1 SAMUEL 1:27

For this child I prayed; and the Lord hath given me my petition which I asked of him.

HAAPY NEW YEAR!!!

LIFE HAS IT'S MOMENTS.....

...... MAKE THEM UNFORGETTABLE!!

Christmas flavors and aromas

We made the presepios, we decorate the pines trees, we decorate the houses.

Kids write the desired letters to white beards sweet old man (Santa Claus) and adults hurry to make the last Christmas's purchases. The air is fulls of magic and fraternity.

It's the party of the family and the great Portuguese traditions on the table! In each home the kitchens are invaded by pleasant aromas, fireplaces are lit and the tables are prepared with the best hemp towels and finest dishes.

Litlle by litlle, the tables are gaining life with all those things typical of the party!

 AFTER ALL, IT IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

This is my Chrtismas Tree!

Hope you all have a great Christmas with ones you must love!

Merry Christmas everyone!

I'm recovering

from my babies lost. I can't believe that a month ago they were here in my belly.

It deeplly hurts, but life must gon on .....

In my mind I have a hope becouse on this treatment they frozen 6 embryos ....  I just need to recover myself, to perform a laparoscopy in order to check my womb.

If things are ok, maybe in Feb/2010 we'll try again.

13 weeks pregnancy

This was the last time I saw my babies aliving! I've beem interned for 3 weeks with a placent problem, I was loosing blood, and once more my pregnancy ended with un miscarriage.

I wanna die!

10 weeks pregnancy

For the first time my babies looks like humans! I'm doing well, resting all the time!

9th week pregnancy

Fetal Development: Cartilage and bones begin to form. The basic structure of the eye is well underway and the tongue begins to develop. The intestines start to move out of the umbilical cord and into the abdomen as the body grows and makes room. The fingers and thumb have appeared but are short and webbed.

Multiples: The babies are developing just like singleton babies. Each baby is about one gram in weight and about the same size as singleton babies.



Maternal Changes:

You're missing your second period this week. Your breasts may be fuller now than ever before and may feel very sensitive. Wearing a supportive bra can ease some of the tenderness. Your waistline may be growing and you may experience some heartburn and indigestion as your body adjusts to pregnancy hormones. Visit StorkNet's Pregnancy Discomforts page for remedies that helped other parents.

7th week pregnancy

Here you can see my babies!

They aren't identical twins. I couldn'd be more happy!

Fetal Development: I'm Tiny But Gaining Fast!


The baby is about 1/3 of an inch, the size of a grain of rice. Development of the arms and legs continue although the fingers and toes haven't yet formed. The brain is growing as well as the lenses of the eyes, nostrils, intestines, pancreas and bronchi.

Morning Sickness Tips:


Having your head in a toilet bowl or bucket most of the day is NO FUN, and you may have discovered that "morning" may mean all day and not just the morning. One important thing to remember is to never let your stomach get completely empty or overly full. Ginger (the real thing, not artificial) helps. Drink ginger ale or ginger tea, try ginger snaps or ginger root capsules. Lemons also help - lemonade or sucking on raw lemons.

Twins development

Fetal Development: My Heart Belongs to You!


The first heartbeats have begun! The baby is now an embryo and is about 1/17 of an inch long. Growth is very rapid this week. The umbilical cord develops. The eyes and ears begin to form as well as an opening for the mouth. The heart has begun to pump blood and most of the other organs are well under construction. Buds form on the body that will become the arms and legs.

Exciting week!

Maternal Changes: Multiples:

Morning sickness can be very severe with multiples' pregnancies. Since your fluid requirements have increased, be sure to drink lots of water to keep hydrated when the vomiting is severe. Contact your care provider if you have any concerns at all.

I'm 6 weeks pregnancy.

Yupiiiiiiiiiii!

I'm pregnant and there are twins!

Only made Beta HCG on Sept, 29th, but it's truth!

I'm 6 weeks and 2 days pregnancy, and I'm so happy. We heard the babies's heartbit. They are so strong. Hope God protect us!

Algarve - Here we are!

This is where we'll be on vacancys for next 2 weeks!

This time I'll make the long protocol, which means almost 1,5 months injecting myself, ultrasounds, blood samples etc.

But, I'll be well installed .... lolololol

We are near the beach also.

The veredict

As I'm 42 years old and already had 5 miscarriages, the doctor found that  this time we must make the embryonic study to have 100% certainly of the embryos to transfer.

The exams and analyses had concluded that my husband has a deficiency on 13th snd 14th cromossoma level, therefore we'll going to procced with embryo study.

I'm going to start the treatment on the vacations.

Please, pray for us!

New doctor's appointment

Since my last miscarriage, last year, I decided to give a break, to loose some weight and to enjoy living the life.

However, next 29th July we have a doctor's appointment to decide what we're going to do. I am anxious again!

Italy

I came already back from Italy.

Milan and Turin are very wonderfull cities!

Venice is pretty, pretty ..... It was ashame that the canals smell badly, but riding a  gondola with the husbabd was a unforgetable experience to repeat!!!

No doubt!
