Changing lives… I hope

Soooo… what on earth am I up to now…
well..

does anyone know what these images are?

For those of you who are scratching your heads and wondering what on earth these are, well they are embryo’s used during the IVF or in vitro fertilization.  Why am I  posting pictures of embryo’s…. am I trying to get pregnant?  NO NO NO… lol I keep telling you people while my babies are just darling and the loves of my life I’m so over being pregnant it’s not funny.

So I’m driving home from somewhere the other day and actually had the radio on (this is rare as I usually jam out to my ipod) and I hear a commercial on the radio for a fertility clinic and they are looking for people to donate their eggs… this got me thinking.  I have had a few friends struggle with fertility (some more than others) and there was a time when I was willing to share not only my eggs but my womb with another if need be.. thankfully it wasn’t needed because I am just not the world’s most pleasant pregnant person.  Anyway it was something I really felt compelled to help another with, and so I decided I’m going to try to do just that.   I am lucky enough to have two beautiful children, and as many of you know I have had my tubes tied because I’m that sure I’m done.  I’m not using them anymore why not give someone else the chance to have a baby?  I have no idea if anyone will want my eggs I am 32 already and I’m not getting any younger, but I make pretty cute babies and I’m a pretty smart cookie so maybe just maybe I’ll get the opportunity to help someone else enjoy the rolle rcoaster that is motherhood.  I am applying to two different fertility clinics to see if anyone wants my eggs… wish me luck, if I’m accepted I’ll share the journey.  One of the websites for the clinics I am sending my information off too calls those who donate Dream makers…..I like the idea of that, off I go in the hopes I can help to make another’s dreams of being a parent come true.
