New Start

I am ready again. I finished off my last pill on February 19th. Which means that I begin a new cycle. A fresh cycle. We went to our last break appointment on Feb 27th, where we found out that there is nothing really stopping us from TTC again. There are no chromesomal problems, and no defect, DH was cleared as a carrier for Angelmans, and that leaves us to where we are now. The RFC won't see us because I can get pregnant, and don't need assistance, and there is nothing basically wrong with me, other then the PCOS. But there are millions of women out there that have PCOS and babies. We chalked it up to keep on trying and never stop until it happens. Our doctor told us that this month is the best one to try since we are just comming off the pill, that my eggs will be rearing to go. Wish us luck, ill keep you all updated.

Life is so amazing



I wanted to share that I got to watch a child be brought to this world. My best friend of ten years let me be involved in the birth of her new baby girl! Alexis was born on January 24th, 2008 @ 10:31pm. Her mother Meloney was induced after 39 weeks due to Alexis not gaining anymore weight. The experience was amazing. Meloney was induced with Oxytocin at about 8:00pm, and the contractions started to go one on top of the other by 9:30pm. After holding her hand for an hour she screamed "the baby is comming!!!" The doctor came in, rolled Mel on to her back, and wham! this precious tiny baby was born. She was born at 5lbs and 1/4oz. So tiny, but so very much alive. Thank you Meloney for letting me be apart of such an amazing event.
