddle and spoil, and retain moral superiority of never having a ''Dylan in the supermarket when tired and hungry'' moment(which i don't believe any parent never has). In every life there are clouds, we just have to keep searching for the silver linings....the alternative is to stand glumly in the rain, and I've always preferred jumping in puddles.
Anyway, I'm exhausted to day just carrying around normal hormonal boobs I think ones full of milk might require me to invest in a wheelbarrow.0 -
Oh DB, can't they check everything out for you. I had Chlamidia many years ago which was discovered during a routine check before gynae surgery. So I was terrified it had made me infertile but they flushed some dye through my tubes and told me I was fine, this as I said was maybe 10 years ago long before I wanted kids.
Turned out my ex finance had been sleeping around behind my back the scumbag!0 -
