Argh

There isn't much going on in the surrogacy world this week as M&M are sitting on a beach drinking something wonderful, I'm sure. About the only thing I can report is my unhappiness with the clinic today. Last week the coordinator asked for the name and # of my pharmacy so she could call in the birth control prescription for me. I went to the pharmacy today and she never called it in! It's been a week lady! So I emailed her asking her to please call it in and I still haven't heard from her. I guess I need to call her tomorrow (which I don't really like doing -- I prefer emailing her so she can answer me when she has time and isn't rushed while on the phone).

I told my sister-in-law (my brother's wife - so MY family) over the weekend that I was going to be a surrogate; she seemed excited. My mother-in-law announced it to the whole family while we were sitting there eating our St. Patrick's Day dinner -- needless to say I was not too pleased. I'm not particularly close with my husband's family AND some of my mother-in-laws friends were there - I don't even know them!! I guess everyone was going to find out sooner or later anyway, I just would have rather it been after I got pregnant!! I was only planning on telling those closest to me beforehand (pretty much the people that already know - my mom, my sister, my boss, a couple of friends). I figured everyone else could find out after the fact because I don't really want to hear their opinions. I am doing this and nothing they say is going to change it; I figured why even tell them until it would be too late for them to voice their negative opinions and try to change my mind, know what I mean? Not that they COULD change my mind, but at that point they would *know* they couldn't change my mind. Eh whatever, no one gave me a hard time about it so I guess I should just be thankful.
