Talking We have our donor

Yay yay yay yay!
Finally we have our donor. We got 3 donors to choose from on Thursday We decided to go with the one with blue eyes as that is what my partner has.
I was actually ovulating on Monday but I have an infected wisdom tooth ouch and I have to get that fixed before we can start. Bummer I know.
Apparently you can't have any work done on your teeth while you are pregnant.
I am goign to the dentist today so hopefully next month we can start the whole process.
Can't wait. So so excited
Oh yeh and on top of getting our donor we have just started to build our dream home in Baldivis.
So next year hopefully we will have not only a brand new beautiful baby, but a new home as well.
Our life just keeps getting better and better

Congratulations, I know that feeling of relief that you have the donor!

P.S. You can have dental work done in pregnancy, just not x-rays. Just a tip But probably best to get the wisdom teeth fixed up... I had an infected wisdom tooth about... 19/20 weeks ... and its no fun at all as I was too scared to use anything stronger than normal paracetamol (which, by the way, sucks at relieving dental pain lol!)!!!

What beautiful news that you now have a donor ..... YIPPY !!!!!!!!!!

.... Yeh, no dental work when preg BUT it's highly recommended to have a ' clean & scale ' at the Dentist just to keep those pearly whites in tip-top condition.

Sadly I had morning sickness so bad & for so long I just couldn't go ... Augh, the dental smells & being in the tilted chair ... would have been a shocker for me ... And I'm a fanatic when it comes to my teeth ... So, it's great you are getting them done now

Let us all know how all goes with bub preg plans ok

oh dont go talking about dentists! I had a horrible couple of days and just got my wisdom tooth out today. it was so awful. I am planning on getting my teeth done the best i can before getting preggers because I don't know what I would do having that kind of pain and not being able to do a thing about it. So good idea!

Cool

Ouch, you must be in quite a bit of pain right now
I know that my teeth are caining
Just wish they would hurry up up rip the buggers out lol.
I couldn't even imagine going through 9 mths of this kinda pain and not being able to do a thing about it.
I went to the dentist on Friday and I have to go back next Monday to get the outcome.

Cheers Gizzmo! i am trying to keep myself distracted from the pain so hopefully its better by tomorrow. My dp teases me about being a wuss about pain which makes me angry cos it really bloody hurts! But she is sweet and still looks after me when i'm like that so that makes up for it. I hope you are feeling better for it!
