Building your family

Single motherhood can be great


Listen Later

Have you ever imagined what goes on inside the head, and home, of a single mother by choice?  I have!  I have talked to many of the people I see about how they chose their donor, how they decided to close the door on a partner (at least for now), what worried them, and how they do it all!

In this week's episode you will meet Lesley Bogad. She is a professor and has dedicated a lot of time to deciding how she would manage all of these issues and more, and some of the answers she shares may surprise you.  Lesley is so interesting and thoughtful.  I just loved hearing how she sees parenthood, donor conception, and her life with her son.  I think you will too.
