Just thought I would share this with you, I had a call from the Midland Fertility Clinic yesterday. They asked if Lee & I would be interested in taking part in a special for Mothers Day. More details was I had the journalist get in touch yesterday who I gave a story to on our 1st attempt at IVF and it being successful, they also went on to ask me why I thought Mothers Day would be so special this year. We have the photographers coming at 14:30 to take photo's of Lee & I and our son Alex, I can't believe it really.
Thats brilliant Shell! Everyone will be able to see your gorgeous son. Well done for doing the article.
I was watching This Morning yesterday and Curly from Coronation street was on there. They have just had a baby after 4 attempts at IVF, and he was talking about it so it wasn't so taboo to talk openly about.

You will have to scan the article and put it on FF. I still find FF hard to move around on - too many places to get lost in. I wish we could put pictures on this site though.
Take care and look after that lovely boy of yours. I looked at his pics on FF and he is adorable.

You and Alex will be even more famous (than you are on here of course ) !! What a great thing to do though and it means Zlex can be shown off to even more people!!!!!!
Nice to hear from you, it is great that I have shared a special story I can't wait for the paper to come out tonight I just hope its ok. The thing is they asked me questions I answered and then they do the story to it.
How are things with you and Sam?
I am a little worried because Alex ain't had a poo for 4 days, the gp said to give him water and I have and he asn't gone and then they said orange juice in water he still asn't gone. He isn't drinking all his feeds either, he was on 6oz and now I'm lucky if I get 3oz out of him.
Hope you have a lovely Mother's Day too!! its our first one as well!! how exciting!!
Have you spoken to your health visitor Shell? It's absolutely vile when they're constipated, as you want to go for them......pathetic, but true!
Is he still on first milk, as I found that when I moved Dan on to the second milk he became constipated.
Try not to worry too much Shell, it's probably just a little blip, and he'll be back to his guzzling best soon.

ttc for almost 4 years, diagnosed as unexplained. Just about to begin treatment when we were lucky enough to concieve naturally. Our beautiful baby boy, Daniel, was born on 27 Sept 2003. Now expecting again, baby due 22 Aug 2005.
Just to let you know I have started a new thread and I have copied the story for you which appeared in the Birmingham Evening Mail.
Sue - Alex is on the Hungrier baby milk now but thankfully he as done a poo today and what a big one it was (glad I was at my Mom's) she changed his bum.
