Our donor is the same - he's donated to people in different parts of the country but only one person/couple in each area. He also sends us an update whenever a new baby is born and we have a list of the first names and the geographical area of each child (of those whose parents have agreed to do so - there are an additional three children that we know exist but not where or their names/genders). That way if our child comes home from uni some time saying 'this is my new boy/girlfriend, X from Thistown' then we can suggest they ask a few pointed questions about X's family background. At the end of the day, people move - we now live 60 miles from where Ember was conceived and born and there are other children conceived by our donor in our now nearest city. We know their names and genders though, which I think is more useful than just an assumption that kids that grow up 30 miles apart will never meet.
Ruby, I've no great advice to you on the thinking outside the box plan, but I'm really sorry this wasn't your month and will be keeping my fingers crossed that next month is. The logistical challenge can't be fun.
Daisy, how did it go at the docs?
It's Ember's third birthday tomorrow. I'm finding it quite surreal remembering that at this moment three years ago I was in early labour, the pool was being set up and I was eating my last meal before the birth (egg and toast). And soon we'll be doing it all again!

Any new developments there for you yet?? You will have a baby soon! I feel it!
I'd forgotten how ooky sperm is...every time I laughed (which was often) some came out even though I was on a mountain of pillows so high I could barely breathe! 
and the other is a shot of her girl bits. You can see three little lines which is supposed to be a girl (they say it looks like a little hamburger). For boys, you see a little turtle head. So here's to hoping they got it right!
bump pix!!! It's so cute!!
