Whats your name and whats your partners name? La Donna (I go by LD) and Robyn

How long have you been together? Are you "married"? We've been together 18 years. It will be 19 on May 1st. We are DP's and planning to get married on May 2d 2009, unless we spend all our money on IVF.

Where do you live? Nevada. We just moved back here. We lived in Los Angeles and hated it, but my wife had a good job and we paid down alot of bills. I love being back home!!!! I love being back near our families (both families are very supportive).

What do you and your DP do? We're both attorneys.

How long have you been TTCing? 2 months, but we've been waiting to start for forever. I am on 100mg of Clomid (because of my age and because my RE says Clomid significantly raises your chances for success with IUI but so far it hasn't worked for me) and then on Progesterone suppositories in the TTW (because my RE makes everyone take them. I personally worry that they will make a bean stick that nature wouldn't have let stick if left to her own devices).

Have you always wanted children? Yes, I come from a big family and I've always wanted children. We always thought Rob would carry but her health made that risky so.....

How many do you want? What sex? I'd like to have 3-5 but she wants 2-3. We'll probably compromise and have 2-3. I'd like to have a couple of my own (I'd be grateful for one now) and then adopt a few. I don't care about gender; I just hope they like sports and school!

Do you have names already picked? What are they? We have 2 boys names: Zev Abrahm and Brendan Atticus and two girls names: Zoey Ruth and Sarah Ariel.

Tell us about your favorite vacation. We haven't had a vacation in years!!! First we were poor and in law school and then Rob's job in a big firm (I was at a smaller firm doing queer parentage actions (non-bio mom rep) and gay divorce) made taking a vacation impossible. Now, we're both government attorneys and it seems like, after law firm life, we're on vacation all of the time. Plus, were saving up all our vacation time for when we become parents.
