Before You Were Born...Our Wish For A Baby (The Story of Egg Donation)

A story book written in age-appropriate, loving language and tells the story of how a child came to be via Egg Donation. The book is written for 3-5 year olds. Using bears as characters, the illustrations depict the typical day in the life of a child interacting with their parent. The book describes a baby conceived by in vitro fertilization using the father's sperm and a donated egg. The embryo is placed into the uterus of the mother, who then carries and delivers the child. The child is genetically related to the father and the egg donor, but not the mother. This book does not use the words egg or sperm. The term donor is used. This book is written for heterosexual couples and uses the words "Mommy and Daddy".
