By the pricking of my thumbs, something IUI this way comes...

And we're back to the IUI discussion.

There's one option that we haven't explored. It's a clinic that does IUI with known donors but they were located in north Seattle and not open on the weekends. Since we might have to insem on a day that I work we really NEED to have a place close by. The weekend thing isn't a huge obstacle...we would just do IVI, espec. since DtD will go past twelve cycles with us. We decided that we might as well look at their website...

It was such a nice website, very queer friendly. I like that they aren't focused on infertility since we're not quite there yet. And...it turns out they have moved their offices and they're VERY close to my hospital now. Things were looking good. So we called....

Wow!!! What a great experience.

They were the absolute nicest people I've talked to in a long time. Very excited and supportive, warm over the phone, didn't bat an eye at us using a KD. I hung up actually feeling excited about making this decision. Finally things feel right. We can do IUI but still have the process we need. We don't have to lie. M. can be there the entire time. Our baby can start in a positive place.

We have an intake appointment for Tuesday. And DtD can come with us (unless his schedule doesn't work out.) If everything works out we may be brewing ourselves up an IUI in a little over a week.
