Embryo Donation

Sarah

A little background about me. My husband and I are being offered two PGS tested male embryos. I should be excited, but instead I feel sad. Sad that transferring these embryos means giving up a genetic link to my children. Sad that I won’t have a daughter. Sad that resulting child may never find their genetic family. I also feel like it’s selfish of me to decline these embryos. My clinic paid to have the embryos PGS tested. This will allow me to experience pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood. These are healthy embryos. Why can’t I definitively say “yes” to these embryos?
