Trying to Get Pregnant

New name, but not a new member...

I wanted to stop by and let you all know that I changed my screen name because I didn't want it associated with my email anymore. Although it appears that I am new, I am not and have been posting for a while now. Just to make sure that I give an intro, here it is:

DW and I are a same-sex couple and will be TTGP here in the next few months. We are currently in the process of paying off our debt and once we do, we will be using donor sperm and attempting to get pregnant. I have a history of PCOS so I am on Metformin, which I have been able to tolerate (I am one month in) as long as I take it with food.

I look forward to continuing to get advice from the ladies on this board and I wish you all well in your journey!  

TTC our first. Married to, and madly in love with, my beautiful wife. Living with our fur baby and enjoying 19 nieces and nephews.

    Sounds like the next few months will be a bit crazy for you two. I have some non-American friends who did this, but they didn't get to "pick" their donor sperm. The nurse at the clinic ticked off a few boxes and brought their anonymous sperm. I'm not sure how I'd feel about that. (On the bright side - it was pretty much covered by national health care.)
