One Year Ago...

We had our transfer that brought us our beautiful daughter.
I'm sorry for not updating but I got lazy and then busy w/ my
darling daughter.
Birth Story
DD was breach at our 38 week appointment and I wasn't a good
candidate for a version so a c-section was scheduled.
We get to the hospital at 5 am on delivery day and baby
had flipped head down. I'm 2 cm and having a few contractions
So an induction is started. Things go smoothly except for a few
decels on the fetal monitor and by early afternoon I'm 10 cm and
ready to go. Unfortunately sweetpea does not handle pushing
well and gets stuck.
We're taken for a c-section and our beautiful baby girl is born.
It was an amazing day. She is the light of my life and I
Couldn't be happier!

I have checked your blog repeatedly looking for an update... so happy to see that all is well. We cycled together. A year ago today we did our transfer...and as I type this my darling baby boy sleeps peacefully on my lap. They are such a joy. Wishing you all the best. Your fellow former Merry Mama - Steph in SC

Hi, I was hoping you would be willing to chat via email. I am a TS woman in the Northeast who will be beginning the IVF process in a few months and wanted to get perspective from somebody who has gone through it. If you'd like you can email me at gymbrat20@yahoo.com

After years of miscarriages, fertility specialist appointments, failures and a frustrating and emotional attempt to adopt, we felt we had no choice but to give up on our dream of having a child. By chance I happened to hear about someone who had been to a clinic abroad. I started to research the clinic and the odds of donor egg and IVF being successful. We decided to give it one last attempt and headed to Eastern Europe. The staff was nothing but efficient, caring and supportive. We were over the moon to have a positive test after the first treatment. Two years on, with a beautiful, healthy, little girl we feel eternally grateful! If you are considering a go at IVF donor eggs - don't hesitate. Don't put it off, it could change your lives like it did for us!
