Thanks so much girls!
DH and I have decided that we definitely won't tell anyone (including a child) that we're doing this. Maybe down the road, if we feel it is necessary, we will, but we are going into this without a plan to tell. Therefore, after talking with the nurse today at our iui, she said we need a donor with a bloodtype that matches ours... which means we need a donor with bloodtype O. It can be negative or positive, but needs to be O. Whew... there is so much to think about.
I mentioned this in the IF thread already, but the nurse also told us today that if we choose to use an anonymous donor, they have someone who they think is a good match for us! SHOCK. It's just happening so fast. There is so much to think about. Apparently, she is undergoing genetic testing right now, and if all comes out good, they will send us her profile. We can choose to take her, or keep looking...
Oh my... Is this really my life?
