For my Sista’s

Shaz’s post really spoke to me the other day. It took me back to the beginning of the year, when we were all in a different place. It made me think about the friendships that have been formed along the way and how special they really are. This may be mushy……but gals this is for you!!
I can [...]

2009 = Failure

This is not a melodramatic-oh-poor-me post. I’m not looking for a pick me up or pity, I just feel shit! That is the only way I can explain it. Shit, shit, shit! And I have to get it out!
When I look back at 2009 I can only see failure. I really don’t know where everything [...]

Why I prefer national business travel!

So I’m in Durban at the moment! I arrived here last night and flew in from Lanseria!
While unpacking my suitcase I realize a few things about national travel versus international travel. It’s so much better ….for me.
1. I can call my husband freely from my cellphone and not have to wait for him to come onto skype.
2. [...]

Welcome welcome welcome!
Pull up a chair and make yourself comfortable.
We started our journey in 2003. I when off the pill and started to experience major period pain. We discovered later that this was because I had stage four endo….
Our FS at that time suggested a few timed cycles with clomid, but nothing happened.
My mom then suggested [...]

What do you expect from a donor agency?

So I’ve been thinking a lot about what we should expect from a donor agency. I must say that the answer isn’t clear in my mind yet, but I would love to know what other people think and feel.
Lets talk about the cost. Yes it is high, my first reaction to this was one of [...]

Exploring my thoughts.

Hubby and I had a small argument last night, and I’m trying to process our reactions. It had to do with the series Brothers and Sisters and a comment DH made while we were watching this weeks episode.
The offspring of one of the brothers had been conceived through the donation of sperm by one of the the other two [...]

Pissed off!!!!

I am so mad….at myself!!!!
As far as buying cars go I have now learnt. NEVER BUY A FRIGGIN RENAULT!
I have been thinking of getting rid of the car for a while because I just can’t afford to maintain it anymore. It needs its 60 000km service and I’ve been informed that this is going to cost me about R8000. [...]

What is in a picture?

My mom left such a wonderful comment on my blog over the weekend. It was in reply to my Going Donor post.
I shared with Sian the agonies of ‘there will never be a little me.’ The reason we we made more comfortable was that the picture on the donor site was identical to a picture of her [...]

Closer to a decision.

Over the past week I have asked the opinion of nearly everyone I know and I think I am closer to a decision. In the mean time I have been irritating myself by going back and forth between the two.
At the beginning of my appointment at the clinic on Wednesday I was pretty sure that we were [...]
