Dealing with the loss of a child is never easy, but it's even more difficult when you are an expat living far from home. Life will never be "normal" again and so now the challenge is to find my new normal. I am now back in the USA and the proud parent of two daughters, born using two different egg donors. "Frostina" and "Olea" are the loves of my life and I feel so grateful for the amazing women who donated their eggs and made my family possible.

Welcome To The World Frostina
Today is a wonderful day. Our little Frostina was born healthy and alive!!!!
She came out crying and it was the best sound I've ever heard. I don't know who cried more, Frostina, The Hubby, or Me.
She is doing great and I am overjoyed.
I will post more later but for now I'm just drinking her in.
