Proud to be an April 2009 due date buddy!

I am also super proud to be part of the MMAH. I love my March Mommies and all our beautiful March Babies




Hi I am Amy, proud mommy to a beautiful baby boy Ashton Parker. He was born March 31, 2009 after over 24 hours in labor. 14.5 hours after they broke my water. He is beautiful and the love of my life. I can't wait to raise him up and see what happens as we continue through our life! My husband and I just got married last July we were due in mid April but are thrilled to have our baby boy. Other than that I am adjusting to life as a new mommy and fairly tired. I look forward to the journey I am headed on and learning many new things along the way! Now I am super excited to be ttc number 2, he or she will be joining our family in due time!

Thanks I really liked that one..

I stole your 2nd Peachie Siggy..lol Couldn't help myself

did I really? that's funny... I joined when I was preggo with Kellen but didn't really get on too much..I mostly lurked.... I didn't get to know my due date buddies then at all!!!

okay well I'll let you know when I get to go through it all!!  

Amy- I'm such a bad e-friend...lol...I keep forgetting to go through those clothes... but we will be moving here in the next 2 weeks and everything is packed up but when we get there I will go through everything and send you pics so you can pick if you want any of it!!   I'm so sorry!!

You won that wipes case giveaway!

Im feeling pretty anxious. actually she will be here in about 3 weeks...The doctors are taking my cerclage out which is mostlikely gonna send me into labor

I didn't read it, after her initial post. I just seen that she was looking for help.

Oh I've sold some of Kellens clothes!!

Aww.. Yes that's what I'm going to be doing.. the shots go in yoru stomach.. every night ( loooonggg ugly needles YIKES!) for 5 days.. they will do u/s to measure my follicles ( the sacs that hold your eggs in your ovaries) once the follicle measures 20mm it;s ready to release the egg.. for that I have an extra shot that makes it burst and release the egg... 24 hrs form that hubby and I have to go in they wash his sperm sample leaving those that swim faster and look healthy and put it via catheter into my uterus close to my tubes.. after that its a 2 week wait and hoping for the best news ever!!! ahahah
TTC is wasy for some.. hard for others and a nightmare for yet another few.. but no matter how.. we all help each other pull through.. if you ever are TTCing ( or not trying but not avoiding)
you are welcome to join my TTC buddy thread.. nothing special just a group of gals fighting for the same dream

Aww girly thank you!! I have to update it... cuz first my son is 4 almost 5.. haha my profile says 3... I can't believe I have 2 yrs here hahaha
And just Friday I had great news.. See I'm infertile.. I don't ovulate... so I need meds to do so and after pregnancy I need even more as you see.. it's NOW that they have figured out why I miscarry NOW after 5 freaking losses.   I'm seekign to do a more aggressive fertility treatment called IUI or intra uterine insemination.. but the meds were too pricey.... I couldn't afford all that money in one blow so I had everything on hold ..well anyway I called the Dr on Thursday in hopes he can put me on something cheaper so I can get things rollin'.. he wan't there.. sooooo on Friday in the AM he calls me... and said.. well buddy some of our IVF patients donate their left over meds and this is our gift to you!!!    
you can only imagine my surprise!!! I have been on cloud nine since Friday !!! hehehheheh
I'm too late into my cycle to start it now... so I'm waiting for my next period to take them!! I'm soooo excited!!! It's been almost 5 yrs of heartbreak and losses... we started TTCing when my son was 9 months old.. but to tell you the truth I never used BC after he was born...
sigh
I'm ready.... for my happy ending.  
I have soo much love to give!! My arms ache to hold my own baby and give my son a partner in crime hehehe
well that's me..you have a beautiful family mama! God bless you!
hugs mama  

Wow...trying to make a pregnant woman cry? that just ...made my day. maybe even my week. I'm not even sure what to say! Thank you. Sincerely.
