Medicine Man

Today I called the pharmacy to arrange payment and delivery of my meds! (Femera, Progesterone suppositories and Ovidril) I'm now awaiting the arrival of the Medicine Man lol I'm so happy that they deliver but the delivery times I was told were somewhere between 7:30pm and 10:00pm. Yawn! Feels like my little pup and I have been starring at the door all night. I really hope that he comes tonight, but I know that there is a possibility that it could be delievered tomorrow since I told them I don't need it by tonight. I will need it by Saturday if AF shows tomorrow. Common Medicine Man and AF!!!

Soooo he finally showed up at 10:15. I open the bag like a kid on Christmas and only two things are in the bag. My Ovidril shot was missing! I call the pharmacy, leave a message and then go to bed.

Lalala

Still patiently waiting for Aunt Flo. Hoping she arrives within the next couple of days. I've been having all the typical symptoms prior to her arrival for like a week now.  Nothing else to report!

AF TWW

Omg it's almost time for our 1st IUI cycle!! We are currently awaiting AF's arrival, she should be here in approximately 14 days so we're technically in a TWW.  I never thought I would want her to come but I can't wait. Hopefully this will be the last time I see her for a while. 

Baby dust and sticky vibes to all!! 

Sperm Dream

On Friday night I had a dream that our sperm got delivered to our house. The UPS driver delivered us a garbage can full of ice cubes with little vials floating around in it. Later that night I was set to ovulate so I told DW it's time!! And we went on a hunt in our garbage can for the vial with our donor number on it. For some reason there were several other donor vials in there. I couldn't remember our donor number and I was so frazzled. Then I woke up. 

We are not insemming at home so I have no idea what brought this dream on. haha As for the donor confusion it could be because I have always been worried about a mix up or buying the wrong vials. When I put the order in for our our sperm, I sent the lady I was talking to at the bank a photo of our donor and said this is him right? She said "Yup that's him" and "Ooooo he's a cutie!" My experience with CAN-AM Cryoservices was a really good one. They always answered my millions of emails, they sent me a courtesy email letting me know that Xytex wanted the vials back for another customer, then saved the vials for a couple days until DW and I decided how many we wanted. Ann our representative was just so nice and seemed really excited for DW and I. She wished us much luck and said she hoped to hear from us soon about a pregnancy.

We own...

5 vials of Sperm!! And now we wait for CD1. According to my pink pad app it's about 24 days away. I have a feeling is gonna be a loooong wait. Then the wait for ovulation, IUI and the dreaded but exciting two week wait!! 

We've decided!

We now have until Monday to decide. But our minds are made up. We will be purchasing all 5 vials and will take what we can get, be that one, two or no babies. Hoping and praying for at least one bundle of joy tho. If it's only one we are blessed with we will cross the sibling road if and when we are ready. We are not totally against having an only child either.

Our dr advises us to buy one at a time, he seems pretty confident that I won't have a problem. I kinda get offended at that cause how would he know!? I mean he is a dr but plenty of ppl with no known issues take many tries to conceive. We really like this donor and he is no longer in the program nor does he have any vials to be found anywhere! So we really can't miss out on this opportunity.

So Monday we order sperm then wait for CD1 which should be happening around Nov 15!!!

Donor Dilemma

DW and I are torn. Our 1st choice donor has only 5 vials available and is no longer in the program. We were really hoping for two pregnancies = two children.  5 may be enough or maybe not. We have to decide by tomorrow as the bank in the US wants them for a client. 
Guess there is never a way go know what will be enough. Anyone have a crystal ball? Lol

Hopefully I will get pregnant within the first few tries. Then we'll have a couple for a shot at number two. I guess we could get another donor too if need be. My sister and I are from different fathers and it didn't bother us much. And we never refer to ourselves as 1/2 siblings! We're just sisters. We look completely different and have totally different personalities too and it really doesn't matter. 

But maybe with donor concieved children it might be better cause they would have that 100% blood relative when they don't know the other 50% of their biology?  Ahhh I really don't know.  

I'm so paranoid that we could buy all 5 and end up with twins. My grandmother had twins and the donor has twin brothers!! Combo that with the fact that I will be taking femera!! If we had twins we would be done! Lol The other fact of the matter is we could end up with 5 used up vials and no baby :(
