Amber and Leah Mizen-Schmidt

We were told that Amber was on the morning list for theatre. Meaning she should go in before 1230. By the time I got to go in to see Amber she had already dressed into her gown and had been given medication to dilate her cervix, at 7am.

While racing home the words Amber said to me on the phone kept repeating over and over in my mind, Phrases like: "the baby won't survive' "it's got a condition that won't let it live outside the womb' "we have to decide what we are going to do'

Picture this, being pretty much the only lesbian couple (out anyway) in a small country town and realising you have a chance you might be pregnant

2010 ended up being a huge year for Amber and I. Amber started the year celebrating her 30th birthday in epic 80′s style with her sisters surprising her by flying down from up north. Probably the best start to a year that was going to end up being be an emotional rollercoaster.

Off to Concept again for another try at getting pregnant, fingers crossed it's our year!

Trying for another baby isn't just a walk in the park...
