Making Baby Humans: A Single Man's Quest to Become a Non-traditional Biological Father (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781541361928)

Making Baby Humans is a heartfelt and eye-opening journey for a single, gay man determined to become a parent. It starts with a provocative question from his toddler-aged sons, "Daddy, where is our mother?" Feeling that his short answer to their question would not do justice, he reveals to them the emotionally charged and complex story of how they came to be.The book chronicles his decision to become a parent, a tumultuous search for an egg donor, his turn to international IVF and surrogacy in the face of intolerable domestic rates, a tragic miscarriage, and a two month ordeal in Bangkok, Thailand to acquire his resulting babies. The story comes to climax with a dramatic exit from that country in the midst of growing political protests that would result in a military coup and crackdown on IVF and surrogacy programs in Thailand.Whether you are someone contemplating your own biological non-traditional path to parenthood, or one of millions curious to learn more, Making Baby Humans is an invaluable resource that will change your perspective forever.
