My best friend, for lots of complicated reasons , is single although beautiful, accomplished, successful etc etc. She had a m/c last year aged 38 and it really crystallized in her mind her desire to have a child but no man worth his salt is in sight.
So, the long and the short of it is that my DH made a very loving offer - and completely to do with his love for her and her place in our lives and because we once faced the possibility of not being able to have children of our own - to donate sperm.
My first thoughts were that was incredible of him but she might feel weird about it. She feels that surely I would feel weird about it. She's already like extended family and godparent to ours so I don't feel anything but positive about it. But am I missing something out - that's what's worrying me. Presumably if it gets to that point, they can do an IVF type donation situation - haven't done any research into that yet, and I read some other threads about how the anonymous sperm donation legalities were handled.
Thoughts, input, any adviice please?
