I have a baby sleeping in the room next to me.
A year ago:
I was taking a cocktail of drugs and getting up every day in the dark to go and get my blood tested and get scanned.
I was downing litres of milk and water to help grow healthy eggs.
I was hopeful but also disbelieving that this cycle would be any different to cycles 1, 2, 3 and 4.
I was licking the wounds caused by the last clinic i'd been to telling me we'd never succeed at IVF and that I should give up.
I was wondering what to do next and what I would do with my life.
Eggs were taken from my body and my husband's sperm injected into them. 4 embryos were created and we waited to see what would happen. On Valentine's Day 2008 two of those embryos were returned to me.
One of those embryos became Barnaby. I still can't believe that little boy next door sighing in his sleep is real.
I so want my blog friends to get there too.

It is real, go give a little love pinch to Barnaby to prove it! haha.
How about some new pics of your little Prince?
Oh and I'm getting close!
I never tire of hearing stories like this. :) Enjoy every minute with that little bundle of joy. He's a true gift from God.
((HUGS))
Absolutely!
Say hi to Barnaby for me.
This time of year is very special to me too as both of mine are the result of mid Feb ECs/ETs 3 years apart.
Sometimes I wonder if I died at some point and the whole thing is just ghost fiction. But I can be morbid like that.
