Bio
Jeve (aka John and Steve) -WHAT?! The hybrid name works for Brangelina and look how many kids they have! We’re really just two strapping, young (shut up) homosexuals who are at the stage in our relationship where having a child just seems…well right. We have a Jack Russell named Lucy, and to substitute have contemplated shaving her, plopping her in a stroller and going for a walk in the park. Vanity kicked in when we thought strangers might actually think she resembled one of us. Jeve has been in partnership since 2002 and we adore each other immensely. Oh and just to clarify, (people have been wrong before) we’re partners of the DOMESTIC kind, NOT business, although the process of having a baby does seem a lot like a business transaction.

New Beginnings

I can’t believe it’s been 10 months since I last posted. Where do I begin? I’ll cut to the chase- STILL NOT PREGNANT. And to tell you the truth I thought this blog was over, but then a friend of mine, Carleen, inspired me. She said that maybe there… Read full post »

Take 2

Very sad news. We lost the little ones.

Words cannot express how both Steve and I feel.

They just weren't ready to enter this world yet.

But we're ok and our surrogate is ok. She's amazing.

We're trying again at the end of August.

A Double Twist

A few weeks ago Steve and I celebrated pregnancy with a group of our closest friends at Spice, a Thai restaurant in Chelsea. It was a joyous occasion- after all everything was going so well. And as we were telling the story of the day we produced our "specimens" I… Read full post »

Wanna See Something Cool?

These are actual photos of our embryos at 5 days old right before each one was implanted into our surrogate Stacy.

Waiting to find out if you're pregnant is PAINFUL. I'm trying to distract myself and not think about it, but too many things share a striking resemblance.

2-5-8-22-25-44

No, those are not last night's lotto numbers and no you won't have to sit through 6 seasons to find out their meaning.
44- the number of eggs that were retrieved from our donor last Thursday. Fertile is an understatement.

25- per our fertility clinic, the average number of eggs usually/… Read full post »

10.7

10.7mm- The measurement in thickness of our surrogate’s uterus lining. Apparently, this is a good thing. As you can imagine my knowledge of uteruses- is it uteruses or uteri?- is somewhat limited; however I DO know that this is a much more successful number than Johnny Weir’s score at… Read full post »

Still a Little Pink

Thank you to all for the heartfelt comments regarding last week’s post. My face(book) is still a little pink from the slap, but your honest thoughts and advice are well appreciated. I highlighted a few quotes that tickled my funny bone and certainly helped to mollify the sting:

Surrogates

Surrogates may have come in second at the box office, but Steve and I are first in line to get matched with one. That’s right. Per our agency we should have a surrogate by October. Then the real madness begins!

It's the East River. It separates Manhattan from Long Island City, Queens.

It also represents the current divide between me and my British Krumpet.

Gay Daddies of the Month: Z and Vielpunkt

What is it with all these gay penguins? From the censorship of the children’s book, “And Tango Makes Three,” to the shocking love triangle of Harry, Pepper and Linda, gay penguins have a long history of making headlines. I guess you can't blame mother nature for their existence.… Read full post »

We have a bone (KNEW that would get your attention!), a bone to pick with you that is. We have learned to accept your obsession with balls, especially soggy balls you found in the dog run drenched in overnight rain and dragged viciously through… Read full post »

There's an App for THAT!

Some of you may recall from our very first post that Steve's 3 favorite things are: To do lists, Home Depot (what a lesbian), and his iPhone. Now if only the iPhone had an app for finding a Baby Mama...
