Hello All that are too on a journey searching for their special egg donor.

Would like some honest feedback on how other recipients feel during their own process.

Am I going crazy? (I hope not lol) but since joining the site eight days back, and building up the courage to open up to the world and tell our story I have never been so nervous in my life. Afraid of what others think when they read our story, afraid of PED's never choosing us, and feeling sad when a you put in so much effort sharing your personal life and answering so many questions and then never hearing back from PED's.

I find myself checking the computer 2-3 times a day, in hopes that someone has answered our prays. And when nothing, I feel like I am stalking other people's threads to read their stories. Lately I have also been waking up during the night, thinking about the site and the possibilities it could bring.

Does anyone have any suggestions for me to try and distract me away from my computer? Like some of you have already experienced it could take months and months for somebody to reply, what will I be like then?

Would love others that are searching for an ED to share how they deal with the (what seems like ages) await for that miracle angel

You're not going mad, just anxious to get a reply I imagine Don't lose hope, I'm sure it feels like a lifetime, but it's only been a little over a week and your time will come

Thanks twistedmama I do hope so

I'm actually pretty sure that if you go back through the ads in this section, you'll find that most people have found a donor or stopped posting, which I'd take to mean that they'd found a donor I don't mean to sound flippant, saying your time will come, it's what I've actually seen here and on AED that makes me confident of it.

Everything you are feeling is quite normal, we who are on the same road as you have been there many times. I am on Bub Hub and aussie egg donors and if you were to read through my posts you will find that I have also found myself with the same thoughts as you.
All I can tell you is this, post around the forums in all areas not just egg donation, people will read your posts and get to know you from your posts, includeing PED's your angel will find you she just dosent know ehre you are yet, by posting more everywhere you can, she will find you.
Yours Heather

Dear Khris & Ethyl47 - no advice to offer, and I don't know how you are feeling but lots of and great big and I truly wish you all the best. Good Luck.

Thanks twistedmama, Ethyl47 and Lisy-lis I appreciate your kind words, yes I have been posting in quite a few different posts, such a variety of topics on the site. It's great!

For now I will try and wait patiently

Not having a good day today

Why does life still tease us with some hope? I have just woken up with my period today, (I was about 5 days late though). Normally have a 28-29 day cycle, so when I didn't get it when expected you still can't help having hope that maybe this is the month!!!!

Even after 2 and a half years of trying and 3 ICSI transfers, I still dream about conceiving our own baby naturally. It hurts so much, cried this morning when I found my menstrual cycle was here.

Still very hopeful for an Egg donor angel to fly our way.

Ur not going mad Hun it's normal. I did the same when
I first joined wondering when I would get a wonderful Ed
Write me and give us some hope. I've learnt that it happens
When u least expect it. Just when u think no one is there

Frustrate u after awhile. Goodluck doll. Have faith xxx
