And often, all of this is the culmination of a long road of infertility intervention that stresses you emotionally, financially and physically. Sometimes marriages don't survive it. No matter how you look at it, loss and grief are part of this complex package and sometimes YOU JUST ARE NOT ABLE to talk about it. And at then end of this long long road, if you are lucky enough to have a take home baby, YOU JUST WANT TO FEEL NORMAL again, because goodness knows that after years of fertility treatment, you dont feel normal. All yiu want is to finally be a family and think about something other than how your child came to be.<br /><br />As a mother of a child via donor egg, I do not feel celebrities owe us any explanation at all. In fact I think it's outrageous to suggest that ANY of them should open up about it. I think we should let these new mothers enjoy their babies, and their new found families, and have some semblance of privacy around this issue. I am quite sure their decision to have a family via donor egg was a huge one, not taken lightly, and such decisions need to be respected, and if THEY VOLUNTEER this information, it should be received with the deference and respect it deserves.
