In July 1996, I was diagnosed with Turner's Syndrome and as a result, I was told that I am completely infertile with little to no ovarian tissue. Moving forward to 2011, after much soul searching, my husband and myself have decided to look at our family building options and track our experience not only to demonstrate what it has been like facing this hurdle and to offer support but to give an account of how the NHS and other organisations are helping us.

My SIL's scan
My SIL had her 20wk scan today and confirmed over Facebook that she was having a boy. I am so glad because it would mean that there is still a remote chance that I could give my DH family the first girl. About 18 months ago a name and an image of our daughter just popped into my head so vividly that sometimes I can picture her as I fall asleep. I know it sounds silly but the name that came to me actually means 'Grace that comes from a sea of bitterness'....weird or what! I was never the kind of girl that planned her wedding and kids by the time she was 7years old, but this name and image really stuck in my mind. I would be devastated if either of my sisters or SILS used my baby name. I never thought I could get so possessive over something like that.
