Everyone sit down - baby mentioned

Gpayne · 08-14-2005, 07:27 AM

Ok, you will all never ever ever believe this!

My test was neg.....so the transfer did not work..

On Sunday evening a nurse (my neighbor) called me from our local
hospital....she is a nurse in the nursery there.....and asked me if we
would be interested in adoption....and I said of course! Well, it is a long
story and I don't have much time....we have a baby girl.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We adopted her on Tuesday....she was born on Sunday!

Her name is Ashley Elizabeth and she is the most beautiful little angel I have ever seen in my entire life.

Thanks for all of your support through this...now we just have to go thru the adoption "waiting period" and we should be on our way to raising our little angel.

Gpayne-OMG This is great- I was wondering what happened with you-What wonderful news-and how lucky that your neighbor thought of you. I have an adopted daughter-feel free to join us at the adoption boards. I'm so excited for you-what awonderful twist of fate. Mary

Gayle - This is absolutely awesome news!

A friend of mine whom I met through our Resolve group had a very similiar situation. Her neighbor is a nurse in the pediatric section of the hospital. She had a patient who wanted to give her daughter up for an adoption, but hadn't yet spoken to anyone. The nurse contacted my friend, my friend naturally said "yes" and she is now the proud mama of a beautiful little girl (she's 3mos. now). Miracles do happen!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best wishes.

Gayle,

Your story has me crying happy tears here........besides my beautiful twins who are DE IVF babies......I have an older daughter who became ours through the miracle of adoption.

I wish you the best of luck with your new baby girl!
