What should I say???

We're planning to call the surrogate by the end of this week. Which I suppose means tomorrow since I just realized that it is actually already Thursday (where did this week go????)

I am beyond nervous about this call. Through email, she and I have already discussed what we each want out of this -- how we envision our interactions, the level of contact we'd like during and after, how I feel about her desire for a VBAC (totally on board). So um...the only thing we haven't really talked about is money. And I am sooo uncomfortable talking about money. To me, money (in every situation) is a necessary evil.

This is where you come in...and I need you to come in full-force. What should I talk about/ask/say in this call??? Kym -- you've been through this call before -- what did you want your IPs to say or ask? I just feel like we're really close on this (assuming we're in sync on the whole filthy lucre aspect).

*****Update: Just received an email from a clinic around an hour away. The doctor there will also work with us! And the local clinic (13 minutes from my front door) is willing to do local monitoring while cycling! This could maybe really happen!

Oh no! I'm so sorry that I didn't see this post much sooner! Seeing as how I'm nearly ten days late and you've already talked to her, you've probably already discussed this. I feel pretty crummy that I didn't see this post sooner! If you still have questions or need some advice, you can email me or comment on my blog!
