Babysteps - Yes, I know what you mean about no regrets. As many things as I've gone through on this IF journey, I don't feel like I'd have done anything differently (well, little timing mistakes early on with the IUIs, things like that - but none of the major steps). So I don't expect to have any about the DE process. My only concern is that we're using an unproven donor. She's only 24, and all indications are that she'll be fabulous. But I can't boast of her many kids and multiple donations. I'm just hoping that this is the beginning of a good run for her - everyone has to start somewhere, right?
So, you're in CA? Are you up north here in the storms? It's nutty out there!
