hi thanka2,

i know that it sound very silly for me too, as i know i need to start to search the egg donors for another people, i was quite confused, so i am looking from internet, and read more information about it.

i am thinks for those kindly women are giving egg donors to help the people, they are the angle to light on the life in the family, i am appreciate all that what they do ....

Thanka2, you can imagine how hard we are trying to have our baby....

thanks for listen
with love

It's just the way it was worded that sounded really funny. I'd expect "value for money" to be on a carton of eggs at Park n' Shop here, actually.

Of course you must be trying hard. If I were in your position, I would adopt one of the many, many, many children (especially Chinese children who are abandoned or orphaned) that need good homes. Different people have different opinions about adoption, though. But as an ethnically Chinese person, your chances of adopting from China or Hong Kong are much higher.

I volunteered at one time with this orphanage and know several expatriates from Europe who live there and volunteer (nurses, doctors etc.)

Oh, and Mother's Love is associated with Mother's Choice here in Hong Kong:

hi thaka
after my husband and i were turned down to adopt we turned to ivf.
you are right, the phrase value for money does sound funny, but ART is an expensive business, and so you do want to look for a place that has good success rates and lower prices (like south africa) if you have the option of travelling.
in answer to your second comment, sadly, there are many women and couples who are looking for clinics with egg donation programs. insurance rarely covers infertility treatment, so many couples do "shop around".
good on you for your volunteer work, mother's choice is a great organisation. amazing photos.

If you don't mind me asking, why were you turned down to adopt? I know that here in Hong Kong adopting locally can be a bit tricky but there are certainly other places to adopt children.

I really can't ever imagine going through IVF--it seems incredibly expensive and the rates of success overall aren't very high, from what I've read. It truly is unfair. Those women who weren't all that interested in having a baby--or at least not "baby hungry" (like me) end up with kids and those who really feel that having a child will complete them have to do IVF. Not fair at all.
