Congratulations on your decision to go forward with the progress! I wish you a successful journey to pregnancy. My partner and I are still in the early stages of planning talking about which one of us is going to be the first to be pregnant. Since my partner is a few years older I think she will go first. Some things we've talked about are whether to ask male family members to possibly donate. But we are going to have to think out all the implications to that. Also we are thinking a lot about bonding circumstances. I've been thinking that maybe we can get pregnant within a certain amount of time of each other so that we can take turns with breast feeding. But that might just be economically unfeasible... In any case I am not too worried about bonding. Raising a child biological or not is a bond strengthening experience in it's own right. And I know our children will feel connected to the two of us as parents. There was a great episode of the PBS show In the Life about gay parenting several years ago that just floored me. Kids love their parents biological or not and some parents choose to not tell their kids who the biological parent is (even though it can be pretty obvious sometimes!) Good Luck!!!
