In todays episode I chat to Freya. Freya is donor conceived and was raised by 2 mums. Then, her and her wife used donor sperm to conceive a daughter, so she has perspectives of both being donor conceived and also being a recipient parent. **Warning: we discuss some characteristics of the sperm donor Freya used in the episode** In this episode we cover: - Feelings about being donor conceived - A good age to meet donor siblings - Finding your donor through DNA testing - How it feels to connect with your donor - What language feels comfortable - Considering using a known donor - The importance of constantly learning and much much more!
