My sister needs me to donate her eggs

my family recently found out that my sister is unable to have children, my mum has asked me to donate eggs to my sister when she needs them but i can't do this as i couldn't live with my child being brought up by my sister and me being known as the aunt. I don't no how to tell my mum or my family and my school work is suffering and as i am sitting my GCSEs this summer thats not good. i realise the thing is upsetting for my family but nobodys seems to see how guilty i feel as i am the one who can have children i just feel so awful and confused on why it is her with the problem and not me

It sounds like your not comfortable with this decision and you need to be.

 As predicted my sister is not talking to me.  But now that some time has passed I still believe, FOR ME it was the absolute right decision.  I don't think I would have handled it well nor my own family.  If this means that I lose my sister so be it.  I would have thought she, as a sister, would understand my decision and that because we love each other this would have been ok.  Apparently not.

I hope you are not getting pushed into this.   If you are think long and hard.  It's a BIG decision and one that may cause heartache in the future.  No one........... not even family....... has the right to take over what is rightfully your own.   Your body, your heart, your children, your eggs.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one here in this boat.  My sis wants my eggs, I'm 32 and she's 42 and has tried IVF 3 times with no sucess.  My husband is against it and I'm scared of harming his and my relationship because of this (he doesn't like my sister).  Also, my family makes me feel so guilty about the situation and doesn't seem to listen to my thoughts.  I have a child of my own but don't know what to do.  Thoughts???

OMG angel you sound like my astro-twin - our situations are precisely the same.  Anyway - I still have bouts of hatred and annoyance that I have to go through this donation thing but I now have more days of excitement.  I have two children and I will not have any more of my own which is sad but I have other things to do with my life.  I am looking forward to having a niece and being very close to it - in fact I think i feel much like a grandmother must feel - having a child kinda yours but not so much haha.  I definately do not think it is for everyone, and I still think there is a (very tiny) chance that there will be some future struggles within myself.  But I know my sister will be a good mum.  And I feel like I get to have a baby again without all the trap(pings).  I guess you could say I'm being a bit selfish too...

Do not do it if anything about it makes you uncomfortable - and believe me, it is a HUGE thing to ask someone.  If they think they can get angry at you for saying no, why are they not asking everyone then?? Obviouly it is a big deal.  good luck.  stay true to your inner feelings, they are ALWAYS RIGHT
