The Necessary

We're moving along nicely, getting contract details finalised and just enjoying the calm before the insemination storm.

Both had their testing done and we've had 3 out of 4 back. All fine. Infact, more than fine and one has taken to calling himself 'Mr Stallion' after having what should be considered an impressive count! In all fairness though, both are perfect so no problems in that department and I'm definitely not going to make anyone feel inadequate!

It's weird when you are looking at same sex surrogacy though, the things you have to consider that you didn't before. Such as, who will be the donor - that threw up a lot of things and even more so since both have no problems in that respect as we now know.

Still on for an early January start, I've very excited and more than a little nervous but we get on really well and it feels like a good, comfortable relationship already which I hope bodes well.

I think it's wonderful you are matched with a same sex couple. I heard about a same sex couple who took turns being the donor for the insems, and two children resulted (fathered by each of the men). Even though biological ties aren't really what is most important when it comes to parenting, it was very neat that the children had a biological tie to each other... and therefore created a biological tie between the two parents. I'm not sure if I'm explaining it well, but hopefully you get the point. :)
