The Chosen One

So a couple months ago I announced that I was selected to help another couple make a ginger baby. This cycle was going to be a “double” which means in order to cut costs for the recipient I would undergo the treatments and 2 couples would split the eggs. Due to my “high quality” reproductive materials each couple would end up with loads of viable eggs. I was chosen by one couple and they were waiting to find another couple. As of a month ago they hadn’t found an additional couple.

Last week I received an email asking me to donate again. I’m game! I am not sure if I am doing the double, or if this is a new couple. I’ve been selected 6 times for this process. This will be the 4th cycle I’ve started.

New week begins the birth control pills, followed by a couple of appointments to check out my bits and pieces, they want to make sure that I am in tip top shape. Cycle begins in June, with a retrieval date in July. Can’t wait, hopefully everything goes smoothly. I will be skating/competing during this cycle.

More to come!
