crisis averted
So back in June when I last ordered spermies from PRS, I also preordered six samples. (They limit you to six, or I would have ordered more.) Last week, when I went to order more samples for my upcoming insem (hurray! I’m so happy to be back at this), they couldn’t find my samples. I was *freaking out.* Granted, I am under a lot of stress from other things, but this was not good. What the hell had they done with my samples, that I had paid a *lot* for, and that I needed next week so I could *finally* start TTC again?
Well, after several phone calls back and forth, they *found* them. Don’t ask me where they went, but they did turn up. It turns out they had also tried to slip me those 2-for-1 vials without telling me (you know, the ones where the motility isn’t good enough and they try to make it up to you by giving you extra vials). So, I told them I didn’t want them and thankfully they were more than happy to exchange them for regular vials.
This is actually the second time they messed up my order. That doesn’t bode well for the future. But there are many great things about them – they’re lesbian-owned, they happily ship directly to my house instead of to a doctor’s office, they have *lots* of open donors, and I love the donor I’ve chosen. So for now I’ll stick with them, and cross my fingers for future cycles.

Thanks, R! The spermies arrive on Tuesday, so it’ll be sometime next week. I’ll be sure to let y’all know.
Happy Halloween!
