Hi guys,
I was reading on another forum about someone who has found a huge number (over 35) of donor siblings for her children and I started to panic a little. I did some checking and CLI will allow up to 25 to 30 family units from a single donor. Basically that means that there could be a huge number of siblings from any donor.
So far we know about 5 families including ourselves, right? That's a number I'm pretty comfortable with!
I know you are both trying for #2 and that 1481 is sold out. Were you given any reason for the unavailability? Were you told if he's reached his limit or has he just stopped donating for his own reasons?
25+ families would just break my wee brain!

I think I figured there would probably be somewhere in that range, it's kind hard to wrap your head around that though.
I guess I'd never really thought about it until now and it just came as a bit of a shock. I don't know if it's an issue or if it ever will be. It was just a shock. As you said, hard to get your head around.
