This is a check-in for those of you who are parents as a result of TPR including donor sperm, donor eggs, donor embryos, gestational carrier, surrogacy, or any combination of those. Lurkers are welcome to come in and ask questions or become part of the check-in!
Point of clarification: I am using 'surrogacy' to mean traditional surrogacy (using the surrogate's eggs/ute) and gestational carrier where the carrier's eggs are NOT used. They are sometimes referred to as 'traditional surrogacy' and 'gestational surrogacy' respectively.
1. Where are you in the parenthood journey?
2. What's on your mind?
QOTW: Are you planning any vacations with your LO this year?
If your status changes and/or you want to be removed, please let me know.
