My cleaners daughter got married last week so she didn’t come to restore order to my house. She decided to take this week off as well which means my house now looks like a bomb has hit it.
M didn’t marry me for my house keeping skills and if he did then I would say by [...]

Who is your Louise Brown?
Posted in Uncategorized on August 28, 2008 | 5 Comments »
I stole this idea from another IVF Mamma. She referred to the son of a friend of mine as her Louise Brown as he was the first baby to have been born through IVF where she witnessed (online) the whole process. Her own son was born, having been made through IVF, not long after.
Her comment [...]
I’ve lost my mum!

Last night I was thinking “Now, that is 1 of the 4 weeks to wait for the next Ob appointment over” and then I realised that my math was all wrong and it is infact 2 weeks. So I am half way to the wonderful, exciting, delightfully tasting GTT!
Two weeks ago when we were heading [...]
Rumpelstiltskin

As of 4.01pm yesterday I moved into the third trimester. I can honestly say that I never thought I would get here.
I realised that my pharmacy could pull a Rumpelstiltskin on me if they want. I paid for my initial round of “get me pregnant” drugs and then the first round of “keep me pregnant” [...]
Infertility & Lemons
Posted in Uncategorized on August 22, 2008 | 1 Comment »
For a long time I have wondered if the type of infertility someone lives with affects their feelings about their infertility. I am infertile by association (although in recent years I have demonstrated my own secondary infertility and habitual miscarriage pattern so it is not a one sided thing any more) and thankfully (for us) [...]
My Ice Cream Day

I am not actually going to eat an ice cream, although after 18w5d of being dairy free I want to, I really do, but I won’t. Today is my ice cream day because I have 99 days left to my EDD. My British & Irish readers will know, straight away, what a 99 is but [...]

I am not sure what is being kicked around in there right now but it must be lots of fun!
In March M & I closed on the purchase of an apartment here in town. It is a reasonably sized, ground floor, own front door, two bed apartment that shares a party wall with a commercial [...]
Not a day goes by

Every day there is a time during the day when the baby is obviously asleep that I am sure it has died. It can go on for hours. Some times I give in quickly and use the doppler, other times (usually due to circumstances) I can’t get to the doppler and so I have to [...]

Don’t tell anyone but I figured out how to reset the counter on the drum! I am back in printing action. Woo Hoo Hoo!
Environmentally Unconscious

I have had a Brother HL-1450 monochrome laser printer for 7 years. It has never given me a moments hassle until recently when it decided that it needed its drum replaced. I haven’t needed it for a while but now I have the need which sent me shopping for a new drum. And what did [...]
