Surrogate Change

We are so close now to the start of this cycle, egg retrieval is due for Tuesday and our egg donor is doing well. Our first choice of surrogate got her menses late so we are now cycling with our second surrogate choice who matches our egg donors cycle, not such a bad thing as our second choice was as good as our first!!!

The waiting is killing me, I hate it, as the time gets closer each day seems to get longer and longer. Our clinic are so patient with me (Will) I email just about every day asking about something, I always get a reply the same day explaining all my questions, our doctor is very understanding of our situation.

I read on some peoples Blogs that if their first cycle is not successful they feel calmer on their next, not me (Will). I feel so nervous this time round, more than the first time, I am trying hard to stay positive and enjoy the journey. I feel I am the sort of person who is able deal with anything but what I am having problems with is the not knowing, if I knew the outcome I could deal with it, but until I know I feel like my life is on hold! Can’t wait for things to start!

Keep you up-dated.

  6. all i can say is get used to it and learn to relax
    there is a 2 week wait every 2 weeks
    we are so much more informed than if someone was pregnant at home ( 2 or 3 scans during the whole pregnancy)

    im glad for this as its all we have
    seeing we are half way round the world from it all
