IMagicCat: That'll be cool. I donated eggs 9 years ago, now I'm using my own
I hope you get matched soon....why did you choose a GA clinic over one in NC? I know there are some good ones in SC, but I've never read anything about the NC clinics...maybe there aren't many? Here where I live (right at the Chattanooga, TN line) there is only 1 clinic and they don't have great recommendations.
Kinz: I took Lupron when I donated I think? I don't remember too many mood swings on any of the meds...I really think that it depends a lot on the person. Some people have major mood swings and others don't even know. It's been 9 years since my donation though, so who knows what the shots will do to me now LOL So you'll start BCP's in June...right?
KandyGurl: Still around? So what exactly is the Lap procedure? I'm not up on all the procedures, so I like to ask
So once that is over, what kind of wait time do they set before beginning a cycle? I see you mentioned mid summer....so July maybe? That's really not too far away....time flies!
LaurenGator: So what steps do you have to take to go through a donor cycle with your sister? I'm assuming you both have to be on the same AF cycle to make this work? I don't really remember too much about when I donated (it has been 9 years ...LOL), but I remember it had to be coordinated with the couple getting the eggs, just not sure exactly how it was coordinated. It all seemed to fly by....is your process pretty quick as well?
Anu: So you have 2 frozen embabies! How exciting....when will you be thawing them? Well
! How did the first cycle go for you? I mean I know you're going through an FET now....but did any of the fresh embryo's take? Was the medicine hard to deal with? Any tips for us that are waiting to go through a fresh cycle? I'm assuming your meds for FET are a bit less intensive?
Well, it's so nice to know that other people are going to GRS! I'm still on BCP's and will start Lupron on the 15 I think? I got my calendar yesterday and will get my meds on Wednesday....wow were they expensive! LOL I'll try to get a list going, so it'll be easy to follow along with everyone at GRS, maybe we'll run in to each other during our visits too!
