If you've ever worried, "Will I bond with a baby who doesn't share my genes?", this one's for you.

Rachel Brody, LCSW, gently and beautifully put that myth to rest. Bonding doesn't come from DNA. It's built in the little moments. That's where parenthood really happens. We also talked about: 💛 The grief that can come with losing a genetic connection, and why it's completely normal 💛 Known vs. anonymous vs. open-ID donors 💛 How (and when) to talk with your child about their story 💛 What to say when Aunt Linda asks, "So whose eggs are they?" Takeaway: your feelings about donor eggs can be complicated and loving at the same time. Both can be true. Missed it live? Catch the replay here. And if you're navigating this path, JFF is here for you.
