Sex, Drugs & Lullabies
Contains some strong language, adult humour and some scenes of a sexual nature.

Available for over a year

Two dads, a baby and one on the way. Michael and Wes (@twodaddiesUK) talk about surrogacy and using an egg donor. Natalie and Amanda hear about the complexity of UK law when using a surrogate and the hard work involved in finding the right egg donor. "We are always going to have to explain where she came from and how she became part of our family." They also explore the need for clinics to adapt to make the process easier for gay couples. "One clinic has taken our feedback on board and has replaced its material and now produces gay material."
