Googling “Egg donation age limit” gives a range of hits. Most say 35 is the oldest with some sites saying 32. They do also say that the limits can be moved a bit in “exceptional circumstances”.
Some also say that women who’ve already had children are preferred by clinics.
No eggs, for 3 reasons:
I would probably lean toward yes, if I could be legally guarded from ever having to pay child support, and if the couple paid all expenses. It would also depend some on the couple – I don’t know what my criteria would be, but I would want to feel that they would be good parents. I would be okay with the child knowing that he or she came from someone else’s egg, if the parents wanted that, but I wouldn’t expect to be involved in the child’s life. I would love periodic pictures and updates, though, just like I do with my friends’ kids.
I know too many people (mostly online, but some IRL) who are desperate to have a child, so if I could help a couple acheive that, I would be happy to. I would also consider being a surrogate mother, but that would be more for close friends and it would depend on health risks – pregnancy is not necessarily something to be entered into lightly! It would also depend on how we would set up our lives together with the child – I would want to be much more involved in that child’s life, especially in its infancy (breastfeeding, etc.).
Fifteen years ago, I’d have considered it (well, after I’d had my own kids… I think it would have felt weird donating eggs for someone else when I had none of my own, but wanted to have them at some point).
Knowing what I do now about my family history, I would not - 2 of 6 grandkids in Dweezil’s generation have autism, 2 others have other mental issues, 1 is a toddler and seems OK but… and then there’s the oddball who’s juggling college scholarship offers 
I just would not want to pass those troubled genes any farther.
Nobody seems to be appreciating that when you cross a Doper with another Doper, the odds are significant that the child’s first words will be “I burning your dog.”
Howsoever, if anyone is willing to take the risk, I’m willing to donate – totally anonymously, and with no money-back guarantees. Just give me the number of the P.O. box.
Probably not. I react badly to hormones. There’s also a family history of a few mental issues. I have reservations about ever having kids myself because I wouldn’t want to put anyone else through some of the shit I’ve been through.
That being said, if it was the ONLY option. . .then, yeah, I might. I’m a sucker that way. And my family is physically quite healthy, and we tend to be intelligent :).
That might be their first sentence, but their first word will probably be “Cite?”
Male
sure.
I have 3 great kids, I could help make more.
Not a chance. You guys are freaks.
Huh. Well, if there’s no guarantee of that, then I’d pass. No sense in getting paid for something unpleasant, only to be told you need to pay for it.
Yes, I would with caveats. I totally understand the desire of some families desperate to have children, but being inable to conceive. I also understand the desire to have biological children of at least one parent, but I do agree with the sentiment that adoption is perhaps preferable. For such couples, why not let the one fertile parent have their biological child–you know, to pass on the genes and what not–and then adopt if you desire more children? For me, as long as I have two biological kids (why two? I dunno), I can’t imagine I’d be obstinately against adoption.
My caveats:
Of course, I assume I’ll be faced with this decision eventually; as I understand, my seed is quite high in demand 
Is that like being high in protein?
