The great thing about this whole thing is that when the girls get older and have questions about their ancestry or medical questions on their maternal side they won't have any issues getting that information. They are being raised closely with Julie, so there shouldn't be any awkwardness latter on when they need to ask "female" questions, also.
@@junbh2 That is not what Josey meant. For example, does breast cancer run in Julie's family, Kidney cancer, heart disease, diabetes, dementia etc. Also, more simple things too like when Julie had her first period. Now that the girls are over 6 that will be a question in a couple of years. These are things only Julie can answer for them.
this was so nice to see. my boyfriend was a sperm donor before we met, and he struggled with the fact he felt no attachment or strong emotions about the child at birth. He's fond of her as his friends' baby, but he has no fatherly feelings about her. this makes it feel "okay", and not abnormal. He also decided to never do it again (despite being asked by 3 separate ladies afterward!) SO you're not alone in that you enjoy them, but you don't feel like being a parent or have interest in parenting at all!
so I can give a few of the reasons I know of, although I'm sure he has deeper rooted reasons. Firstly, it took about 8 months of trying, and this was emotionally and physically trying for everyone involved. There is kind of an unwritten code for sperm donors that you don't give up until the couple/mother gives up, it can be devastating to them to back out. Secondly, there are legal issues that can make a well meaning sperm donor end up paying child support down the line, since he wasn't anonymous the state could recognize him as the father if the couple ever sought welfare. (there was a well publicized case in Kansas the same year the baby was born- 2014 ). Third, the child ended up with a few health issues, and has severe allergies. I cannot remember the name, but she has a blood disorder that he and the bio mother must've both been carriers for. To my knowledge its not very serious, but it will need to be monitored as she grows. When it came out it was genetic from both of them, the couple decided against him for a second child. Fourth, he simply didn't feel he could make a child in the other situations. Basically when other lesbians found out a man they knew/their friends knew had been a sperm donor, many saw it as a chance to get a baby quickly and for free, since he'd done it for the original couple. You'd be surprised to know the other women he only barely knew, but they all jumped to him because "you did it for ____" However, going back to point 2, he wasn't comfortable with doing something so personal for acquaintances. Some of them weren't in stable homes, or didn't have income, etc, and he didn't want to feel responsible for putting a child into a situation he couldn't 100% trust. Similar to how Julie said she didn't have any concerns about their parenting and raising the girls, he couldn't say that about them. That last thing I can say is that overall it's a confusing emotional journey for him as she grows. Since he isn't close to the parents anymore, its an awkward relationship. My opinion is that if you're going to be a donor its either to parents you're veryyy close to (like how Julie was their best friend and the surrogate was their sister-in-law) or that y ou have no attachments to (like anonymous) I feel in both of these cases, you'd have a defined role in the child's life (aunt/uncle, or stranger). My boyfriend is more in-between, his contract says he has no obligations to do anything, which he preferred, and he has no real relationship with her (ie. child doesn't really know him) yet the parents sent him fathers day cards, and have the child give him Christmas gifts. He did have a conversation saying he did not want to be portrayed as her father, didn't want her to call him Dad/Daddy, and didn't seek that relationship, which per the contract, they knew when they asked him. But as I said, I know this is an odd emotional thing for him, someone who didn't want to be a father, but wanted to help his friends fulfill their dream of motherhood. It's hard to imagine the future of a human's life when they haven't even been conceived yet! If the child ends up pursuing a relationship down the road, he's open to that. TL;DR So this is very long, and it might read oddly, but at the end of the day, he's the biological father of a little girl who loves her 2 mommies, her grandparents, her aunts/uncles, has a little sister (from another donor) and two cats and does sports. She is a happy child with a happy life, and doesn't *need* him. He will be open to a relationship with her if she wants one herself when shes old enough to understand (shes 4 now). She doesn't even really know what a dad is, has never had one, has never asked for one. She is happy with her mommies who have been there for her since day one. Those are who she loves. The other women by the way, each found a donor within 2 years of asking him. Whether or not they're in good living situations, I do not know. I don't know the women. If someone were pursuing either using or being a sperm donor, I'd just recommend really sitting down and understanding what the other party wants. If you'd want to be an involved 'father figure' make sure they're okay with that (some people don't want a 'third parent' involved). If you'd want no real contact beyond medical conversations or when the child pursues it, make sure they know and accept that (not finding out youre called 'daddy' and getting a fathers day card, and not disappointing the other parents when you really aren't interested in the child, which can be a blow when they might've been hoping you'd be involved). At the end of the day, he gave them the gift of being mothers, parents, and they are their own family unit. He sees them a few times a year.
You three are such nice people! How wonderful that Julie loved you guys enough to go thru all she did! This is a beautiful story and so amazing that you share it with all of us!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Julie you are loving kindness overflowing, this made me cry, because I'm a mom of five grown children,nthe youngest an angel now. What a precious gift you gave Adam and Eric, and what a beautiful family you all are!
You are one of the most selfless people I’ve ever heard/seen. You couldn’t have donated your eggs to a better couple. These girls are gorgeous. The world needs more people like you.
Julie there are not words to express how much I love what you did for your friends. You ALL make a wonderful family-I love getting to watch the girls grow and love seeing how you all 5 interact. You are truly an amazing friend! Thank you for videos and allowing us all to have a sneak peek into your world!! much love to you all
Awww I so loved this story! What a great idea to do this video not only for everyone involved but as education for the public. I had wondered some questions that were asked. Best wishes for your beautiful family. 🥰
You are such a badass! Being an egg donor is no easy feat. It’s not just “here have my eggs!” It’s medicines, shots, monitoring. It’s hard work. You are amazing. Beautiful babies 🥰
This was fascinating. I could never do this personally, but it's almost an interesting reminder that everyone is just so different (and that's a good thing!). Those girls are so so cute and I'm really happy Erik and Adam were able to have a family together.
Love This! On behalf of a mom who couldn't have a bio baby (and who always wanted to adopt as a 1st choice anyway) thank you for your selflessness. For those of us who want nothing more in this world to be parents this means everything
I love this video and the situation so much. As a private donor agreement sperm donor, I'm totally on the same page. I've personally chosen the couples I've donated to and it makes me so happy to see the love my recipients have for their children. Open, honest and responsible gamete donation like this, is so beautiful.
I regularly donate blood, I am registered to be an organ donor, I also have plans to be a surrogate in the future, but for some reason the one thing I can’t seem to convince myself to do is donate my eggs. I’m not exactly sure why but it’s something I don’t think I’ll ever have the courage to do so I really do admire you for being able to do that for a well deserving, beautiful couple ❤️ Such a selfless and amazing act of love and kindness ❤️
Julie I think you did a Wonderful thing for these guys. Eric and Adam are Great Fathers. I think it's Great that you guys stay in touch. Oh I like the New Hair Cut. It looks good on you.
This is so cool! I’m thinking about donating to couples who are in need. I don’t really want kids of my own but I think it would be really cool to do for couples that do.
@@jadecollins7693 true. We parents do hope to get grandkids, though. We can be grandparents by working with children at the local school. Helping our future leaders. Yay
Although it’s your choice whether or not you want kids I think you would be an amazing mother! Kudos to you for helping a loving couple have these two beautiful gifts
Julie you are BEAUTIFUL inside and out!! You're part of an amazing McFamily!! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. Looking forward to more videos in 2019!!...3!!😊💟🐞
absolutely love you. the relationship you have with the mchusbands is so damn sweet. just think of it, you would have been an aunt either way if u were egg donor or not haha.
🌟Julie you look SO CUTE with your hair short..So Happy you got to visit your besties and your precious nieces!! Love your honest answers to the questions...Hope to see LOTS more of you with the girls!!😍👍
I watch the McHusbands religiously. I am also an adoptive mom. Don’t be shocked when these girls are older that they don’t see you as aunt but as their mother. Not that there is anything wrong with that. But I would like to know if the girls when they become teens and young people if they do recognize you as a mom, how would all three of you feel if they wanted to call you that especially since you are involved in their lives? And I say this become I have parents a child to adult hood that is adopted and our adoption is open and I have been in the infertility/adoption community a long time.
annagitana1 that’s just not how it works though, she IS their biological mother even if she is not in the “mom” role, and people often do view their biological mother/father as their parents. It’s totally possible to appreciate your adoptive parents while still placing importance on your biological parent(s). The relationship they have doesn’t matter. There are many people who see their sperm donors who they’ve never met as their real father ! The good thing is that this woman seems to be involved in their lives and the twins won’t grow up wondering where they came from!
@@XxgabriellabxX I'm studying this in Uni and this is not always the case either. It really depends on all the people involved. Sometimes it will be a parent-child relationship but in many instances, it isn't and the children have no bond with their donor. Children view the people who care for them as mother/father or both and it has little to do with genetics. And btw I've taken 3 psychology classes, a family class and other childhood classes cause I'm in Child Studies and I'm also in classes with people that have worked with donors.
so true, its really about who was there and raised them, who cuddled and loved them. I feel if anything the relationship would just be a "cool aunt" or something. the motherly bond just won't exist.
Oh God, They are so cute!!!! It seems to me that I have already seen a video with you, but you were talking about your egg donation experience with a friend of yours. If I am not mistaken, thay had a surrogacy program and 2 beautiful girls were born. It 's so cool that you help other people to make their dreams come true! You are a very good person! What about your health? Does the stimulation has any impact on your health?
You are so selfless and generous. I really don’t think anyone could hope for a better egg donor. You gave the ultimate gift. Erik and Adam are amazing parents and it’s obvious you all have a special bond. We need more people like you 3 in the world. 💗
Addisen seems to really like Julie, though Everest is just as keen to sit with Julie. I also think that underneath Julie’s tough exterior, she really is very maternal. Julie is an amazing friend to Erik and Adam and just wants them all to be happy. Erik gave Julie a lovely hairstyle, which emphasises her good looks. I hope that Julie will, one day, have her own family; she is a lovely young lady.xxxxx
Again , keeping it All real and Family close together goes for a solid Foundation. Julie look so wonderful with baby girls! 🌸🌼🌺their so C.U.T.E. Children urs to embrace. Smile. Somebunny in Texas love you!
This is amazing to see! As someone who probably doesn’t want to have kids of my own, I would love to donate my eggs and be able to have a relationship with the child/ren like you do. Too bad my family health history isn’t the best :/
Really cool Q&A kind of reminds me of the multiple questions I got when my twins were little I think these kind of questions should be answered and asked by everyone that has kids Uncle Grandpa because children are life-changing experience and it's nice to reflect thanks to Eric Adam Julie Everest Addison all the love you share
She is not the mother... She is the donor who gave the chance the couple to be parents... These girls have wonderful parents and she is a aunt who donated her eggs...
Your an amazing lady I would do what u Did to give a couple baby or babies is amazing thing to do ,and to help Erik and Adam with them having 2 beautiful baby girls was awesome what u did!!!! If u we're here I would give u a hug. Btw your hair looks great.
I could never be an egg donor 😔☹ it would break my heart to see the babies. I'm already a mom so maybe that plays a lot in with it. That's wonderful that you did though. You made a family happy, that's amazing!
I think this is a interview that recognizes the cheesiness of these questions viewers probably wanted answer, yet is still sincere and nicely done. I wonder if it wouldn’t have looked like this (or even happened) if it had been an egg donor for a male-female parents. I think the mom would probably feel competitive or at least weird about it. I think if the questions were not cheesy it could be better for either scenario though
I find it AMAZING what you did for Adam and Erick :) They are awesome daddies to the girls.. you gave them an amazing gift.. one day the girls will thank you for being an AMAZING friend to the guys and an amazing aunt to them

No wonder the girls are so beautiful! Look at the three of you! Those girls will always love you Julie. What a great family you all are

I'm sure they have other female relatives! Aunts and grandmothers and older cousins.

Nothing can replace a mother. We need to be honest about this.

@phantasma616 can you PLEASE explain all the reasons why he never wants to do it again? Details are important!
phantasma616 - BEST scenario all around. I feel this is the best for everyone.

Alexis Rose yes, they were friends and now sort of drifted apart due to moving and such. I'm not sure why that's funny?
@@phantasma616 alexis sky is extremely immature
They are beautiful but this would be to hard for me
Cathy W I agree! I have a STRONG motherly instinct,,, I couldn’t
Egg donation is like adoption for me. I could never do it. Sorry.
@@greenpeas154 good thing you never have to then!
@@jenniferd.6401 Of course, noone can force me to donate my eggs!
Cathy W - I think it was probably not as difficult for her because she doesn’t want to be a parent. And didn’t carry or give birth to them.
Truly awesome Julie for your incredible generosity and good heart to be part of these gorgeous babies and amazing daddies 😍🤩 3

Thanks for the update! Are you prepared for the girls possibly wanting much more of a relationship with you as they get older and hit puberty?
Love your family. All family's should be so lucky!
I watch the McHusbands religiously. I am also an adoptive mom.
Don’t be shocked when these girls are older that they don’t see you as aunt but as their mother. Not that there is anything wrong with that. But I would like to know if the girls when they become teens and young people if they do recognize you as a mom, how would all three of you feel if they wanted to call you that especially since you are involved in their lives?
And I say this become I have parents a child to adult hood that is adopted and our adoption is open and I have been in the infertility/adoption community a long time.
I disagree. They don't have a parent-child relationship with her so they will never view her as their mom. They know her well but in a different role.
annagitana1 that’s just not how it works though, she IS their biological mother even if she is not in the “mom” role, and people often do view their biological mother/father as their parents. It’s totally possible to appreciate your adoptive parents while still placing importance on your biological parent(s). The relationship they have doesn’t matter. There are many people who see their sperm donors who they’ve never met as their real father ! The good thing is that this woman seems to be involved in their lives and the twins won’t grow up wondering where they came from!

THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO EVER ! #BigFAN
This is amazing to see! As someone who probably doesn’t want to have kids of my own, I would love to donate my eggs and be able to have a relationship with the child/ren like you do. Too bad my family health history isn’t the best :/
OMG she's so cute and so funny I just love her you couldn't have picked a better mom for the girls
"do you ever feel like a plastic bag?" lol i needed an answer
Really cool Q&A kind of reminds me of the multiple questions I got when my twins were little I think these kind of questions should be answered and asked by everyone that has kids Uncle Grandpa because children are life-changing experience and it's nice to reflect thanks to Eric Adam Julie Everest Addison all the love you share
Omg I thought the title said 'Q&A/review'
So adorable!!!
It’s so strange, she’s a mom, yet she...isn’t? I don’t really know how to put it but I’m happy for how everything worked out for them all 🤍
Ahora son pequeños.
i really like julie she's a great friend...
She is not the mother... She is the donor who gave the chance the couple to be parents... These girls have wonderful parents and she is a aunt who donated her eggs...
Your an amazing lady
I would do what u
Did to give a couple baby or babies is amazing thing to do ,and to help Erik and Adam with them having 2 beautiful baby girls was awesome what u did!!!!
If u we're here I would give u a hug.
Btw your hair looks great.
*You're an
This is gonna sound weird but if I had a kid I would choose a donor like you. You seem to be a good hearted person.
erik and Adam could both voice an audiobook
Julie your so awesome with the Girls!! you can tell the really love you:)
*you're
I could never be an egg donor 😔☹ it would break my heart to see the babies. I'm already a mom so maybe that plays a lot in with it. That's wonderful that you did though. You made a family happy, that's amazing!
Their so CUTE I know I’m destined to be a mom 🥰
I think this is a interview that recognizes the cheesiness of these questions viewers probably wanted answer, yet is still sincere and nicely done.
I wonder if it wouldn’t have looked like this (or even happened) if it had been an egg donor for a male-female parents. I think the mom would probably feel competitive or at least weird about it.
I think if the questions were not cheesy it could be better for either scenario though
The sole story of their lives and how they came from love, I think you should be honered...
I find it AMAZING what you did for Adam and Erick :) They are awesome daddies to the girls.. you gave them an amazing gift.. one day the girls will thank you for being an AMAZING friend to the guys and an amazing aunt to them
