Tanisha,
While we provide sperm banking and tissue storage at our facilities, we don’t offer insemination…But either a reproductive specialist or an obgyn should be able to assist with that procedure.

If you contact our offices at 706-733-0130 or 800-277-3210, we can look for offices near Douglasville that can assist you.

Comment on Tell Donor Children Early in Life by Val

I conceived my 2-year-old with anonymous donor sperm. I’m all for transparency and am very matter of fact with him. I’d love some guidance about age-appropriate language to describe the sitaution to him. Right now all we say very matter of factly is that he doesn’t have a daddy. But I don’t know how to introduce the concept of donor to him. Would appreciate any guidance or articles. Sincerely, Val

if things go according to plan, i will be the grandmother of one of your children.

will it be possible to incorporate in your files messages to the donor and the child from the grandmother?

if i die or her mother dies before she reaches age and you meet her, i’d like to know you understand the other side of the child’s roots.

[…] family when they may not have ever been able to do so without a donor. You can read a donors story “Why I became a donor” in our previous blog […]

Debbie, I carry the CF gene and my husband had a vasectomy so we chose to use a donor. At first, we too were scared about what people would think; but I could not lie to everyone I know. We had to do fertility counseling before IVF - the counselor helped A LOT!! We are not going to put it on a billboard; in our case some people know and some don’t but either way we are not ashamed of the decision we have made. Those narrow minded individuals that might question “your” decision are just that narrow minded. The decisions we have all made are our own and some were very difficult decisions to come to. If your friends or family do not respect that they have the problem not you. In the end we all have a family that we might not have without the help of Xytex and our donor. Good Luck!!

Hi Debbie, we had to use donor sperm to conceive our son. Like you, we found it VERY hard to talk about. In fact, not only does our child not know, either do many of our family or friends. If you’d like to talk, respond back here and we’ll see how we can connect. Best wishes. By the way, my son JUST turned 12!

I am so happy to hear this story! I would love someone to email me and tell me about their experiece with donor sperm.We are going through treatment and will be using donor sperm.Hopefully it will be happening in January.
We find it hard to talk to alot of people about who haven’t gone through this and hopefully we will speak to someone through this newsletter.
Thanks so much
Debbie
