Success after IF

Annaleigh's prayer card

I just had to share this because I think it is so beautiful. We spent the afternoon at the funeral home planning Annaleigh's service. I wanted to give out prayer cards, but all the ones they had were so generic. Joe decided that he would create one for her instead:

On the back we are printing verses from the book "Your Personal Penguin." We sang this to Annaleigh yesterday right before she passed:

I want to be your personal penguin
I want to walk right by your side
I want to be your personal penguin
I want to travel with you far and wide
Wherever you go
I'll go there too
Up and down and all around
And always with you
I want to be your personal penguin
From now on

  • That is just perfect. What wonderful parents you are. 

    Your story has touched me ... like so many others, I've been following your blog daily since the babies were born. I cried this afternoon when I heard about Annaleigh. She will be missed and remembered by so many. 

    After 7 failed IUIs, IVF w/ ICSI worked!!

    I am thankful every day for my miracle after infertility.

    And thrilled to be pregnant again after FET!

  • Brooke, I am so sorry you and your family had to experience this.  But you and your husband were such wonderful parents to Annaleigh even though it was for a short time.  I am sure she felt your love. 

    Your poem is absolutely beautiful and touching.  My prayers go out to you and your family.

  • Brooke, that is beautiful! You and Joe have exhibited so much strength during this difficult time. Annaleigh, Charlie and Lily are so lucky to have you for parents. You continue to be in my prayers.
    It took over four years to be diagnosed with PCOS. We TTC #1 for 18 months, did 5 rounds of Clomid and finally moved onto IVF...which worked! Throughout our IF journey, we suffered 3 miscarriages. We conceived both DD and DS without treatment.
