  Thanks for posting this article, I enjoyed reading it. I think I'll tell people my kids came from the stork :
  
  I also like this closing statement:
  
  From an expert, some advice: If youre not close to somebody, keep your mouth shut, Edney says. If you are a friend or relative, when your single lesbian friend or married gay son announces theyre expecting, respect boundaries and dont put anyone on the spot. Ask if theres anything you can do to support them.

  M&K met 8/2002 married 6/2012
  TTC with RE since March 2012
  3 missed O's, 6 IUIs = 1 BFP then 8 w M/C, 5 BFNs
  (2 unmedicated IUIs, 2 clomid IUI, 2 femara IUI)
  Shared maternity/partner IVF, transfer #1 BFP!
  EDD 11/28/13

  I usually don't mind when people ask how M and I plan on having kids, but one time a very pregnant lady was being a Super B to me about gaybies and wanted specifics and I just snapped "I don't know, what position worked for you?" Not my finest moment but M still laughs about it.
