Almost time!!

It's only a few more weeks before we start trying to conceive. We got some good news recently about several things. First, it turns out that our donor will be coming back to the area full time!! He will move back at the end of July, so we will only have to have his sperm shipped to us for the first try. Some really great friends gave us their fertility monitor to use and I have been using that to make sure I am on the right track to predict my most fertile days. We met with our lawyer and have set up all possible legal protections we can with our decision to try at home. Since our donor won't be legally considered a donor, we needed to put the most legal protections possible in place. Our initial donor agreement will be modified to show our intent as well as our donor's. When the baby is born, our donor will sign a relinquishment of parental rights, and Teal will apply for joint conservatorship over the baby. This should protect us, the baby, and our donor. We can't wait to get started trying for the baby!!
