This is a beautifully designed website. But I also think it's quite... problematic that the child's journey begins with the egg, as if the unfertilized egg is the child — and skips any mention of the sperm and the father.

It feels like this site is almost erasing the father from the IVF process.

Perhaps it was a sperm donor? There doesn’t necessarily have to be a traditional father.
That is a good point, although if that is the case the story should have mentioned it for perspective.
