Roadmap Ep 1 - "Consider Donor Eggs" — Dealing with the Shock and the "What Now?"

from Donor Egg Diary: The Insider Track for 45+ · host Mom-on-a-Mission

When the doctor says "consider donor eggs" and it feels like a bomb went off in your living room, the first reaction is usually a "What!?" This episode is about surviving that initial biological shock and the heavy, confusing grief of losing the "Mini-Me" child you’ve been picturing for years. We're talking about the 2 AM Google spiral, the "double-whammy" of failed own-egg IVF, and how to find your footing when the roadmap you had in mind has completely disappeared.
