During a scenic road trip through the Rocky Mountains, Sarah and Lisa discovered a potential solution for starting their family. While planning their wedding, they were unsure if they had any options beyond traditional fertility clinics. Their search led them to MakeAmom, and they couldn’t have been happier with their find!
Having decided to use a known sperm donor, they were thrilled when Lisa’s brother offered to help. After a beautiful summer wedding, they ordered several MakeAmom kits, but still sought more information about their reproductive options. In Alberta, Canada, initial consultations for fertility treatments can take up to a year. Fortunately, they managed to secure an earlier appointment than expected. However, they learned that the only place in Canada for a known donor to donate sperm was a clinic in Toronto. This would require flying Lisa’s brother to Toronto for a week of procedures followed by a six-month quarantine for the donated sperm, ultimately costing around $10,000!
Determined to find a more feasible solution, they decided to give MakeAmom a try. They ordered six at-home insemination kits and were delighted to discover that after just three months, they received a positive pregnancy test! The experience of inseminating at home was incredibly fulfilling, allowing them to avoid hormones and invasive procedures. It felt almost unreal.
Now, Sarah and Lisa are eagerly anticipating the arrival of their little one in September!
