Blood doesn't always make a family as many people in this situation end up finding out the bad way. Adoption is always an option and an adopted child is no less your child and one that you had biologically with someone else.

The difference is purely psychological.... Confused

Care to elaborate? I'm probably having a blonde moment but didn't quite understand that.

she means that you will always know that it is not biologically your child and it will always be a bit "weird" for you...but obviously its different for every person...personally i would not like to adopt but still have kids Smile

Ah I totally missed that. To be honest, I think I'd adopt even if I could have children, going on the whole "there's enough parentless children in the world without having more" idea so I guess I never thought of it was weird. Everyone's different though. Good luck though, start considering options. Sperm storage costs a bomb Sad

Well, it costs £200 a year or so, which seems expensive, but if you think of it as under £20 a month, it isn't that much - that is only for one sample, however, if you wish to store more, such as 4, it would cost about £600 a year, which is rather a lot.. but then again, probably less than some house bills.
