I'm researching the above with the view of becoming pregnant next year.
I can't believe how little I know about how my body works and biological reproduction in humans lol
I know a few things but not everything.
I'm struggling with what to tell any future kids about how they came into this world without a Dad.
There are also questions worries floating around my head from time to time in those quite moments of the day, like:
Is there a test to tell if I'm releasing more than one egg a month?
(Am I mad to do this with limited support and no partner)
Is there a test to tell how many eggs I've left in my reserve?
(And then back to, am I mad, I could die in childbirth)
What produces twins so I can make my family with least trauma?
Is donor sperm going to be available to single women to artificially inseminate at home in Ireland soon?
And you can probably guess the rest, my head is buzzing with questions and worry.
There's nobody to ask any of these questions of. GP doesn't know when I asked.
This post is for everyone else to learn from and add their own queries.
Fire away ladies.
Honestly this is the only way to become a mother that makes sense in 2022. A father is unfortunately just a risk factor now. Although I am married I have a consultation for egg freezing next week and will probably only have another child when I have sufficient savings of about 1000000.
