Our baby comes for Jihad.

A few weeks ago we were told that our baby is coming for Jihad.

A little terrorist that was coming with a bomb.

Set to detonate at birth.

To kill herself - or the surrogate.

Are baby comes with presents - how nice of her.

We were told that we have Vasa Previa or/and
Placenta Previa.

A simple definition means that there are blood vessels that can break during labor
and the baby or surrogate can bleed out.

The countdown for the bomb going off was the babies birth date.

Now to beat the bomb we were told that a C-section was required and would avoid
the wiring of the bomb, by coming out the escape hatch.

Our September 7th - natural birth date was changed.

Our "beat the bomb" birth date was tentatively scheduled for August 24th.

Someone, didn't like the "beat the bomb" plan. And made some moves now -
ahead of schedule - a clear sign of determination. Or just good luck.

The Previa moved. Out of harms way.

So now - for today - we are back to a VBAC.

Our set scheduled C-section date is now a floating date to be determined.

And the bomb has been disarmed.
Early.
Easily.
Harmlessly.
With everyone safe and worry free.

For Today.

Well, this post explains alot-I just had to read it VERY carefully and stop trying to guess what was coming (darn foreshadowing). There was a minute there when I thought I'd missed somebody's horrible comment and actually thought that a horrible blogger had threatened you/your child!
Now the real tale is not quite as horrible as the imagined ending I was creating whilst reading the post.
Whew!!

Nobody said anything bad to me. Since I stopped posting everyone ignores me and leaves me alone.

I have no friends left to insult me.

I See Pregnant Women....And Small Children

Since we are talking about other blogs that inspire a post I will point to Xbox4NappyRash: The seventh sense in which he talks about developing a 7th sense - the ability to see infertile people. I got it a little different - I See Pregnant Women....And Small Children. When I was a small child I would go to the beach and see other small children. Others like me to play with in the sand. Then as I got a little bit older I became interested in the basketball court near the beach and was aware of the other basketball players that where on the court. As a got still older, I became aware of the girls in the bikini's at the beach. All of a sudden they were everywhere - and they were the only ones on the beach. Recently, when I go to the beach I see Pregnant Women....And Small Children all over the place. I constantly have to work hard not to step on them as they play in the surf. These young families are new to the beach. They have never been there before now - yet now they are all of the...

Mr. Inspiring

Check it out! Someone thinks that I am inspiring. Really! go to Our Surrogacy Adventure and read how I inspired her post, but notice that I didn't inspire her enough to be added to her blogroll. This is what I am talking about when I say that we meet new friends on our adventure. This would be a prime example. Take note, if you women that are reading my blog want me to post more that is how you get it done - stroke my ego. Men really are that simple. Now here is my response to the heart of her post - why do I blog? This is the point when almost everyone says "so that friends and family can follow our journey". That's not me. I want my family to be able to enjoy the excitement of our new addition and don't want to take them on the rollercoaster ride with us. They are really supportive, but we have to go through enough already without taking our entourage with us every step of the way. We just want to give them the happy days. So then, who is the audience that I wa...

Lost and Found and Connections Abound

I just got listed as a new blog by Mel at Lost and Found and Connections Abound. For those of you coming to my site for the first time here is a quick summary. I am an Intended father writing about surrogacy from the straight males perspective.  It seems weird to need to add the word straight when describing myself, but all the male blogs that I can find on Surrogacy seem to be from a gay males perspective.  Christy and I have been working on the baby project for around 2 years with many highs and lows. We are currently building our team for a new run. This time around we expect to have two surrogates at the same time which will help make it an exciting ride for everyone. This is the background for our story. Please read some of my posts and feel free to ask me some questions.
