Hey friends! I wanted to share a heartwarming journey of a single mom who decided to create her family on her own terms. Meet Lisa, a vibrant 36-year-old who always dreamed of being a mom. Life had other plans, and she hadn’t found the right partner yet. But instead of waiting, she took charge of her destiny!
After some medical consultations and testing, Lisa made the empowering decision to become a “single mother by choice.” She explored her options and after much thought, she opted to use a known donor instead of going the anonymous route.
In her quest for the right approach, she stumbled upon at-home insemination, which seemed like the perfect fit. Lisa ordered her kit and gave it a go in October and November of 2018. Unfortunately, those attempts didn’t yield results—she felt like the timing was a bit off. Not one to give up, she tried again in January 2019. Fast forward to October 13, 2019, and Lisa welcomed her beautiful baby boy into the world! She couldn’t be happier.
Though she prefers to keep her son’s photos private, she assures us he’s absolutely perfect. We’re thrilled to share Lisa’s inspiring story and commend her courage in creating her family independently. It’s a journey that can be challenging, but Lisa’s determination shines through.
