My Surrogacy Journal

Bad News

2010-08-25T18:26:00.000-07:00

I found out today that my match is over, the IF decided he just wasn't ready for surrogacy. I'm so upset, I have been having the worst luck with IPs. I just can't figure it out, why can't I get lucky like other surros? It seems like everybody else matches so easily with no problems and my matches fall through. Anyways I feel so bad for the IM, she was wanting this so bad and she is hurting a lot!! They were just talking to the attorney yesterday and then he decided to get cold feet and wanted more time to think about it all. Well I wish them all the best and I hope she gets her miracle!! I'll come back again when I know for sure that I'm matched for sure.

My medical records

G finally received my OB records and has sent them off to Houston IVF and now she has to wait for my other records from my 1st surrogacy, the clinic sent them to my house on accident. So I sent them off to G today and hopefully she will receive them in a couple of days so she can send them off to the clinic. She did say that my OB records look great and sees no problem with the clinic being able to use me as a surrogate for P and I. Oh I just can't wait for next month!!!! We are waiting for A/F so we can get all my screening done and hopefully by Oct. or Nov. we can transfer. Gosh this waiting is so hard, lol. Well that is all I have for right now, but I will be back.

Starting my 2nd GS journey

2010-08-17T19:24:00.000-07:00

I'm excited to finally say that I'm matched for my second journey to a wonderful couple!! This last Sat. 8/14/2010 the IM and her BF and the wonderful lady that made all this happen G came over to the house to meet for a little bit, then we went and ate breakfast at IHOP and we had a blast. I had a great morning getting to know her, she is so sweet and I feel so blessed to be matched with her! We had an awesome time sitting there laughing and talking back and fourth, it feels like I've known her forever. I was not wanting the day to end, but I had to work that day and they had to get back to Houston. I was told by G after we met that she wanted me to be there surrogate and that made my day, I was so happy!!

Well moving on today which is Tues. 8/17/2010 I filled out the medical insurance application and mailed it off, so hopefully in the next week or two I will hear something back on that. Now we are just waiting on my OB and my first RE to send my medical records to the clinic in Houston so they can review them. Next step I will have to go to the Houston clinic to start all my testing and then we can start meds and then the next big step is to transfer. YIPPEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Stay tuned for more to come.
