kas - i'm sooo, soo sorry for the loss of hunter. he sacrificed himself for the lives of the other three babies. he really was an angel from god and i believe he will always be their guardian angel and watch over them. because of hunter's perseverence and your amazing courage and strength, those other three are going to be just fine. you faced impossible odds of losing all four and now it looks like you will deliver three beautiful miracle babies. we will continue to keep you and DH and your beautiful babies in our prayers. looks like you'll definitely make it till tomorrow and hopefully you'll be able to keep those babies in for as long as they need.

god bless!

Pixiegirl, you are right! Hunter did sacrifice himself for the other babies. Its so obvious now! He wanted the others to have a better chance. What an angel he is. I had tears in my eyes reading your post. This is all so sad!

Kas, I was so sad to read your update about baby Hunter. I'm sorry you lost him and am sure the time you were able to spend with him was so very special. His memory will live on with you. And it sounds as though you were having a c-section yesterday? I have been saying a prayer for you and will keep doing so until we hear that you and the other 3 babies are okay. We are all thinking of you and Elida.

Hello to all of you other girls. I am glad we are here for each other.

NY -- Congrats on those 2 embies! It must be a big relieve to know you have two perfect babies ready to go! And with another cycle you will have more...if AF ever shows (how ANNOYING). And the thing is 2 is not 1, that means you can try with 1 and then you still have one if you are worried its your body and some crazy immune system. Then you could try for a surrogate. I almost did that after my lupus flare on cycle 1...


To Have Fun -- Thanks for making the list!!!!


Hey it looks like I am last in due dates, so we gotta get some more of you guys going with your embies!!! Fingers crossed for those still waiting to get pregnant!

Hi ladies, happy Friday! I'm definitely ready for the weekend.

Chris, thanks so much for making the list. And you remembered my EDD and that it's a girl! You're always good at keeping up with everyone. Still no name for her yet, but if we pick one I'll be sure to add it. Did you have more testing yet? I think you were waiting for AF?

Lynnie, good to hear from you and love the name you picked for your baby girl. Wishing4blessing, I love your name too, it's very different and pretty. NY, Chris, and Rosario, we'll be waiting for updates from your next cycles soon! Hi to the rest of you girls and hope you're all enjoying this spring weather. It's supposed to be 90 here tomorrow! I found a cute maternity bathing suit and may just have to try it out at the beach this weekend. Brave I know! :D
