They'll need to have a talk with Sylvia - maybe once the shock wears off!<br /><br />I think that's why Wade was the perfect donor for Rose and Joanna. Colouring aside, he looks a lot like Joanna. I'm very curious to finally see this baby. :D<br /><br />LOL, I bet Lifetime have already done a ton of movies with these kinds of storylines. They know how to bring the melodrama!<br /><br />Thanks for reading!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-88378458636711970082011-03-10T13:10:24.787+11:002011-03-10T13:10:24.787+11:00Aww while reading this I was feeling so bad for th...Aww while reading this I was feeling so bad for them. But yay! I'm so happy that they're finally going to have a baby! I really like their faces when David gave them the news that they were pregnant. And Sylvia looking so confused at how the baby could have gotten in Rose's belly. But it was really touching seeing Joanna so upset since we never see her that way.<br /><br />I can't wait to see what the baby will look like. It's great that the baby will be a good mixture of the 2 of them even though they can't physically have a baby together.<br /><br />LOL @ Lifetime movie. There definitely would have been some tension if Rose never conceived, or if she conceived right away and Amelia didn't. You should submit those 2 scenarios to Lifetime TV ;).Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07006019503835147657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-36336952239628797482011-03-09T09:07:43.049+11:002011-03-09T09:07:43.049+11:00Laura, ugh, yeah, that would have been terrible.

The waiting was difficult for them and it was hard for them to be excited about anyone else's new babies when they weren't sure if they were ever going to get their own. :(<br /><br />Rose is normally quite positive but this would probably wear on anyone.

It might be realistic to go years and years but I didn't really want to, lol! They've waited long enough and there'll already be a 7 year gap between Sylvia and the baby. <br /><br />I wrote that whole scene based on Joanna's panicked shrugging!

Fertility treatments can be very gruelling and emotionally exhausting. <br /><br />Joanna is not the emotional type but at the same time and she's not the type to want to cry in front of other people either. This is probably the most stressful time she's ever been through though, so things are quite overwhelming for her.<br /><br />Thanks for reading. :)<br /><br /><b>Tanja</b>, Rose and Joanna deserve a little happiness, after their long wait (which is not that long compared to real life, true!) For a long time now, there have been no babies in their family at all, so two arriving in such a short span of time has been exciting for everyone but definitely tough for Rose and Joanna. <br /><br />Sylvia doesn't seem like the kind of kid you can fob off with superficial explanations to me. She would want the <i>details</i>, lol!<br /><br />Thanks for reading. :)<br /><br /><b>Sarah</b>, I'm glad it seemed realistic. It's not something I've had firsthand experience. I've had a few friends go through similar things though and based some of it on them.<br /><br />Thanks for reading. :)Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-68343340116159401162011-03-06T03:09:53.166+11:002011-03-06T03:09:53.166+11:00Congratulations Rose and Joanna!

It can't be easy when everyone around you is having babies, and it just doesn't happen for you! But in december they will be having their own little christmasbaby!!<br /><br />I adore Sylvia! She's so cute and sweet, and just sys what's on her mind!

Just the other day I heard a radio interview with a couple who went through fertility treatments for 8 years before finally having a baby. It was so heartbreaking to listen to them telling about those years when they kept trying and trying.<br /><br />I've never seen Joanna so upset, she's always hidden her feelings so well. I'm glad it all turned good in the end.Sarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08475614188928695076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-16764637306231393602011-03-05T08:53:32.302+11:002011-03-05T08:53:32.302+11:00Maisie, it did start out sad but Rose and Joanna w...<b>Maisie</b>, it did start out sad but Rose and Joanna waited for a long time and they were pretty disheartened. I'm excited to see the genetics too. I think the baby has a good chance of looking like what a child of Rose and Joanna would. Even if the baby gets black hair like Wade, that's still totally plausible as Joanna has a non-expressed black hair gene.<br /><br />Oh, I think that would have been heartbreaking, if this didn't work out for them. I think they would have given up, eventually. It's been a stressful time for everyone but I'm happy to have been able to include that. But I'm also happy that now they're getting some happiness. <br /><br />And thanks. I've been wanting to redo the bedroom in the same warm colours but may not bother. We'll see. <br /><br />Rose and Patience are both tall - they get it from Lake. Rob is only a smidge taller than Patience, if I remember correctly.<br /><br />Thanks for reading. :)Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-67961068046097576372011-03-05T04:53:52.514+11:002011-03-05T04:53:52.514+11:00I'm happy for them!

I'm really anxious to see the genetics at play here. <br /><br />And oh man... it would have been horrible if Wade and Amelia had their son, and Joanna and Rose never had a baby. But, like you, I'm glad it took a while. It does take time, and I think things are better for it. A richer story, if you will. <br /><br />They have a really lovely home, I like this one quite a bit. The layout is nice, and the decor is very fitting for this family. The funniest thing to me is how much taller Rose is!maisiehttp://www.retromaisie.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-48568600885448482282011-03-04T14:05:06.039+11:002011-03-04T14:05:06.039+11:00Apple Valley, oh, a screenshot wouldn't be too...<b>Apple Valley</b>, oh, a screenshot wouldn't be too interesting, I'm afraid and probably not too helpful either!
