[quote=Anonymous]DC recently turned 3. I am a single mom and used a donated embryo. I have a gay friend from college who has 2 tween kids created using donor material. That friend told me they tell their kids their "birth story" every year on each child's birthday. Its a family thing and the details got filled-in more as they grew-up. I started telling DC a birth story this year. I talked about wanting to be a mommy and how DC is special bc its just the two of us. I say that I got help from a doctor and DC was created from a seed with a "teeny tiny piece" donated from a man and a woman. "If you are very lucky the special seed grows into a baby in the mommy's tummy." I showed DC my ultrasound and newborn pictures. At this age I also emphasized my feelings of love and list all the people who loves DC: my parents, siblings, nieces and nephews.[/quote]
