A mum has told how she inseminated herself with a donor’s sperm, kept her pregnancy secret and hired a £2k birthing partner so she could have a baby 'on her own terms'. Skylar, 28, decided to go it alone and have a baby via sperm donor in September 2021 because she didn't want to 'rely on someone else' or 'share' her child.
The single mum always said she wanted to have a baby at the age of 30, whether she had a partner or not, but at the age of 27 she decided she couldn't wait any longer. She found a donor online who sent a sample of his semen in the post so she could inseminate herself.
