From research to real life: how to talk to your child about donor conception
Are you planning donor treatment, currently going through it, or already parenting a donor-conceived child?
If so, you may have found yourself wondering:
"Should I talk to my child about donor conception?
And if so — how, when, and where do I even begin?"
Many parents feel uncertain, hesitant, or worried about saying the “wrong” thing.
If this resonates with you, please know: you are not alone — and this webinar was created with your questions in mind.
On 10 February 18:00 CET, join our free webinar with Dr. Olga and Cilla Holm (@jagvillhabarn), based on current research and clinical insights from the 2025 ESHRE Conference.
At ESHRE, leading researchers and clinicians in the area shared findings from international studies on the psychosocial wellbeing of donor-conceived children.
One message came through clearly:children benefit most when conversations about their origins are open, age-appropriate, and woven naturally into family life.
In this webinar, Olga and Cilla translate these research-based insights into real-life guidance, focusing on:
- how children at different ages understand donor conception
- why early and honest communication supports emotional security
- how to create your own family story, based on evidence — and adapt it to your personal values
This is not about “perfect wording” or having all the answers.
It’s about feeling supported, informed, and more confident as a parent.
After the lecture, there will be time for individual questions, so you can reflect on your own situation and leave the webinar with more clarity and reassurance.
