We arrived on Saturday night exhausted and spent Sunday just relaxing and settling in again… After a crazy week at home in the lead up to coming here.. typical of us to have so much going on at any given time hehehe but that’s just who we are xox
Yesterday I had my lining scan and it’s looking great.. our donor also had her scans and everything is looking good, phew!
It was lovely to see Dr Matabese and Danelle at Cape Fertility again, such gorgeous people and they make this journey much easier and nicer xox
We met a couple of lovely recipients in the waiting room, a Mum and Daughter that were actually on our flight on the way over.. she made me cry when she said “I just want to be a Mummy” xox I remember her Mum as she kept smiling and chatting to Liam as he crawled up and down the aisle on the plane… such a small world when you see people that were on your flight at your clinic and find out that they are on the same journey.. I hope she gets her dream and hopefully she will join my groups as I think she’ll be a great support on there xox Of course in the rush I can’t remember if they said their names, argghh I hope they get in touch, I gave them an Egg Donor Angels card so hopefully they will..
The other couple were from the USA and were doing a transfer, I’m hoping they will join my groups as well, this journey is so hard and it’s so nice to have others to chat to that totally get it xox
Tomorrow is egg collection for our donor so everything crossed… today it’s a beautiful day here and I’ve just spent a few hours on Egg Donor Angels so it’s time to do something as a family..
We’ve done most of the tourist things here but are going to do some again especially with Liam.. might go and see the white lions today, Liam will love that.. and we haven’t done that yet..
I will do a post very soon of the things to do in Cape Town and the surrounds for those that are considering coming or are coming here xox
Will do an update tomorrow as soon as we know something xox
Hi Dianne,
Thank you for the lovely update – I could picture everything as you described it. So glad everything is going to plan. I’ve got everything crossed for you. I hope you enjoy your time in SA and come back with a BFP!! Thinking of you!
warmest wishes,
Pip
Oh wow! How exciting! All the best for you ???
Thanks Novi, I know… it’s been a long and crazy journey for us from the beginning and never thought we’d go to Cape Town 4 times but it’s been worth it and wouldn’t change it for the world.. we have our little Liam from the first trip.. xox
