The pediatrician came around this week to give Ottilie her vaccinations and while he was here Flo asked him to update Ottilie's stats (it's better to have her measured by the same person for consistency!). She's now 8.1kg and 67cm long, although we doubt the length measured since she's almost out of size 68 and already wearing some size 74 clothes (although that could be her build?).
But the breaking news from today is that her first tooth has poked through; her bottom right front one! Hopefully this helps explain Ottilie's aversion to sleeping at the moment and gives Flo some light at the end of the sleep deprivation tunnel!
Anyway, Sophie the giraffe better watch out... she'll be punctured with little tooth marks soon!

My congrats, honey! I used donor eggs and gave birth to wonderful boy last year! I have no regrets at all! At first I had some doubts. I was nervous so much. I know how it feels… All that waiting just driving you crazy. I was looking at other women, who have already became mothers. I was so jealous, I thought maybe I've done something bad? Maybe I just don't deserve to get what I want? Yes, it's hard, because it's not our fault we can't conceive naturally. But still we should be grateful for such chance to have this procedure and become mothers! The greatest fear was that I will not be able to love child, who is not genetically related to me. It's much more easier for man to accept this procedure, because a baby will be from him. As it was my only way out, I decided we should try. It was a difficult, but the result changed our lives! After a couple of months of thorough search, reading of hundreds reviews and contacting clinics directly we've found Ukrainian biotexcom. I wanted a baby who I will carry and give birth by myself. I wanted to be with him from the moment of his birth, from his first breath. Of course, I wanted baby to look like us. But as soon as the doctor made an embryo transfer, the only thing I was thinking about was pregnancy to be successful and my baby to be born healthy! Now I have absolutely no feeling that my son is not mine genetically! No one can ever tell he is from donor egg. We decided not to tell our parents the whole truth. For them we had ivf with my eggs and my husband's sperm. If you have firmly decided to become a mother, no difficulties will stop you. I'm not going to tell my son that I used donor egg of another woman to get pregnant. I'm sure he doesn't need to worry about this in the future. This fact will change nothing for him. We are very happy that we addressed to biotexcom for this procedures. Thanks to their doctors I was able to get pregnant using egg donation program. I've never regret about my decision!
