Three is a charm...

Well, we are on our third egg donor.  I hope number three is the lucky one and we have no further setbacks.  Honestly, I don't know if I can handle anymore. ;)  As much as I wanted our donor to have some Greek heritage, we decided to get the next best and go Italian.  It took a lot of thinking and talking to get over that hump.  I just wanted all parts of the puzzle to fit.  After thinking about it, our children learn from their upbringing, so he or she will be a part of you.  As not to go through the expense again of having an out of town donor, we decided to go with a local donor, who has previously donated.  We are thankful that we found our third donor quickly and that she was available.  She just finished her 5th cycle and we are waiting on her results.  We will be her final cycle, as a donor can only donate 6 times in her lifetime.  We learned that 3 of her 4 cycles were with positive pregnancy results.  The fourth was no fault of her own.  One cycle resulted in twins.  She is a beautiful young ambitious lady from Illinois and has one child of her own.  Going back to the Greek heritage, the donor's first cycle was with a Single Greek doctor and her last will be with a Greek to complete her full circle of giving.  If everything goes as planned, meds will start in May with a June transfer.

Cross your fingers...
