Hello, my name is Amber and I am new to this forum. I had to do something because the pain of what i'm going through is eating me up inside and I feel there is no one else around me that understands!
A little about me...
I'm 29 and have been married to my husband for almost 2 yrs now and we would love nothing more than to be parents. From birth I was diagnosed with Turner's Syndrome which is a genetic disorder that causes several medical complications...one of them being IF. I have absolutely no eggs or even ovaries for that matter so the prospect of me conceiving a bio child is impossible. I have to either get an egg donor and do IVF or adopt. Those are my only options. I have explored both very extensively and they are both expensive...neither of which I can afford. I don't know what to do because I break down in tears crying due to the emptiness and longing I have to be a mother. Everyone says "it'll all work out" or "when the time's right it will happen." I'm sorry to be so negative but I'm tired of hearing those responses from people who have no clue what this is like and how it eats you up inside.
So...I decided to turn to the internet for some support. Please help!
