Motley « lifeslurper

Lifeslurper resides in a big brown land called Auuustralia. Her early years remain a mystery cloaked in a veil of depression.

Age 42 Lifeslurper meets the vague but gorgeous Wobbles. “What took him so long to arrive?” She asks.

They make their way together in the world just fine, but are not fine to make a baby – not without some outside help. Enter ART and 2008 the year of 4 IVF cycles & one lousy big fat negative.

Lifeslurper is now 47 years old! Time for a baby is running out fast, so too is her sanity. Now it's 2011 - Lifeslurper & Wobbles have moved into top baby making gear. Donor Egg Cycles are the way to go, after a long pause to take stock after a glorious donor egg BFP & the subsequent loss. This year saw 2 cancelled FET cycles, & and menopause causing delays.

Where to from here? After 10 cycles Lifeslurper & Wobbles now await their WobblyBub who is due in May 2012 - actually make that...um....*sigh*...what's the point?

Having less than $20 on my being put an end to extended travels, still it didn’t stop me from thinking about making an escape with the monosyllabic driver as my accomplice.

A message from the pink and white one….

Things have been tense in the Lifeslurper Spa Resort since going our separate bloggy ways.

The demanding pink and white one has used not so gentle persuasion techniques to convince me to mention that the Festival of Teddy is currently taking place.

Only there will these shots make [...]
