The new ED said yes!
I have to say, I feel really good about this change. If I believed in fate, or some version of it, I would say it was meant to be. Even if I don't get pregnant, I feel good about this right now. When we picked our ED, back in February, the one was not available. There are so few times in this process that I feel really good, without many reservations. Right now, I feel good (worth saying twice).
Also, I have two job interviews coming up that I am happy about. I have been doing IT and business consulting work for about a year now...and I am ready to be employed by someone other than myself (oh yes, and E-bay). I started circulating resumes about 6 months ago but didn't get any good hits. I really thought I had a good/great resume. One day, WonderWoman was haunting the library as she does every three days or so (she is a major fan of the library), and she saw a new book out on resume writing. So she brought it home and asked me to look at it. Well, the nerve. I looked it over and thought, it's worth a shot. So I completely re-wrote my resume and suddenly...lots of interviews. My old resume must have sucked. I don't know what the magic formula is, but it's working. HR people are a mystery to me, as well as, jury selection (I never get picked). Anyway, two interviews in the hopper makes me very happy. Both jobs are business and IT consulting inside major health care organizations. So that is two thumbs up!
Plus, we are going camping this weekend with a big group of friends/family. HOWEVER, I will not be drinking or smoking (wink). In fact, my cycle will start (major bummer). Here's the really great part. We all picked a very remote group site, so we could feel at one with nature...so there is only an outhouse. Not a porta-jon...a box with a crescent moon on the door. So given the heavy flow of my cycles lately...this should be fun (frown). It's just life's little joke on me (and many others I am sure). In place of drinking and carrying on, I will be communing with nature. Hopefully on a porta-hammok.
My new tentative schedule for DE IVF is the following:
7/27 = CD 1: Daisy
8/7 = CD 12 baseline US: Daisy
8/15 = Lupron start date (1 shot lasts 25 days): Daisy
8/21 = Aprox CD 1: Daisy and ED
9/2 = MY ADVANCED MATERNAL AGE BIRTHDAY (again)
9/3 = Aprox ER date: ED
9/6 to 9/8 = Aprox ET date: Daisy

Looks like we'll be cycling together. :)
Have fun camping this weekend and good luck with the interviews.
daisy, honestly, sometimes I read your newest post and am absolutely freaked out by how similar our lives are right now.
First off: CONGRATS!!! On the donor, on the job interviews, on your communion with nature, on everything! Happy Monday!
Secondly, can you shoot me a comment or email me with the name of the fab book WonderWoman found for you? I am, as we speak, in the process of redoing hubby's (and my own)resumes. He is in IT and business consulting too AND he is a library junky (there right now) but I doubt that's a book he would actively seek out without prompting. I am using you and your good luck as a prompt.
I am really thrilled for you. I am going to my little back porch and having a drink (while I still can) in your honor.
Hi Daisy - how exciting things are right now. Congrats on the new ED and the new job. Hope that you have a great relaxing time camping!
Hi Daisy! Well you must feel like its still all so far away, but believe me, it will sneak up on you...its like wait wait wait WAIT! WAIT! WAIT its going too FAST! And then your cycle will be over and you'll be waiting just like me! I hope it works for you, thank God there are egg donors in the world eh?
I'm so happy this donor said yes!!!
I agree that your cycle will go very fast once things start moving!
