    #127 Cricketer Megan Schutt On Sperm Donation And Her Premmie Baby

    Megan Schutt is an Australian fast bowler who is mum to little Rylee.  Schutt and her wife Jess became parents through the process of reciprocal IVF, where Megan's egg is fertilised using donor sperm and implanted into Jess's womb. Despite falling pregnant quickly, Jess' pregnancy was high-risk and led to Rylee's premature birth at only 24 weeks during the height of COVID-19.  Megan shares how her family navigated the sperm donation process, Jess' high-risk pregnancy and how they took care of Rylee after her premature birth. 2025 Raunchy Ranch Calendar IS STILL ON SALE!  https://budgysmuggler.com.au/products/two-doting-dads-raunchy-ranch  Buy our book, which is now available in-store! https://www.penguin.com.au/books/two-doting-dads-9781761346552  If you need a shoulder to cry on:  Two Doting Dads Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/639833491568735/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheTwoDotingDads  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/twodotingdads/  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@twodotingdads   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
