Reminiscing

Last night I talked with a friend who confided that she and her husband are using fertility treatment. I told her about my blog. Hi, J. After pointing her to the first entry this morning I started reading it again myself. It's been almost 3 1/2 years since I started blogging. This blog has evolved quite a bit. First it was fertility treatment, then pregnancy, then baby stuff. Now I have Blog To Another Baby also, that I started when I became pregnant the 2nd time. Life keeps changing!

Wisconsin Stem Cell Research Program, University of Wisconsin-Madison
NIH Stem Cell Information Home Page
Embryonic Stem Cell Research at UW-Madison -- I finally talked with the Dr. at Univ. Wisconsin about our embryo donation for stem cell research. We have had the papers for a couple of months but were not supposed to sign them until talking with a doctor from UW. He asked a few medical-like questions and a few psycological / reasons for doing this -like questions. Part of the reason for the questions is to help us clarify / confirm our decision, and part of it is to compare t he reasons that folks in the western hemisphere donate to reasons that folks in the eastern hemisphere (he mentioned Australia) donate for stem cell research.
