Inconceivable

Heartbreak, Bad Dates and Finding Solo Motherhood

De: Alexandra Collier

Narrado por: Fiona Macleod

Alexandra Collier was a writer living in a light-filled Brooklyn brownstone in New York with the man she loved. But when she woke up to a ravenous hunger to have a baby that her partner didn't share, she had to make a choice between love or a future family.

She chose family, which catapulted her life back to Melbourne where, at 37, she found herself single, heartbroken and living with her parents.

Ally began dating with dedication with sometimes hilarious and often soul-crushing results. But like many single women approaching 40, she found that her reproductive timeline was rapidly outpacing her romantic life. So she began to explore another controversial option: conceiving a baby with donor sperm.

From defying her family's expectations to searching for sperm and navigating pregnancy alone, Ally deftly takes us through the ecstatic, complicated and demanding path to becoming a solo mother by choice.
