My partner, Sarah, and I, both women, spent considerable time exploring our options for starting a family. After extensive research, we discovered MakeAmom. Initially, we faced challenges as my body was not accustomed to the process of insemination. However, after nine months of perseverance, we were thrilled to welcome our beautiful baby boy into the world last year. The key was to let go of the stress and rigid scheduling we had imposed on ourselves, allowing our bodies to take the lead in this natural journey.
For those seeking support in finding a sperm donor, consider joining the MakeAmom Facebook group, a free resource for donor matching. Additionally, if you’re interested in at-home insemination, MakeAmom offers the only reusable option available—learn more about how it works here.
