Can I carry a baby where it is my partners egg fertilized with my brothers sperm?

My partner and I really want to have a baby and we want it to be a part of both of us!! That being said she has no brothers or male's in her family that could fertilize one of my eggs. I would be the one to carry the baby and the only way for us to do this is to either use a donor or to fertilize my partners egg with my brothers sperm. That way it would definitely be "Our" child genetically speaking!! It would be our child either way!! Is this possible? Or is it totally gross and unheard of??? I would really love any opinion on the matter!!!

Yes, this is possible, and its a very creative way to have the genes from both of you!
Genetically speaking, it would be the same as you being a gestational surrogate mother for your brother, which happens regularly.
One thing I would caution, make sure you deliver the baby in a state that will recognize same sex parenting and adoption. (California is one of those states, I believe.) Get a lawyer before getting pregnant and do the paperwork right so that there will be no legal problems later in life.
Best wishes!
