This UK Mom Was Able To Conceive Her Child Via AI For Only $30
Many Americans who wish to become parents but have struggled with either infertility or simply lack of a male partner have considered using AI– in other words, obtaining a qualified donor.
But, in the United States, undergoing this process can be quite costly. In fact, according to US Fertility, the price of obtaining a donation can actually range from three hundred dollars to a whopping four thousand dollars, depending on where you live and what bank you go through.
So, when one single mom from the UK shared on TikTok that she conceived her son, Lorenzo, with the help of a donation that cost just thirty dollars, the social media community was floored.
Bailey Ennis, the twenty-four-year-old mom, recently gave birth to Lorenzo this past July. She cited wanting to start a family for a long time but lacked a male partner– so she eventually decided to take matters into her own hands.
Bailey also explained how she was able to achieve such a low-cost solution. According to her, she simply found a donor website and sifted through the profiles of healthy male donors.
“If you get pregnant via…donation and you do not go through a clinic or bank, the total cost is really minimal,” she said.
And after Bailey believed she had found the right donor, she coordinated a meeting over coffee before accepting the donation for just thirty dollars.
Then, the donor visited her home to deliver the sample. And with it in hand, Bailey used a kit– including ovulation tests, sterile cups, and syringes– to perform the fertilization on herself.

“It was really easy and not awkward at all,” she recalled.
Now, since delivering Lorenzo, Bailey has been over the moon about her decision to start a family as a single mother She has also spoken out against naysayers who have tried to disparage her decision on TikTok.
“Best choice ever,” Bailey wrote on one video while holding her baby boy.
And now, she is even planning to undergo the process again to conceive a second child.
Bailey’s donor has agreed to be her donor again and actually consented to provide samples for as many as children she wants.
This has delighted the new mom, who was hopeful that Lorenzo would get to grow up surrounded by blood-related siblings.
