We are in the early stages of doing a donor egg cycle, and we are very excited about it. I have been reading as much as I can to try and gain some insights from people who have more experience with this process, and who already have children via DE. I know there is a lot of discussion about whether to tell the child about his/her genetic origin and my own view would generally be that telling is best and secrets are harmful.
BUT... we already have two DDs via regular IVF, using our own egg and sperm. Does that have an effect on whether we should tell the child about his/her origin or not? I would feel terrible if the child were to feel "different" or somehow compare him/herself to our DDs and wonder ... Most of the articles/blogs I read about this topic don't deal with that issue.
I would very much appreciate any thoughts or links to sites that deal with this issue.
