Three tales of late motherhood (Metro)

25th October 2024

⭐ PICK OF THE WEEK ⭐
Three stories of late motherhood through donor conception

An article published in the Metro explores the experiences of women who choose solo motherhood through IVF after struggling to find partners. Emma, motivated by her own fears of missing motherhood, successfully became a single mother at 43 using donor sperm. Similarly, older solo mums Sarah and Clare share their journeys, highlighting the emotional and financial challenges (as well as some sense of societal judgment) and the supportive networks that helped them through the process.

This was taken from a previous Friday Bulletin. The Bulletin is a round-up of all the stories that matter about donor conception, and is one of many benefits of DCN membership.
