    We had out donor coordinator appointment on Sunday where they took our details down, apparently there is a three month wait at concept for donors (after telling us there was no waiting list), so I guess we just wait to receive donor profiles now. We will be doing divf rather than diui as my pcos makes iui too difficult.

    Hi Bec,
    good to hear you have been through the initial consult & can begin. Maybe there are alot of ppl starting diui/divf lately and so the stocks are low. I just completed another diui cycle with the usual result and am now moving on to ivf again. Not straight away - want to fit in a short holiday before we do this as it will be our last time.
    I hope the wait doesnt end up being too long for you and that you enjoy a good break & squeeze in some quality time together before the madness all starts up again!

    Bec - I agree with MsPink the three months will go quick ...we had to wait for 3 months too. My 3 months are up and have been told that I will have to wait for a couple of weeks more as they're waiting on a recipient that's before me on the waiting list to select her donor.

    I agree 3 months goes fast when you look back, when you're right in it, it can drag and drag...

    We're 3 months into our 6 month 'donor sperm' quarantine period, so yes the last 3 months have flown by, but the next 3 months feel like they're ages away

    I have a question for those who have used a known donor and have had to wait the 6 months quarantine period. Our 6 months is up on May 11, how long is the wait between the expiry date and getting the all clear from the docs to use the donor sperm? I guess I ask because if I can, I want to already be underway with my cycle so I can try to coincide EPU with the release of our donor sperm...if you know what i mean... rather than getting the all clear and only then starting the cycle?
