Ttc - are you on stims now or starting soon? Xx

 

[Mells54]

TTC, if you only knew. This donors picture looked like one of those "glamour shots" you get done at the mall.

 

[MoBaby]

Omg Mells that's crazy! Lol. Funny though!

 

[everhopeful]

Hi all,

Does anyone remember the site that has the days/stages of what embryo is doing/attaching etc? I remember looking at it on last cycle and can't find it now..

Thanks xx

Ever- I'm doing acupuncture for the first time in my life this cycle- really hope it works! Hope the TWW is not driving you too nuts! (And you also Flower and Turkey!)

Lotus- Glad to hear you will keep checking in, hope the next few months are restful and rejuvenating.

Sandy- Good luck at your WTF appointment, really hope you can get started again very soon and that your doc has some answers.

L4Hope- How's being pregnant!? Have you had any morning sickness?

Mo- Best of luck on your lining scan on Monday!

AFM- Had my second delestrogen shot and started estrace last night, my first lining scan is on Friday! Only three weeks left!

 

[everhopeful]

Edamame - not long to go now!! I do think the acupuncture helps. It's not cheap though, so another added expense but I thought I would give it the best go I could!!

I am going slightly nuts!! I look forward to this bit but I then very quickly go crazy!

Hope everyone else is doing great. Xx

Mells - OMG I do remember those glamour shots! hahahahaha...well its a good thing you didn't pick her!

Ever - I start my stims on Monday....scared, nervous, excited, apprehensive, and happy all at the same time! I just am so ready to be pregnant!

Turkey you should test!! It may show by now and the trigger should be gone LOL. But if you are waiting that is great! More will power than me!

 

[Turkey16]

I'm too scared!!

 

[FirstTry]

Mo: love your siggy, ice ice baby! I can't wait to pick up our ice babies next month

Turkey: I would start testing, but everyone is different. Would an early BFN really upset you? Or would you rather know where you stand?

 

[LotusBlossom]

Oh yeah, Turkey! Your BFP could show up tomorrow morning! I got one on 6dp5dt and the other at 7dp5dt.

Ya.. picking out donor sperm was I don't know why but the last thing I wanted was some dude's portfolio pics while he was being a waiter and trying to become an actor. There is one sperm bank located in California that seemed to be FULL of those! Then I tried one that was supposed to cater to women that wanted brains, and they had a huge number of men with advanced degrees, but they didn't give you adult photos, nor would they tell you the age of the donor at the time of donation! Well with me and my advanced age I felt it was necessary to know how old these sperm were, and they wouldn't even reveal the birth year So I ended up at www.xytex.com and they had a mix of the 2 (actors or wannabe actors, blue collar type guys and also those with advanced degrees. Even better you could pay 1 flat rate for a 3 month subscription to look at ALL photos. Some of the guys opted to show none, and others showed only baby photos, but I limited my search to those that showed adult photos too. I know it shouldn't matter but I wanted to know what he looked like as an adult! So that was the best bank for me.

I think egg donors are a little different. Since they don't freeze them, and they go through the whole IVF cycle at the same time as they are preparing your uterus. Still I'm sure a lot of the photos, and the same demographic information would be the same.

It is amazing that these people are willing to help us out!! I thank heavens that they were!

HAHA.. much like the whole actor portfolio that I felt I was looking at for some of them from the bank in California!
