Oh my God, I am soooooooo excited to see this forum on Belly Belly. A huge THANK YOU to those involved in establishing this. I have been lurking no BB for about 4 months with a few posts.

I am a 35 year old lesbian living with my partner (DP 44 y.o) in Adelaide. I have two sons (9 and 6 years old) who were conceived by known donor sperm. I am their non-bioloogical mother. Their biological mother and I were together for ten years and we split up two and a half years ago. The boys live week about with me and DP and the other week with with their other mum.

DP and I have been together for 14 months and have been TTC for three months, with a known donor (although a different one to the boys' donor). We actually only inseminated one month and got a BFN. The second month I did not seem to ovulate and then the third month the donor was interstate at the crucial time! Am now awaiting AF so we can get on with the next cycle. My GP was concerned I may have PCOS (weight and hair problems) but blood tests with my O+G suggested I was ovulating and all my hormone levels were normal.

I am really looking forward to hearing other stories and meeting moregay and lesbian parents/to be.
