Well, today was the next step!!
DH and I went to Brisbane and attended the Fertility Clinic, where I filled in lots of paperwork, spoke at length with the coordinator, we both had to have blood tests and then attend a psychologists appointment, and basically got lots more details about the whole process.
The best part was finding out that I don't have to wait to donate! 6 months is long enough after a piercing (as long as all the bloods come back clear!).
We sorted out a few more details, like the fact that I want to go to the Gold Coast and have my regular Ob/Gyn (who is also a member of the group) do the procedure rather than travelling to Brisbane ...
So now I just have to wait for the blood tests to come back, and then I can go ahead and donate!
Funny thing... I startled the Supervising Doctor... when we were introduced he looked at me closely and said, "Do you have any children of your own?", and when I responded, "Yes, two", he told me I didn't look old enough!! Woo Hoo! What a nice doctor!! I bet he says that to all the girls!! LOL!!
Anyway, I'm very excited about the whole thing, hopefully soon it will all be happening!
