For couples who want a child – their own child, there is no greater disappointment than month after month failing to get pregnant. I know, I was one of those women. Where do you start when this happens? I started with my OBGYN, Obstetric - Gynecologist, who performed a number of tests. My husband had his sperm tasted for motility, quality and number. The lab also tested for HIV, sperm morphology, which is the percentage of normal shaped sperm.
He passed his test – I failed.
At first I was overwhelmed with guilt and disappointment. Guilt gave way to the desire to learn as much as I could on the subject. With my husband having excellent sperm, we only needed preparation for artificial insemination by a sperm bank. It would be impossible for me to carry a baby to term. Plus, I didn’t want my child to be saddled with the same genetic problems I have, becoming an egg recipient was out of the question. I needed a young, healthy surrogate. That’s when I discovered surrogate360.com
