After our last attempt with our first donor in Dec last year we decided to take a well earnt break and start saving for a trip away to NYC so B could see his family. I promised myself that there would be no talk of babies ivf etc etc...a break was a break. We also came to the conclusion we would start searching for a younger donor. We knew it could take some time to find our new donor angel so we advertised at the start of June. We had several ladies email us and a few friends who wanted to help and one lady that wasnt so nice ( another story there) I spoke to them all for a few weeks but I think my mind was made up right from the very beginning. We emailed several times a day for the weeks leading up to before we headed over to NYC...I kept in contact with her while away too and finally when we returned back to Perth we met up for a coffee :)
Introducing our wonderful generous donor Rach
The wonderful woman who has offered to help us have our own little bubba, the woman who has helped restore our hope and faith...how can one stranger be so generous...I ask the question everyday, they are quite remarkable ladies.
Rach is just perfect, easy going and really easy to talk too. She is married with 2 little boys. We have had our initial specialist appointment and my specialist think she is a fantastic choice :) We also have just completed our 3 sessions of counselling and are now currently in our 3 months cooling off period which will end in January 2012. Rach is breastfeeding her youngest still who is only around 5 months so we will have to wait until she is done with that before we can cycle anyway. In those 3 months I will be tracking 1 of my cycles and then tracking a medicated cycle just to get things right before we start the real thing.
