Before I had my son, yes I would have. But since having him, and understanding that beautiful bond and knowing he is MINE I could not stand to know I had a genetic child (children) out there. I went to nursing school with a girl that donated her eggs, she made great money off of it, and I think it is a wonderful gift if you are able to detatch yourself from that genetic link.

Yes. I was in the process of doing it with a company (the same company my sister donated 3 times for) but ended up pregnant =P

my SIL who has 2 kids just did this last year the family now has a lovely little girl. I think its amazing and selfless I wouldnt do it b/c the hormones they inject into you but I give kudos to thoes who do. Little heros IMO.

Before i found out i was pregnant with my son i actually called to get information on it. I wanted to be able to help a family who truly wanted to experience life with a child. Though i was told in Canada it is much more difficult to actually do. That it would have to be a family memeber or friend.

If they lived far, far away and I was well and done with having my own children, then yes. I`m single and would consider sperm donation in the future so I can`t be a hypocrite. although I hear it`s quite invasive for a woman so if it was going to implicate my own health then no...

I might if it was painless and easy, but I`m not sure it is. I think in principle it`s the same as a sperm donor and I don`t think that`s a big deal. So I`m a maybe, BUT I think my DH would freak out if I even suggested it, he`s kind of weird about stuff like that.

I would personaly never do it. the only children that will ever have my DNA will be my kids that I raise. but if someone does it, it`s there choice. I have nothing against it. it`s just not for me.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
