Did they send me a “girl” instead of a “son”? Did you sign up for donor sperm only to be surprised when you were sent a “girl” instead of a “son”? I was so frustrated, and unable to believe that I was a recipient of “a girl” instead of a “son.”

“girl” is a sperm donor

The woman who conceived her daughter with the sperm of a sperm donor was surprised to get an email with a picture of a girl that looked just like her daughter. Thankfully, Emily Capasso knew about her potential donor and sought her out through the Donor Sibling Registry. Marotta donated sperm and semen to create her daughter and the woman was thrilled. However, she was reluctant to contact her donor, fearing that she would be contacted by an unknown party.

Today, sperm donation is a great way to provide pregnancies to single women who don‚t have a partner or who are unable to have a biological child. The availability of fertility medicine has made it possible for heterosexual couples to have children without the aid of third-party gametes. In addition, changes in social attitudes and the legal framework have enabled single women to create biological families without a partner.
