Turner's Syndrome Women

I am a 32 year old women, that was diagnosed with Turner's Syndrome (TS) when I was 17 years old. This has left me unable to concieve a child on my own. Lately I have been feeling very hopeless that I will ever have a child in my life. IVF is very expensive, and not a 100% that you wil have a child. I would love to Adopt or find a Surrogate Mother. My husband and I have alot of love to give. I believe that I was born infertile for a reason. There are so many kids out there that need families and deserve families to love them and care for them. I think there is more to being a Mom than just giving birth. I believe it is loving the child enough to do what is best for them. I am grateful to those mothers who have the courage to say i am not able to give my child what they deserve because it makes motherhood possible for women like me.

I know how you feel. It feels like it will never happen. I feel God has a plan for all of us and although none of us can really understand right now, things happen for a reason. I get blue a lot and have to remind myself of how blessed I am otherwise, but the want of a child is so great. I have also thought of IVF, but like you I know it is not 100%. I only have a 44% chance with help to get pregnant, so like you I don't have the money to take that chance. I have pondered adoption, but no decision made yet. Welcome to this site, I am new to it as well.
