The Hyve AV Becoming Mother with Theoni & Deborah

10. Morgen & Nicola - Two moms and two babies

Loading player...
Morgen and Nicola, two women who fell in love 13 years ago, share their motherhood journey -- which wasn't an obvious one at first.
From deciding who will be pregnant first, to going to a fertility clinic secretly, to choosing a sperm donor, to the process they went though to get pregnant, to defining roles within the family... It was a full journey but their unbreakable bond helped them go through it with humour and grace.

Having children in a same sex marriage is not something they took for granted. By sharing their story, they want to tell other same sex couple that it is all possible, with the right tribe, the right knowledge and the right partner.
