Your Cart is Empty
This is the second interview of my Taking Control Series which has been developed to give you lots of ways you can start to feel more in control, whatever your journey looks like.
I interviewed the amazing Mike Johnson-Ellis, co-founder of Twodads.u.k, and Daddy to two gorgeous children through surrogacy, with his husband Wes. We talk about their journey to become parents and the process they went through with surrogacy. We also talk about the myths regarding things going wrong and perceived legal complications.
If you are looking in to surrogacy as a route to parenthood, or are considering starting a family in a same-sex relationship, Mike gives lots of great advice on how to start the process.
The surrogacy journey can seem very overwhelming, particularly at the start when there is so much information to take in and decisions to be made. If you don't know anyone that has experience of surrogacy to help you, then it can be ahrd to make some of these decisions.
There is more information and support now than ever before, and Two Dads are doing great work to increase it further. There are also counsellors working with Fertility Clinics that can support you through this experience.
I've been recording interviews with some amazing people working in the Fertility industry to get some insight and advice on how you can take back control of your Fertility journey and your life, whatever your situation, and I will be continuing to share them over the next few weeks.
Somewhere around October, that little voice can start getting louder.Could we still fit IVF in before Christmas?Maybe you’ve had that date in your head for months. Maybe you’ve been quietly hoping that by Christmas things will finally feel different.
Hayley shares both her personal journey to parenthood and her professional experience supporting families, offering an honest insight into the emotional, practical, and clinical realities of donor conception.
We chat about the role acupuncture can play in supporting people through infertility and fertility treatment. Together, we explore some of the common myths surrounding acupuncture, how it works alongside conventional fertility treatment.
