I am looking for a co-parenting relationship. I would very much like to have a child, but know I can not do it alone. I believe it is important for a child to be exposed to male and female influences. Any child should be given a multitude of experiences so that they can form their own personality and beliefs. A strong and loving parental unit(s) is paramount, coupled with positive interaction and encouragement, for them to be who they want to be.

I am 38 years old. I am told, I actually look much younger than my age dictates. I am 5'10, 160 lbs. Medium frame and in good shape physically and mentally. I am well educated and have a good job. I enjoy boating, skiing, golf, tennis, camping, hiking, biking, movies, theatre, museums, music, traveling and a huge animal lover.

If interested, please do not hesitate to contact. I do have pictures.

Hello,

My partner and I have been together since 1996 (13 years, March '09) and believe that fatherhood is the next natural step in our lives, in our relationship, and in our biological desires as men.

We are seeking a female or female couple for a co-parenting relationship; the details of the co-parenting relationship are negotiable.

Ethnicity is not important, we welcome all races. Our vision of establishing a connection with a potential co-parent(s) involves written correspondence and a brief face to face meeting in a public setting before moving forward to the next step.

If it is your desire to join us on this journey to parenthood, please contact us (cdan2302@aol.com).

We have a full service surrogacy and egg donation center that includes an attorney and a full service staff. We use a team approach whereby your egg donation and/or surrogacy arrangement is managed by your doctor, the attorneys, the psychologists, and us for you. This approach will provide you with the best possible situation and will alleviate most of your risks and fears. In addition, we are able to provide prompt, personal service to help you make the right decisions regarding your Egg Donor, Surrogate, or Intended Parents because we have a large staff available for you full time and after hours. Of course, our egg donor database is certainly the most comprehensive in the industry because we verify our egg donors' credentials and availability each month, and remove those egg donors that are no longer part of our program.

Please feel free to give us a call at 858-748-4222 or email us at Info@ConceptualOptions.com if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Greetings:

Hello,

I am a thirty-six year old woman seeking a gay couple to co-create and co-parent a child with. I am well-educated, financially stable and healthy- mentally, physically and spiritually. For a variety of very un-original reasons, I find myself single with my biological clock ticking louder each day. I am weary of the dating scene and have accepted the fact that I will likely not find Mr. Right in time to have a child while I am still young and healthy. So, I am seeking a loving, stable couple who is ready to father a child.

I don't envision this as a surrogate or open adoption arrangement, but rather a co-parenting arrangement in which, at least for the first few years of the child's life, we would live together and parent the child as a team. Down the road, as the child's biological parents, we would arrive at a mutually beneficial custody arrangement.

I am seeking a couple (of any race/ethnicity) that is well-educated, mature, politically left leaning, financially stable, emotionally healthy, loving, nurturing and settled in Los Angeles. Of course, there are many other qualities, both tangible and intangible, that I am seeking. If this sounds like a viable and desireable option for you, please contact me at omshanti898@gmail.com. and we can begin to learn more about each other.

Thank you. Peace and blessings.

We are a lesbian couple of 30 and 31 who are looking for the right someone to Co-Parent with and complete our family. We live on the South Coast of NSW in the midst of sandy sapphire beaches and rolling green 'sound of music' hills in a beach house with our animal children! We are both working professionals- a special needs teacher and a real estate agent and we have been together for 4 1/2 years. We are excited and committed to the prospect of having children to share our life and our love with, and are open to the idea of Co-Parenting with a gay single or couple who share the same values.

We are looking for you to be well balanced, intelligent and easygoing with a passion to experience all life has to offer. While this feels strange posting an ad to a stranger about something so personal, being gay in this world and wanting to be a parent can be a difficult prospect - and ours, while not a traditional journey, will be no less intimate for any of us.

We definitely want to make sure the donor we choose will be the right one for us, and our child/ren as we want to facilitate the best possible life- with 3 or 4 (if you have a partner) people who love them more than anything. For this reason we would like a chance to get to know you and discover if you are right for us and vice versa. We envision a gay 'family circle' where we all share in the child/rens life and each others. (We would also consider a donor only option if you were the right person but could not facilitate a constant commitment to being in the child's life.) So if we sound like two people you would like to get to know better and discuss what you had in mind with regard to involvement, email us (a pic would be nice!)If not, good luck on your journey! :)

Hello,

We are 38 and 39 year old African-american and Hispanic guys, professionals, in a Loving committed monogamus relationship for 9 years. We are disease and drug free. We love to spend time with family and friends. We are honest and sincere about becoming fathers.

We are looking for a co-parenting relationship. Our dreams in life is to have a biological child but we can not do it alone. We are willing to assist financially in raising the child. You will be the primary parent, we are very open to the degree of involvement. We believe it is important for a child to be exposed to male and female influences.

So if you want to be a mother we want to be fathers, so let make both of our dream came true. If interested, please do not hesitate to contact our via E-mail to TSUGREYSTONE@HOTMAIL.COM I do have picture to share.

I am looking to be a loving dad and co-parent with someone in the immediate NY metro area / long Island. I am a 34 year-old single gay male of British and Italian descent. I am a NYC public school teacher in Brooklyn, healthy (eat right and exercise), drug and disease/std free and looking for the same in a white female who is looking for a loving co-parent and interested in a joint custody arrangement. I own a 2 bedroom apartment in Freeport, Long Island with a loving and supportive family nearby.

I am looking for someone who is financially stable, financially responsible and financially and emotionally independent who can evenly share all child-related expenses and share the joys of parenthood. If you fit that description, I'd love to hear from you.

We are a gay male couple that have been together for almost 20 years. I am 41 (Jon) and my partner Ben is (37). We have been fortunate to be surrounded by children all our lives but we know we really one to have a child of our own. I am looking to be the primary parent (pictured in blue shirt). We have great hearts, are very open minded and would make a child have the most incredible, warm, nuturing and fullfilled life that a child can have. Ben has one brother and his mother lives close to us here in Florida. I have five sisters and one brother with a grandmother who lives close to me so the child would have a lot of family around to surround themselves with love. We have many close friends as well who would each contribute something positive to the life of the child.

We are both middle class, own our own home and are gainfully employed. We live in a two-story townhome in a planned community with good schools near by and many wonderful activites that any child could dream of. We imagine a little girl is out there somewhere waiting for us who loves music, ballet, the color pink and sleeps in a room with a canopy bed over it surrounded by images of Disney and Tinkerbell on her walls. Or, we imagine we would be so fortune to have a young man who is out there waiting to be part of our lives who enjoys history, maybe sports and will grow up to be a strong and confident young man.

We are looking for a single female or lesbian couple who will join us going down this path for a co-parent relationship. We are very open and flexible but are hoping the child would be able to live with us as the primary with a 50/50 parent relationship. We want to be in this together but are open to exploring all options.

We would be honored for your response to help us realize this dream.

Can you hear that...it's my biological clock ticking?

P.S. More pictures and information are available once a connection has been made with any prospective mother; as well as any documentation that is needed in terms of health, (mental & physical), & stability.

I am a gay man who used to work in childcare and I've seen many happy families. Now, I'm working in the medical field as a surgical technologist and looking to help women start families of their own.

Since talking to my lesbian friends it seems it is difficult to find a gay man who is willing to donate.

I am a sensitive, thoughtful, passionate man who has a sense of humor. I love politics, studing religion, gardening and learning. I am in great health and tested STD free 4-3-09. I've been in a monogamous relationship with my husband for 7 years. He supports my efforts to help a woman or couple start a family. I'm excelling in my new career and love every minute of it. Raising children is a blessing but it is not for me. I have no wishes to co-parent, but if you wish for me to be a part of your child's life, I'm willing to be a known donor. I live in Minneapolis MN and I don't travel much or more than 300 miles away. Please contact me if you'd like to know more.

Hi everybody, We are a gay couple, living in Brussels, Belgium. We are together for the last 4 years & as we want to become a real family, we look for a way to have our own children. We are looking either for a woman who is wiling to be a surrogate mother for our child, or a woman or a lesbian couple, who would like to co-parent with us (this for sure has to be in Belgium). If by any chance you are interested or know someone who may be - please let us know, Yours, F & A

Hi there! My name is Gayle. I am 31 years old, living currently in PA! I am looking into becoming a Surrogate! I have three awesome kids! My son is 13. The ladies are 6 and 4. I am married, but we have been separated for the past two and a half years. I do have a wonderful support system of very supportive friends. The women in my life are very strong women; like attracts like right!

I did go to Europe to have an embryo transfer this summer. I am familiar with the injections and other medications. Unfortunately, the transfer was not a success. Of the seven embryos that were thawed, only two were quality to be transferred. It was very sad for me but I feel I have a better understanding of how couples find themselves in the position to turn to a surrogate.

I just recently had my pap and all blood screening. I have a clean bill of health. Unfortunately, I do not have medical insurance, but will be willing to get it! Please contact me if you feel you would like to chat and ask any questions.

I am willing to deliver in another state and have you attend any and all medical appointments. I am looking for parents that will attempt breastfeeding themselves or use breast milk. This will create a bond between you and your child as well as deliver nutrients to the developing brain.

PS. I have lots of pictures!

Greetings and thank you for reading our ad. We are stable, committed gay couple in Dallas seeking a local healthy/secure single female or lesbian couple interested in exploring the opportunity of co-parenting together. It takes a village to raise a child and we think that a child could never have too much love in his/her life, so we would be interested in exploring this with the right female/couple.

We are 38 and 35 year old professionals, in a loving committed monogamous relationship for 7+ years, healthy, disease and drug free with lots of friends and family close by. We have talked about starting a family for years and are ready to take this to the next level.I am 5'8", 160 pounds, brown hair/brown eyes, part native American/German/French. I am member of Mensa, tri-lingual and have a master's degree. My spouse is 5'4", 130#, brown hair/brown eyes and of German/Irish ancestry with a college degree.

We are a mature, loving and financially stable couple who spend our weekends with family or at our second home on the lake. We love to spend time with our niece and nephews, travel, laugh, play outdoors and entertain in our free time. We can be silly, serious and caring and we are each other's best friend and supporting pillar in life.

We are looking for a healthy, caring, mature and financially stable female or lesbian couple open to the idea of co-parenting. Age/race is not important so long as you can healthily conceive. We want to share the emotional, financial and parental obligations required, so only respond if you are in the DFW area and are willing to treat us as equal partners in this wonderful experience. It is important to us that you want us to play an active role in the child's life, as we certainly want a loving mother or mothers for our child too. We are seeking a woman/couple with values and beliefs like ours who is interested in first becoming friends and then starting this journey together.

If you would like to learn more, please send an email to twogaydads@gmail.com and tell us a bit about yourself and what you seek. We are happy to trade pics as well.

Thanks and God Bless :-)

Hello, I am a 45 year young Italian-Canadian looking for someone to co-parent with. I am a professional and hold 3 universitry degrees. I am looking to be involved in the child's life and to share custody. I am 5'10 and 170 with blue eyes and brown hair. I have many pics to send you if interested. I am geographically flexible and can live almost anywhere with the work I do. I look forward to hearing from any interested parties. Cheers.

Whew! Well, I've never placed an ad like this before, but here goes! I am a 39 year old gay man that has dreamt of being a dad for as long as I've known I was gay LOL. To many it may seem that the two are incongruous, but then again I never really did fit any of the typical stereotypes. Ultimately I am looking for a family of my own to share with a woman who feels like I do, and without losing my gay identity. I guess I envision a lesbian or lesbian couple first, but I am staying open minded.

I seek a coparent arrangement because I feel a child deserves both a Mom and Dad if possible. I have a big heart and have a lot of love to give, and that includes giving some to my future baby's Momma (again let me say that I am G-A-Y honey, hahaha!) I could never be in a situation where I feel cold and disconnected to the little one's Mommy. It's my job to be a good Daddy, and that means being a good guy to Mom as well!! I have a really great family! They're all emarkable actually...and they all would be beyond thrilled to welcome our new little one!!

I am in a 10 year relationship with a wonderful man. We share our home, our families, have a business together, and share our past, present, and future. We are excited about the prospect of enlarging our family of two, but I am really the one that feels the strongest calling to Fatherhood.

In this day and age of online instant gratification, it's hard to slow down and be patient and take the time to find the right person for this unique parenting partnership. I don't really know what to expect, and I don't really know exactly what I am looking for, but I hope that I will have the wisdom to know it when I find it :)

I'm interested in hearing from healthy, down to earth women of childbearing age who are well adjusted to life and have a deep seated desire to have a loving family with a man who wants that too. I have had some great responses here, but unfortunately they have all come from out of my area. I'm looking to be as much a part of my child's life as possible, so I am most interested in hearing from someone local to the central NJ or NYC area. I guess if you feel like you "need" a child but not baby's Dad around, then we probably aren't what each other is looking for, but best of luck to you anyway.

If anyone reading this has any suggestions for other places I should look, or other ideas or avenues to pursue, I would be very grateful to you for letting me know.

Thanks for reading! Just say hi if you want to, it doesn't mean either of us is committed to anything LOL :)

We are a happy, loving gay couple who would like to be parents. We are a looking for a female or lesbian couple who want the same and would be willing to help us. In return we would help you make your parenting dreams come true.

I am 35 yrs. old, of Mexican descent. Born and raised in Houston, TX. I am a professional singer and actor and I have worked as a singer/actor professionally for 19 years.

My partner Donald is 41, Caucasian. Born and raised near Birmingham, AL. He is a professional working as a director of the business office in health care.

We are financially stable and disease and drug free.

We look forward to speaking with you.

Successful and artistic college educated gay male employed full-time in the arts seeks a female/females to enter into a 50/50 agreement. I have so much love to give to a child and would love to pursue this as a possibility.

New to this and I don't claim to know all the ins/outs of making this a reality- but would like to talk with like-minded women/couples that have similar goals.

I am 37 years old and very healthy in NH. I am open to many different agreements and possibilities.

Let's chat and see where it goes... at the very least I will learn more about the possibility of being a great dad to a child.

True North Productions in the UK is making a sensitive observational documentary about Surrogacy. It’s for Channel 4 – a British Public Service Broadcaster – and its flagship documentary series Cutting Edge.

We aim to follow surrogate mums and intended parents at different stages of their journeys: from meeting each other, to conception, to birth and the start of new family life with their baby. The documentary will focus on the experience of being a surrogate mother – why and how women decide to give childless couples the gift of a child and how it affects their own lives. We particularly want to explore why women choose to become surrogates again and again.

We are keen to hear from surrogate mums and intended parents, at any stage of surrogacy, in North America or the UK, who might be interested in appearing in the programme. We’re especially keen to hear from women who are experienced surrogates.

We’re filming right through to December 2008 but we’d really like to just talk to you first - there’s no pressure to be involved in the programme, it will just be helpful for our research.

If you’re interested or have any questions please feel free to contact Katie Conoby on 011-44-113-222-7540 if you’re calling from the States or 0113-222-7540 if you’re calling from the UK. Or email on katieconoby@truenorthproductions.co.uk . We’d love to hear your story.

Hi, I am a healthy and good-looking 42 year old gay Latin/Caucasian male. I’m 5’9” with dark hair and brown eyes. I am a bright, friendly, and caring person. I am also financially secure and trustworthy and am seeking a co-parent relationship with a female.

I am honest and sincere about becoming a father and parent and I want to share the joys and responsibilities of raising a child. I had an excellent childhood and have a close family and wonderful friends and would love to add a child in my life. I am hoping to meet the right person; someone to share this life experience with me; someone with a good heart and interested in raising a child together. My immediate family lives in Maryland, so I would be willing to relocate there, if necessary. I am ready to get started and discuss interests and arrangements further.

Lesbian couple of 7 1/2 years seeking sperm donation to help start our family! We originally are from Bakersfield and after trying out different places to live for the last year an a half, we have settled in Visalia. We are very familiar with the Valley and are willing to travel to meet you. We both have stable careers and although we are new at this we are very anxious to get started. For years we have dreamed about becomming "MOMS" and now we want to make it a reality. We would like for the Donor to not have any responsibility. We would like to meet, sit and talk with anyone who may be interested in becoming our Donor.

Inez and Stacy

Other people's children are terrific. I should know. I've been entrusted with them since the fourth grade. And I have always loved being the one who's known for my talent with kids, because I knew that when it was my turn, I'd be more qualified for that job than for any other.

So how did I end up in the swollen ranks of women who 'forgot to have kids'? The same way most do in this economic era. But as a performing artist and then journalist, I was especially in the wrong line for providing a secure home.

Now, as a college administrator and home owner, the stage is set for co-parenting. I'm not eager to jump into a relationship to make this happen. In fact, I'm not eager to jump into a relationship at all. My social circle is broad and bright. The only elements missing are a child and the father who shares in the process.

Hello Ladies,

Rew here, at your service. I'm a 26 year old male. I am currently attending university as well as working as a careprovider for a disabled young man. Working with him have taught me amazing amounts of patience and compassion. I am interested in donating sperm to help women achieve their dream of being mothers. I am hard working, intelligent, creative and happen to be gay so this is my way of bringing life into the world.

I'd be happy to talk with you, answer any questions and show you pictures of me as a kid. I am open to structuring the relationship around your needs, but can not be held financially responsible for any children.

I am a whimsical vegetarian spryte prone to inner metaphysical journeys, healing work (www.pranicpower.com), dances and music of the east (www.prinzandrew.com) and world travel and cultures.

I enjoy being physically and emotionally healthy and sharing honest communication, humor and affection with others.

I am interested in getting to know others of similar or complementary focus and spirituality.

I am open to being an emotional support for children in my life.

ME: 6ft., brownish hair [was blond color when young - see pics - which show me in mid-20's - current ones available when you e-mail]; greenish [were once blue] eyes, 180lbs, 54 [act lot younger - never properly matured], bi/gay, Oxford graduate [I'm of Celtic parentage], usual 'arty' interests - cinema / theatre / galleries / travel, Mediterranean food and wines [but non-smoker]; not really sporty type but enjoy some mountain-biking (and always cycle/walk when in NYC); favourite novelists Iris Murdoch / early (later stuff too formulaic) Patricia Cornwell / Jose’ Saramago; musical preferences range from Monteverdi to Marc Almond and Philip Glass. Dry sense of humour. Currently on a kind of Sabbatical (previously worked in international organizations in legal advice / management fields). Have a small place in the South of France which would be good for summer holidays when the children are older. (Parents / all grandparents all lived to mid or late 80s so no reason a priori why I shouldn't see children well into adulthood.) Currently living in the S. of France with occasional visits to US. Totally healthy. Not in a relationship.

YOU: Positive outlook; intelligent; at least University education; probably working in some sort of creative and/or professional field, financially secure; could be single or in a relationship, but welcoming of my involvement in the children's upbringing and also definitely wanting at least two children [I have a view that children should grow up with at least one brother or sister.] You probably live either East or West Coast, or maybe Europe. You are open minded enough not to mind the idea of an 'older' father ( you might even see the advantages - there are some...)

THE IDEA: You would be the custodial parent of the children but I would get to visit for at least a couple of months of the year and as they get older the children would come to stay with me for roughly half of school vacations [assuming they wanted to]. In other words a ‘friendly divorce’ type of arrangement. I would make sure they had a good time and you would get a rest from constant parenting. I would want a say in their education - I would especially want them to get a good musical and bilingual education from an early age. Obviously situations can change as time goes on and children's inclinations count for a lot but these are my broad-brush ideas. People say I relate well to children. Quite a few friends (seeing me with their children) have said 'you would make a good father'. It would be crucial that you and I would get on well together even though we didn't want to live together / be around one another for more than a couple of months of the year. Actual insemination would be with syringe (in case you were worried....) (or maybe through IUI if you prefer ?) . Please e-mail me if you are at all interested to discuss this further, in complete confidence that I will exercise [and expect] total discretion and total confidentiality around these exchanges. Please write FULLY ie with as much detail about yourself and your 'project' as you read here about me and mine. Pix (to exchange) and full details about you / your ideas essential. [Thanks for reading so far. Wishing only good things to all of us aching to become parents......]

Our program provides a comprehensive list of more than 200 egg donors that possess most physical or mental characteristics desired by a recipient family. We screen and select only those egg donors that fit our program's strict requirements. These egg donors possess characteristics of high intelligence that is reflected by outstanding scholastic achievement, and/or high test scores on standardized and/or graduate school entrance exams (E.g., SAT, ACT, GRE, LSAT, MCAT, GMAT). Our egg donors must be educated, intelligent and between the ages of 20 and 29. They must also be in excellent health, free of any sexually transmitted disease, and pass FDA screening. We only want to present our clients with egg donors who are genuinely interested in helping others in their quest to have a child.

Based upon interviews with potential recipients, our egg donor lists can be tailored to provide individuals with characteristics specific to the wishes of our future parents.

Our services also provide the option of having an open, semi-open or anonymous recipient/donor relationship. Because no two situations are ever alike, we strive to remain flexible and open to all client desires and needs. Please view our online database for egg donors that are currently available.

Sincerely,

I am a warm and caring guy, who is great with kids. I have a B.A. in Child Development, an M.S. in Homeopathy and have taught meditation to 3 - 5 year olds for the past 20 years. I used to do respite care with "special needs" kids, and have a reputation of being wonderful with infants (read: can get them to stop crying and go back to sleep!). I can offer references in that regard!!!

I am currently finishing a second M.S. degree in Ayurvedic medicine (natural medicine of India). I support myself by dancing professionally (see my website at http://www.prinzandrew.com ) and by doing healing work: Asian bodywork, homeopathy, Ayurvedic nutritional and lifestyle counseling, transformational movement therapy, etc. (www.pranicpower.com)

My Past: I almost fathered a child with a lesbian couple I was friends with and I was very excited about the prospects. They were going to be the primary parents and I was going to be the uncle-dad. Sadly, they started having challenges in their relationship and we stopped the process.

I would love to befriend a caring lesbian couple (or possibly single) who want to be the primary parents of a child. I sincerely feel I would be an awesome uncle-dad (and what family doesn't need extra childcare?!).

I am 5'6" (closer to the earth) and around 138 lbs. with an athletic build (all that dancing!). I take very good care of my health (vegetarian). I am a longtime meditator, so, I'm a fairly happy-go-lucky guy. I am in my forties and am playful and energetic. I can usually wear kids down faster than they can wear me down! :o)

My name is Melissa I am 25 and my partner's name is Tammy she is 37. We have been in a stable relationship for 8 years and are ready to start a family. I am a preschool teacher and Tammy was in chemical engineering. We are looking for someone who wants to be a parent just a much as we do.

We would love to co-parent with a gay man or couple who want to have a family. We would for the family to be in Michigan because all of our family is here.

If you any any questions please fell free to ask.

Hello, I'm a 32-year old attractive African-American lesbian currently in the Tulsa area (willing to relocate if needed). I am seeking a nice guy to become a sperm donor only or co-parent depending on the situation. I am financially stable, well educated, and very excited about the possibility of having children. It is long overdue and maybe you can help me achieve this goal. Financial and legal responsibility is optional but not required. Serious inquiries may contact me at oneshenita@hotmail.com. I am open to all races and sexual orientations (drug/disease free please).
