After her first two babies died because of a congenital malformation, Aminah Hart decided to turn to IVF and an anonymous sperm donor to get pregnant again. The little Leila was born in 2012, perfectly healthy.
But Aminah wanted her daughter to know her father, so she contacted the sperm bank and got in touch with Scott.
In the following months, Aminah and Scott exchanged emails and photos. The little girl and her dad were as alike as two peas in a pod. When Aminah and Scott finally met, it was love at first sight!
The couple married last December on a Sorrento beach, in Victoria.
Aminah Harts tells the incredible story of her very modern family in the book How I met your father.
