Hi Colette
a) It is illegal for donors to charge for sperm. However, if he has to travel to you dinner and a glass of red and a chat would be civilised. Occasionally I have been offered petrol money and I accept as I feel it would be rude to refuse but I have never asked for any reimbursemant.
b) Some donor want to transfer the sperm directly (NI=sex). Most, like myself, hand the sperm over in a bottle and the woman or her partner sucks it up in a 5ml syringe and squirts it where it needs to go.
If you want more advice contact me.
John
