    Just for you info - we used an unknown Australian donor
    im just curious about this so i hope you dont mind me asking, but ( i dont know how to word it lol ) does it worry you that your child does not know its father?

    and what about the prospects of one day your child may end up with a partner that could be a sibling??? Are there any checks and balances for preventing such a senario?

    how do you get your head around that when deciding to use an unknown donor sperm?

    Hi Peg,

    If you read through a few topics in this area you'll find the answers, but I'll give a quick answer to your questions.
    Jazz doesn't have a dad or a father, she has a sperm donor. No it doesn't bother me that she doesn't know the sperm donor. I hope she chooses to meet him when she is older though, because he gave us the gift of a daughter and she gave a portion of her genetics so it'd be nice for her to meet him and I'd love to say thanks.
    I don't worry about her ending up with a partner who could be a sibling. It obviously won't be unknown that she has a sperm donor, so it's one thing she'll have to be aware of. But not necessarily more aware than myself, since my mum is adopted and doesn't know all of her biological siblings so i don't know my cousins.

    so does that mean you know the donor and able to make contact with him if you (or jazz) wants to?

    No, its an unknown donor. But Australia donor laws mean that the donor is able to be contacted, and able to contact Jazz, once she turns 18.
