Fertility Clinic Mix Up – Could You Do This?

Having experienced the trauma of IVF at very close quarters, I’m in awe of Carolyn Savage of Ohio.

Carolyn was implanted with an embryo which ‘belonged’ to a Mr and Mrs Morell and found out 10 days into the pregnancy.  I cannot imaged the devestation that she must have felt at this point, but she decided to go ahead with the pregnancy and then hand the baby to his rightful parents.

The full story is here

Stories like this make the world seem a nicer place and I truly wish Carolyn Savage and her partner all the luck in the world and fervently hope that they too experience the joy of a successful pregnancy soon.

Disney Princess

It’s hard to believe that the first Disney Princess – Snow White was introduced in 1937 and we had to wait 13 years for the next one to make an appearance – Cinderella in 1950.

Today there are 9 in total – Snow White, Cinderella, Princess Aurora, Princess Ariel, Belle, Princess Jasmine, Pocahontas and Mulan, with 2 more being introduced – Tiana from the Princess and the Frog (released date 2009) and Rapunzel in 2010.  With a host of films, DVDs and books between them.

Each year new toys and products are introduced and firm favourites updated so today I’ve updated the Allkids Disney Princess page, as I’m sure they are going to be as popular as ever this Christmas.  Not only does it feature the lates toys, bikes and games it also has a section devoted to the official website, activities and a host of colouring pages.
For the latest Disney Princess bedding, curtains and bedroom accessories visit Children’s Rooms.co.uk, where we strive to offer the largest choice at the best possible prices, which includes a choice of delivery dates and charges.
Also keep a look out for our latest addition – a Disney Princess Junior Bed, which arrives late September, for which we alread stock a junior/cot bed duvet and the duvet and pillow insert.
