Time to pick a donor

Good afternoon, hope everyone is ok, and enjoying some sunshine? Just a little update! So we had our appointment with the donor coordinator today! She was so lovely, that helped us both relax! I was feeling very nervous beforehand! So we signed a few consent forms and were given a chance to ask any questions! We now have to find the fight donor for us. Once we do the clinic checks on the availability and all being well it takes around 8 weeks. This is one hell of a waiting game isn’t it!!! 😬After that we will get another appointment to sign more consent forms and get the treatment plan! All good things come to those who wait-well that’s what my mum taught me when I was younger!!! It’s all starting to feel a bit more real now I guess! Hubby had to go back to work so we’ll be searching together later on!

I’ve changed my diet and started doing more fitness classes, cut out alcohol, and am taking multivitamins is there anything else I should be doing/taking? I was thinking of acupuncture what’s you thoughts? Thanks in advance xxx

Congrats on signing your paperwork! Things will move quickly now. With regards to acupuncture, I have spent a small fortune on this and reflexology in the past, and had positives and negatives whilst doing both or one or the other. For my next round I won’t be using it. I really do believe now it’s all down to embryo quality and everything being right internally. It helps with relaxation but so does walking my dogs and crochet! Maybe worth a try if you’ve not tried it before. Good luck with your cycle xx
