I found out that I have a balanced chromosone. That means my chromosone 18 and 20 are flipped. Meaning evertime I get pregnant and the egg that comes through has an unbalanced chromosone it leads to early m/c. As some of you know, my sister had the same problem and had her baby in Aug 2007 and Alaina Faith died 7 hours later. So since I have had 7 m/c, I did not want to go through what she went through so my hubby and I discussed it and tried IVF. After alot of money, I only had one egg come back normal. They implanted it at the blastocyst stage and it did not take. So now we are TTC on our own again. Praying to God for one more Miracle. With the help of my BFFs on this site... I am keeping my spirits high and going for it. If it does not work in my favor.... We are going with IVF one more time but using my sisters eggs (another sister that does not have the same problem)! So we will see what God has in store for us! Thanks for dropping by my page and for all of your support and prayers! Baby Dust to all of the TTC'ers and Congrats to all you Mommies and Mommies-to-be!!

Hey ladies.. I just wanted to let everyone know that I am still alive! LOL! I am sorry that I have not been online like I should or would like to be! I have been super busy lately. And when I think I am going to have a day to relax...someone gets sick! I swear if summer doesnt hurry up I am going to pull my hair out! So I have talked to my sister in Tenn. and she is ready when we are. She is taking the depot shot so the Dr said she will need to be off of that for 3 months. Her last shot was at the end of Jan. (she thinks) but she is also taking a anti-depression medication and said that she could not come off of that for me to ask the DR about that med. I cant remember what it is called.. I think Paxil or something. Anyway, so I need to call and ask him and if everything would be ok since she would not be actually growing a baby in her... than I am going to make our 1st appt. and get this next round of IVF started!! I am nervous but for some reason this is the route that I am being led in! I believe that GOD is steering this for us and we will soon be pregnant! I will update soon.

I am sooo upset right now. I have finally added some pictures of my sister that was going to help me with the IVF. I wanted to let all of you see how much that we look alike and why I really wanted to use her eggs. Well I called her today to ask exactly what the name of the meds. that she is taking and what mg it was and she told me but in the same convo. she said that she wanted BOOBS... That she would trade me her eggs for some fake boobs. Well I called my Hubby and he said forget it with a few choice words. He said he would rather pay someone $6000. just for the fact that she should want to do this for free. So I called her and told her that we offered the $2000 for her time and to help her out for the month that she would be here and I was going to take care of her and her kids while she was going through this and that it was not suppossed to be for anything else. Since she was my sister that she should want to do it for free and she could not understand why Mike would want to pay more money to someone else when if I would just give her $4000 we could all be happy. I would have my baby and she would have boobs! I am so hurt. I just cant believe all of this. My own sister! So now Mike says that we will use a donor egg but I am not sure if I really want to do that. I REALLY wanted it to be part of the family and look like me some what. I dont know what we are going to do from here. Thanks for all of your support. I love you...Amy

Me, Taylor and Dad! One Big Happy family!
