10/31/2015: Appointment with Claire the Therapist

Dr. K and her staff have developed a checklist that one must complete before they can be inseminated with donor sperm. One of the items on that checklist is an appointment with their in-house counselor to assess the relationship and the couple's level of understanding regarding the risks involved. Basically, they want to make sure J and I aren't totally crazy...at least that's our running joke!

So we met with Claire today. She's super nice and easy to talk to as I'm sure most therapists are. She asked each of us about our family history and other background questions about our mental and physical health history.

The appointment lasted about 45 minutes. At the end she told us that she felt comfortable clearing us to proceed through the process of IUI! Now we need to finalized a donor, continue to improve our fitness levels, and save up some more money!
