sooo much has happened since i posted last. first i thought my "day 1" for this cycle was on tuesday june 28th. i call rma and they say to come in tomorrow, wednesday the 29th for the ultrasound. initially i was told that this ultrasound would be done on day 3 (thursday). so i go in on wednesday and the doctor says, "no... today is probably you're day 1, not yesterday". then i had to go back on friday, july 1st. so we get up bright and early before we leave for the beach. luckily, this time the doctor says that everything looks good to try this cycle.
however, since there is some confusion about which day is "day 1", she wants us to go in on saturday, july 9 for an ultrasound and then depending on the results one of two things could happen. 1) we need to come back on sunday for another ultrasound and then hopefully inseminate on monday and tuesday OR 2) everything looks good on saturday so we have to come back to inseminate on sunday and monday
in other news, after a long time on the phone last week, we bought 10 vials of sperm. we had two donors in mind. one who was pretty much just like andrea, same ethnicity, same interests, same features. the other donor had similar ethnicity and features, but very different interests and beliefs. i told andrea that either one of the donors is fine with me. the donor we decided on was the latter. even though he had different interests and beliefs, the good thing about him is that his parents have four sets of twin siblings. and two couples who had used him shared that they were pregnant with multiples. one who had twins and one who had triplets. i think this was what caught andrea's attention. ;) she's all about getting the most bang for her buck! although, i'm pretty excited at the prospect of having twins too!
more updates to follow next week. until then we'll be doing four things... thinking positively, staying stress-free, praying, and crossing our fingers!! :)
