We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude for the incredible support from MakeAmom—sending virtual hugs your way!
We are a same-sex couple, Anna and Mia, who have been together for nearly nine years since our high school days. From best friends to partners, we’ve always dreamed of creating a loving family and providing our future child with a life full of opportunities that we didn’t have.
After considering our options, we decided to work with a sperm bank and successfully collected two frozen vials from an anonymous donor. To track ovulation, we utilized a ClearBlue tracker, eagerly awaiting the smiley face that indicated the perfect time. We inseminated twice in one day, feeling hopeful and excited.
The two-week wait (TWW) felt endless! We tested early and again after missing my period, and to our delight, we received a big fat positive (BFP)! In total, we probably took about 20 tests just to be absolutely certain!
Now… we wait to see what the future holds for us.
