Third Party Reproduction Bump Board

Hello, I hope you don't mind if I make a quick post over here to let you know that a Third-Party Reproduction board was just created (see left hand panel of board listings.) There was tons of demand for it on the IF and IFV boards and one of our regular IF posters said that many of the posters over here would be interested as well. I wanted to make sure you knew. :)

The board is available to discuss issues surrounding donor sperm, eggs, embryos, gestational carriers. It will be for anyone from all walks of the process including cycling, pregnancy, parenting, etc. I hope to see some of you over there too if you are interested!

    Liz!

    I think you know me from IF and the DE/DS check in :) Thanks for posting here!

    For the LGBT ladies, I think this new community/board is awesome. While many of the women there have had infertility issues,there are definitely similarities in terms of selecting donors, and accepting DNA into your family that is outside of your relationship.

    Anyhow, just plugging it because it's a great group of women who are compassionate and open about using DS or other 3rd party methods.
