Hi everyone,

My partner and I are just starting our first natural IUI cycle this month with an unknown donor arranged through our fertility clinic- currently at CD11.

We live in Perth and don't really know many other queer parents. I'm pleased to find a local pregnancy forum with a queer area - I'll probably spend quite a bit of time here through our TTC cycles.

Thanks.

Welcome and good luck, babysteps!
Looking forward to your pregnancy announcement!

**babysteps** · October 27th, 2008, 04:57 PM

Thanks Sally, I'm looking forward to making my announcement too! I'm waiting for a call from the clinic to tell me what day we're doing the IUI - I think it should be on Thursday. Then I guess I have the 2WW - that sounds like such a long time right now!

I love that you've called your baby 'squishy'... is that a Nemo reference? My partner has already chosen that same name for our future baby until it's born.

Babysteps - You should come play in the TTC Buddies thread - I'm the only one in mine doing IUI instead of BDing and it's lonely! I'm having IUI #2 hopefully around Sat if my ovaries behave and produce the egg they're supposed to (they get shy when observed)! So we're sorta cycle buddies too!

This is the TTC Buddy thread I'm on https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...2008-a-17.html

welcum to BB babysteps. U say you will probably be spending lots of time on here and I am sure you will because it really is addictive! Only 6 weeks until we start the TTC process, I hope your IUI goes smoothly this week and we hear of a :BFP: really soon!

Hey, I'm Dani and my partner is Ivy. We're 21 years old, we've been together for four years and we are currently trying to become pregnant with our first child. We live in Maine, where gay marriage was just legalized a few weeks ago

and we are hoping to marry this september with a bun in the oven. I'll find out next week if the first attempt was any luck, and I get butterflies just thinking about it. I have a maternal itch going through me like nothing I've ever felt before. This is what I was born to do, and I can't wait to begin the journey.

Hey,

My partner is on here all the time and giving me the run down on everything so I decided it was time I came on myself lol Nuse27 is my partner and we are still TTC but we have been given the green light finally to start our IVF cycles in May this year! So over the next few months its saving money time! lol

Hi all. My partner, Nef and I are pregnant with our second! Our daughter Jayna is a preschooler now! It was time to dust off the ol' artichoke jar and syringe and get to it. We are excited but worried...troubling economy...plus, Nef had fairly serious health problems last time around that we are hoping don't strike again. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone!

I'm here

I'm Emma (26), live in New Zealand & am the super proud Mama of Gaby (3) & Emersyn (due June 23). Both were conceived in male/female relationships, but I always considered myself bisexual... My relationship with Emersyn's dad was a confusing time for me, as I was starting to consider that I might be a bit more than bisexual with a preference for women... I found out I was pregnant on the day I had decided "if this cycle isn't it I'm going to stop, because it's not fair to him that I don't know if I want to be with him, or be in a relationship with a woman".... I tried to ignore it for a few weeks, but just prior to being 12w pregnant, I broke up with him.. I felt like I was living a lie..... & now I identify - very proudly, as lesbian, and life suddenly feels 'right'. I just hate that I dragged him through the mud, on the way to making my realisation...

Just wondering if you need to be a platinum member to chat in the chat room. I've tried a couple of times and it does not allow me to. I'm just an ordinary member.
