Donor picked FINALLY!!!. I am glad I have a few people in my corner to discuss these things.
My cousin was very blunt about not using the donor who wants to be a father. It is easy to say what you will do when the child is not here yet. He could totally flip the script once everything is sad and done. Then I am stuck in a drama situation. That is not the move for me.
I don’t even have to keep in touch with the other guy after I am pregnant. He is just helping me out and that is it.
I am sure my mind can change as much as it needs to. Right now I have the donor picked. I am optimistic. More optimistic than doing my IUI‘s. I know this could possibly not work. I feel it has a great chance of working. Even more than the 10% chance the doctor gave me with frozen sperm.
The first attempt will be this month. I am working on getting the clomid. Who knows I am taking the soy isoflavone this month.
Thank you to all lesbian on YouTube. When I looked up insemination it was a lot of lesbian couples on YouTube discussing it. Many did insemination with a known donor. I appreciate anyone who has walked in my shoes before. I don’t have to reinvent the wheel.
Exciting times! Im checking often to see how things are progressing 🙂 stay positive!
Congrats on your new pathway! If you can find the right person, I think it’s a great choice. Sounds like you’re doing a good job thinking it through. Would like to hear more about your donor – how you found him, why you chose him (in addition to his willingness to give up parental rights), etc. – if you feel comfortable sharing. Sending good thoughts!
