My partner and I were in a really good place in our lives—secure and ready for the next step, which was to welcome a little one into our family. After some research, we came across a home insemination kit that gave us hope. We ordered it, and from that moment on, it felt like a blessing was on the way.
Initially, we found out we were pregnant in August 2018, but our joy turned to heartbreak just weeks later when we learned we were experiencing a miscarriage. Despite the sadness, we held onto hope and decided to try again. By November 2018, we received amazing news—we were pregnant again, and this time it stuck!
In January 2019, we discovered we were having a boy, which was exactly what we had hoped for. In August 2019, we welcomed our little miracle, Owen, into the world. It’s incredible that both times we only needed one attempt to conceive! We’re so thankful for a donor with strong genes, even if he is a bit of a jokester with weak ones. Being a lesbian couple, it’s remarkable how much Owen resembles me, even though my partner carried him!
We can’t thank the team behind the kit enough for making our dream of having a family a reality. Now, our golden retriever has a little human buddy to grow up with too!
To anyone who’s on this journey of trying to conceive, whether you’re actively using a kit or just thinking about it, don’t give up! Your time will come, and when it does, you’ll have your own miracle baby as well.
