XYZ and me books...

**BC-MAV** · 01-30-2007, 12:18 PM

Couldn't find them with a search in this BB but I know they have been mentionned. I need them NOW!!!! DS is 6 and is asking lots of questions. I had to do the "sex talk" on the fly with some books I bought a while ago. I had to draw pictures too because none of the books had the exact situation in which he was conceived. So anyone remember who wrote the XYZ books? Where do you get them? Thanks!!!!

Hey I think I found it:

3. Before You Were Born
This author offers this book with many variations including a baby born from IVF, donor insemination, frozen embryo, donor egg, donor sperm (IVF), gestational carrier, traditional surrogacy, donor embryo, same sex female parents, same sex male parents. Janice Grimes. www.xyandme.com.

(Copied from that post about books) Good Luck!

I bumped the 2 thread for you; one for DE and the other for both DE and DS. I hope those are it.

MAV -

I bought the XYandMe book for some friends of mine and it was "ok" - better than nothing - I suppose. But the most perfect book for B's situation - would be - "From Out of My Body Your Soul Did Grow". It's an amazing book - but I haven't been able to find an active site for it - or I'd send you the link. It's 100% better than the other.

I think I will contact my friend's and see if the actual book has contact info in it.

Good Luck!
