[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Neither the doctors nor the lawyer that wrote the contract required by the clink said there was any sort of counseling requirement. The OBGYN, Urologist, or the ART doctor mentioned or required any of that. The only thing they cared about was getting contracts signed because they would not accept delivery of the donor sperm until after those were given to the clinic.

I'm going to say that dcum lives up to its reputation of having a lot of judgmental jerks that make a lot of assumptions in ignorance. Some of your comments are actually quite hurtful but I think the pp that make them know that.[/quote]

OP, it really sounds like you have mixed feelings about having a child who is not genetically yours. It seems like your wife's comments are exacerbating those feelings. If you were not already feeling (I'm just guessing) unsure and a bit emasculated by needing to conceive a child with donor sperm, her comments probably would not bother you as much as they seem to. Your feelings are valid, but I kind of feel like to an extent, you need to work on moving past them quickly. Your wife is already pregnant. You are no longer in the decision-making stage about this in anything other than a nuclear sense. It sounds like you guys have some very real communication issues if you cannot communicate to her that her comments make you uncomfortable. I would strongly, strongly recommend that you seek individual counseling to address both of those issues sooner rather than later.[/quote]
