I asked this in Pregnancy, but that place is dominated by females, and as sperm is something entirely within the male domain, I felt it was more appropriate to ask men.

I'm planning on using a sperm donor to have children (as I don't have any intention to be married or in a relationship- that won't change).

In Australia, it is an insanely long wait to use an anonymous donor clinic, so I'm going to find someone and "hire" them per se.

How much should I pay them?

Also- should I expect them to cover the health check, or should I? My mum says they should, and use it like a "resume" (You're healthy? Yes, ok, you're on the list)

I don't know if that's appropriate, or if I should.


I dunno.


What do you think?
