Hi everyone. I am hoping to find some help, support, I don't know...someone to talk to, I guess. My partner and I have decided to try to have a baby. No idea where to start, so I decided to find a message board. We have a little girl, she is three (from my partner's previous relationship.) We know all about how to do it...I'm tracking my cycles and we've researched the whole sperm donor, AI thing. Now the problem is finding a donor and actually doing it. I get the feeling I'm going to need some support in all this.
You've found the perfect spot to get support. This is a great message board with a lot of wonderful women. Jump into the chatty thread and join our ongoing conversation.
