I'll admit, I've wanted to blog but haven't had much to say as I'm heading into round three. This afternoon I go into California IVF for my follicle check. Hopefully, thanks to the meds, the follicles and the lining will be to Dr. Lovely's liking. If all goes well, I will be getting the "trigger shot" tonight to kick start ovulation and on Thursday go in for my third, and hopefully FINAL IUI. I say final not because I'm giving up, even though we said we'd only try three times, but because financially and emotionally I'm drained. Insurance, as you know, isn't covering any of this and my damn money tree never sprouted in the backyard.
I will admit, I'm a little excited as we've switched donors and this new one is (one paper) perfect, but I got a chance to see his baby pictures. The donor is described as 6'4", dark brown hair and green eyes. He's Italian and Greek. CCB says he resembles the following celebrities: Been Affleck, Carmine Gotti and Paul Adelstein. He's also an open donor, which means at 18 the child will have an opportunity to have some form of contact if they wish. #11798 is also young (early 20's) and hopefully that means some healthy active sperm . Wait... does that make me a cougar?
