BBC DOCUMENTARY: The 7 Ages of Pregnancy

Calling all first time mums-to-be – are you due this summer/autumn?

Renegade Pictures are making a warm, thoughtful film about pregnancy in which our expectant presenter will meet 7 women having a baby at different stages of their lives.

Whatever your age, we would love to speak to you about your choices, attitudes and the changes pregnancy is bringing to your lifestyle.

We are particularly keen to feature women in their 30s, 40s or 50s who are currently pregnant.

We hope this will be a positive opportunity for them to talk about their experiences, choices, and outlooks, and really want to offer them the opportunity to put their opinions across – perhaps challenging stereotypes if they are passionate about that.

Having Your Baby Through Egg Donation
by Ellen Sarasohn, Evelina Weidman Sterling

-- A comprehensive book for people considering parenthood through donated ova, and those supporting them.

It takes readers through the decision-making process, focusing on questions they are likely to be asking themselves, including:
Are we candidates for egg donation? Will it work?

How much does it cost? How do we find a donor?

How do we talk about our decision with others? How will we tell our children?

Ethical questions related to egg donation are also examined:

Can a donor truly have informed consent Is it ethically correct for donors to receive payment, and, if so, is the payment for 'time and effort' or for their eggs?

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
