We have our appointment rescheduled for Tuesday June 2nd at 3pm. I will update you all with the info we receive.

Appointment Rescheduled

The Dr was not able to make the appoinment today. There are three offices and apparently he was stuck at the San Diego office. I will call tomorrow to reschedule.

Next Appointment

We have our consultation appointment with the Sperm Bank on Wed the 20th at 4pm. This appointment will be to get acquainted with the sperm bank that we have chosen to use. They will explain to us how everything works and how we choose the donor. I'll let ya know how it goes!

Had the Consult

So we had our consultation today with the Infertility Dr. We both really liked him and felt very comfortable. The first thing he said to us as he walked in the room was... I bet you can't wait to hear that noise in your own room! He was referring to the babies heart monitor that was attached to the pregnant woman in the room next to us. Wow, what a neat sound that was.

So we have decided to move forward with the artificial insemination. It looks like at this point we need to choose a donor and make an appointment for the procedure. It could all happen within the next two months. We were told that when a couple is trying to conceive you have about a 20% chance of conception on each try. With the procedure we will be doing, we will have about a 14% chance each try. So it might take a couple of attempts, a couple of months of trying. Our fingers (and bank account) are crossed that it works on one of the first tries.

We are still waiting on our appeal date to go in front of the judge for the adoption. We still want our Foster Care license and we still want to adopt. If (WHEN) the procedure works, it will just put the adoption on the back burner for the time being.

Rescheduled

We had to reschedule our appointment for the consultaion. Well we cancelled the one we had and I need to call today to make a new appointment. So no news yet.

New News

Nope still no news from the County/ State on the appeal. We sent in the appeal request in February and are patiently waiting (that's me being sarcastic) for the state to get their heads out of their tooshes and issue a court date.

However in the mean time, we have decided to give Artificial insemination a try. We have an appointment with the Dr. for a consultation on May 11th to find out more details. I will update you as soon as I have more information.

Thanks again for all of your continuing support in our journey to become a family.
