Topics Covered

 

A DC Parent Community

Connect with other recipient parents on the journey to find genetic connections alongside you. This is such a unique path to walk, and is important that you are surrounded by people who understand and can support you.

The Importance of Genetic Connections

In this session we will discuss how important genetic connections can be for you and your child, how to start talking to your child/children about them, the language to use and when/how to start making introductions (if at all possible).

Connecting with Your Donor

Whether you are just thinking about starting to search for an anonymous donor, or have already found them and haven’t had the courage to reach out yet, or have connected but not sure how to navigate the relationship moving forward, this session will provide you with some options and strategies to do all of the above.

Connecting with Same Donor Siblings

We want to help you build confidence in your options to find and connect with same donor siblings. This can be a really scary part of the process that many of us don’t even think about until our children are here. This session will address challenges and benefits, while highlighting some unique personal experiences.
