Joining a Gym – Choosing our Baby Daddy – Among Other Things

          I joined a gym yesterday.  Need to be in a little better shape than I am now in order to go through with this.  Won’t hurt to stay active during the pregnancy either.  I got a great deal because I haggle (as a side note, don’t ever pay full price for ANYTHING – I ALWAYS get a discount 🙂 ).

     

          I also requested the donor catalog for our specimen.  I think we’ve decided on Midwest Sperm Bank because they are much less expensive than most other places for a vial as well as shipping.  I’m not looking to choose based on price alone, but I honestly don’t need all the other things that the more expensive banks offer (video, willing to meet the child, etc).  The less it costs, the more times I can try – even though I’m certain it will happen the first time :).  When the difference is $200-$500/month, who could choose without looking at the cost?

          I have a feeling we are going with Donor 126.  Here are his stats:

          I’ve also done some searching on the Donor Sibling Registry and found that he has quite a few little ones out there (9 that are registered) – so hopefully he has some good little swimmers!

 OK – in the middle of writing this, I get an email saying that 126 is no longer available…..UGH.  The next option that is available is 009….
