We’ve Got the Crib, the Storybooks, and So Much Love—All We Need Is Baby

We are John and Lauren, a married couple in North Texas who have been hoping to become parents for six years. We’ve always dreamed of sharing our lives with a child — bedtime stories, school events, lazy Sunday pancakes, and all the little every-day moments that make a family feel like home. We have a stable, loving marriage (13+ years), a safe and supportive home, and a huge circle of relatives and close friends who are excited to welcome a baby.

After infertility and recurrent pregnancy loss, we still deeply want the experience of pregnancy and the chance to raise a child from day one. Embryo donation feels right for us because it lets us build our family while honoring the love and hope that went into creating these embryos in the first place. We know this is an incredibly personal decision.

We are open to a known or semi-open connection, including sharing updates and answering future questions, if that’s something you’d want — and we also completely respect if you prefer more distance. Our promise is simple: your embryos would be cherished, protected, and given every chance to grow up loved, supported, and told their story with honesty and gratitude. We understand embryos cannot be bought or sold, and we would approach this as a gift and a trust, not a transaction.

Thank you for even considering us to be the parents who get to hold and raise this child.
