Abstract
ABSTRACT The process of family formation for female partners is unique. Little research, outside of the nursing literature, has been conducted to help counselors address the needs of female partners. In this qualitative study, Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) was utilized to (a) explore the experiences of female partners receiving third-party fertility treatments during family formation and (b) examine the role of counseling in the process. A total of six participants, three couples, participated in this study. Three themes emerged: family preparation, family issues, and counselor competency. Recommendations and directions for future research are discussed.
