Eight is Enough

My next baby will be conceived this Thursday.

As I was driving home from my doctor's visit today, I had that thought. My ultrasound went well - I have eight "good" eggs. My doctors will retrieve them Thursday. Then we'll say lots of prayers and hope they fertilize and grow!

Can this really happen? Can I really be blessed twice? As I was carrying my sleeping miracle baby to her bed tonight, I thought this just might work out. I just might be able to carry another baby. Please God, let me have another baby.

I feel good. I feel hopeful. And Heather pointed out that my embryo transfer will be this weekend - Valentine's Day. A day that is a symbol of love. That's just what I'm hoping for.

Praying God blesses you with a little miracle : ) What a fun V-day present that would be!!

I came across your blog from The Mother Letters Project blog. I know this is silly...but my daughter is in the Leelou Blogs cute baby photo contest and I am trying to spread the word for people to vote for her!! I need HUNDREDS of votes for her to even come close to catching up to the front-runners. I have been trying to figure out where to find hundreds of people, and I didn't think it was approriate to ask Seth to post something so silly on The Mother Letters Blog (obviously), but I figured maybe all the people who helped with the project would be willing to go give my little Makenzie from AZ a vote : ) If not, that's ok too. I am just trying to get creative and reach more people! If you'd like to help me by voting for Makenzie, please go to http://www.leeloublogs.blogspot.com/ and spread the word for others to vote as well : )

EVEN MORE IMPORTANTLY THOUGH...I am also recruiting prayer warriors for a tiny little miracle baby named Kayleigh Freeman, maybe you've heard of her and are already praying for her. It was through her blog that I heard about the contest in the first place. Even if you don't take the time to vote for Makenzie, please take a minute to visit HER website: http://www.kayleighannefreeman.blogspot.com/ and say a prayer for this sweet girl!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME!!!

Sincerely,
Daniele Brown

PS- THE MOTHER LETTERS PROJECT is in NO WAY associated with this request other than the fact that I found your blog there!!
