Avery McKenna

The first story in McKenna's life is about how hard we fought to get her in the first place. Quinn has a similar story, but we really had to work for McKenna.

I wanted to conceive McKenna days after Quinn came home. Of course, I waited, but only a few months. A year later .... no McKenna. I decided not to mess around or wait any longer. I started calling doctor's office and asking for price quotes on different fertility treatments. Man, they really take you seriously when you call with those kinds of questions as opposed to saying, "(Cry, cry) I can't get pregnant." The doctors were rolling out the red carpets for me. I had my pick!

We tried three rounds of IUI. We used Clomid on the 3rd round. After $750, we ran out of money. So on round four we only used the $9 Clomid. That was all it took! We love Clomid and McKenna! Both McKenna and Quinn are constant reminders to use to count our blessings and be grateful for miracles ... even when they are kicking you from the inside or peeing in their beds!
