About Me

My photo
For five years I went through hell and back to become a Mummy! I had three miscarriages from natural pregnancies, five IUI attempts, five IVF attempts, and three operations to remove endometriosis, a polyp and a fibroid. I have been with my 'almost perfect' Husband since 2003. We married in 2009 on Valentine's Day and we are extremely happy together. I decided to start a blog because I needed to write down my thoughts and feelings to show myself and others how I was never going to give up until we got our forever baby.

Since having my baby, I'm inspired to create: Baby Blankets by Me & Mum

Another Year Passes

Today is my Birthday and I am 39!

According to Dr. David Adamson, president of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine "The average 39-year-old woman has half the fertility she had at 31, and between 39 and 42, the chances of conceiving drop by half again". Oh, something to look forward to then!

On the positive side, I am only one year off having the option of having 3 embryos put back:

No matter how old I am when I have my baby(s) I will still be young at heart and try my best to be a fun Yummy Mummy!
