I've always said I would have married M. the moment I met her, and we've always wanted children. But we're two women and that complicates things. Fourteen years, one commitment ceremony, one legal marriage and eight inseminations later, we finally have the family we dreamed of.

Not exactly a question, but I would love to see more pictures! Especially of you guys' home, places you go on a daily basis, etc. I've never been to Seattle but it's on our top list of places to visit!!
What have you learned about you and M. during your ttc journey?
&
Do you think that all woman should have to go through a few bfn cycles before they are able to receive their bfp's?
(maybe more of a vent...lol)
I'm sure that I should know this already, but how did you & M first get to know DtD? Am I right in thinking that he was a friend already? And if so, how did you go about asking him to be your donor?What degree of contact do you all plan to have once your baby/ies are here?
And a non-ttc question; what is your favourite thing to eat at the moment?
Not sure if this has been asked during your previous Q & A session - and if it's too personal, well, you reserve the right to ignore. Do you (plural) intend to (at the moment, anyway) have more than one child? If so, does M. plan on carrying in the future? And will she be using DtD?
Two questions :-)
1. I think I have read that you are both vegetarians. Does that have any effect (positive or negative) that you know of in getting or being pregnant?
2. You go into pretty much all details of your ttc journey, which I love because it is very educational. I can imagine however that sometimes you just don't feel like sharing your story at all - especially your grief and such. How do you decide what to share and what not? Where is that line for you? And has that line changed at all during this journey?

A similar question was asked... I was going to ask how many kids do you two want? How will you go about that in the future (same donor, adoption, M. carrying)?
When did you decide to begin TTC? What was the starting point? And why did you decide on a known donor?

Just wanted to make a side note to the one question about being a vegetarian and TTC. I am a vegetarian (for 10 years now) and was able to get pregnant. I read that most vegetarians get more protein than required so it's not an issue. Only issue is B12 which you can get from eggs if you're not a vegan (which I'm not) or by supplements. :)
