After eight years as a couple in Helsinki, Kaj and Niko decide they want a child. Adopting is slow and hard, so Niko proposes co-parenting, and they start meeting women willing to raise a baby together with them. It looks hopeless at first: how far can you trust someone you barely know, whose sperm is to be used, and how do you plan a family outside the norm in a world still built for straight couples? Alongside, the author recalls how the boy who once hid his sexuality grew into a man ready to be a father.
