Spent the week feeling not like my usual self ....I have thought of lots of things to blog about but I keep coming back to telling a story.
Our little boy Oscar who is only a month off turning 2years old is an IVF baby.
Every baby born is special but you can appreciate I am sure, that for us he is an extra treasure.
We've been keen to at least have one more off-spring in our lives ....
So the past month+ I've been back on the program ...
Falling pregnant with Oscar really didn't take all that long in the end for us on IVF as there are many many couples out there who take a long time, have a lot of complications & some never do.
My heart bleeds for those people.
The last week you'll notice I've been silent really ... so this may explain ...
Every conception has a story & I am sure that many of you have amazing ones too!
So if you feel inclined say a little prayer for our embryos which are currently in the capable hands of the experts .... doing their thing, dividing nicely into a multitude of cells & growing stronger every hour!
Later this week I'll have x2 implanted & from there its a normal waiting time ...
My little artist .... Oscar's first painting:
To fill in some more of my life's story .... for over 10 years I was an Art Teacher to K3 - Yr3 children in one of Melbourne's top private schools. I loved that role & there are lots of parts of it that I miss ... so Oscar will have lots of creative opportunities!I strongly believe that your children should observe their parents being creative & be a part of being creative in the home together and solo. This will help keep those creative juices flowing!
I adore all wooden lovely learning tools .... this is a current favourite:
So a rainbow reminds us there is always HOPE ...
... and you know what ... I hope & pray this dream will come true ... I trust it will ... in so many ways it already has!
This week as a result .... Oscar has however watched far too much TV for my liking & is slightly obsessed with all things TRAINS .... this is the thrifty fancy animal one found the week before last!!!My favourite is the simple wooden one of course!
