Wow! I like the new digs! Very nice.
Kristen - Thanks for getting us started over here. Sorry the donor you were interested in isn't available, but I think you're right that that makes sense since you're not going to have to use a donor anyway! Your NY trip sounds awesome, btw.
Cathy - I'm sorry about your pup. That's really nice that they give you a pawprint, though. I'm glad you're getting to start stims tonight- sounds like you've got a fabulous number of follies all waiting to grow, grow, grow.
Kate - I'm with you on not meeting the donor. The voice was a big issue for me, and DP pointed out that we've really little to gain and lots to lose. We love our donor on paper and from what we've heard from the agency and our clinic. We'll leave it at that.
Kelli - I like that you and DH are taking time to "detoxify." It's always tough to take time out, but it's so vital to making this process bearable.
Jana - Congrats on getting to start BCPs already - I can't believe you're already onto your next round. Yay!
Janice - A big YAY for your shrinkink cyst. Woo-hoo! You're on your way.
Hi to everyone else. Hope everyone's having a good Friday!
