I’m giving birth to a baby that isn’t genetically mine and I feel nothing but feel love for this baby. This is my baby.
She’s genetically my wife’s baby, so the situation is a little different. But the other half of your baby’s DNA is someone we’ve never met. It makes no different to us. Maybe because we went into it knowing we could never both biologically be related.
But I do think straight people become far too obsessed with genetics.
