I have been found

Yeah I got comments. I had quit posting thinking no one would find me and now I have been found. Well a quick update is that we found a doctor we are going to use. He has worked with two other lesbian couples. One couple gave up and one split up so hopefully he is not bad luck. He is most likely the only doc in our small southern town with any experience working with lesbians. We are going to set up an appointment for sometime after mid feb. Charlene is starting a new job and her insurance will kick in then. I know it most likely will not cover much at all until she is pregnant so we could go on and start with an initial visit but we just feel safer waiting incase the insurance acts crazy.

We have both read both of the recommended books, and Charlene is working on several other fertility books she found at the library.

I just feel all gitty thinking about it. LOL. I know we are no where near close, and I have no illusions of being successful on the first time but I just want to buy baby blankets and toys and clothes. The clothes are sooo cute.

Anyways work is about to be crazy with tax season starting up.

Oh yeah if anyone wants to recommend the sperm bank they used or steer me clear of a bad one that is much welcomed.

And sorry if my blog is kinda plain I dont have a lot of time to learn how to make it all fancy.

Any tips on making the blog roll thing would be great I think I have been doing it the hard way.

We loved Xytex as our sperm bank. We tried California Cryobank and they were ok. We really loved Xytex. The have baby AND adult photos. Plus you pay one to access all profiles versus paying per profile. Makes it a lot easier.

Congratulations on starting your journey.

We used Xytex as well and loved it. We paid $150 US for 3 months of unlimited access to the long profiles. We actually were successful with our 2nd donor (5th try). Same donor as Dee & Shelly (above) and Holly & Lois. :)

We are using The Sperm Bank of California. We love it. They are very helpful and were able to confirm pregnancies and live births for our donor.

As far as I know it's the only non-profit sperm bank in the country, and that was really important to my partner,

We used Xytex, as Shelly and Stacey and us all have the same donor!
We loved them.
I know people like California Cryobank as well.
