'Baby Or Bust' Couple Seeks $$ Online

Site Solicits Funds For In Vitro Fertilization, $15,000 Per Try

(CBS)  "Eventually, it came to be very comforting, actually, because we've met so many people, usually through e-mail, that are in the same situation."

And, so far, so good. The site's been live since July 1, and Shelton says, "(Monday) morning, we checked, and we were about $5 short of $1,500. So, it's doing pretty well."

Brandi says she wants a baby badly, commenting, "I'm anxious to come home at night, after a long day at work, and see that little face and, you know, all the stress and insanity of the world just kind of wash away. You can sit down and read a Dr. Seuss book. That's what's important."

She adds that, "We're seeing the doctor now, and we're hoping to do our first round (of in vitro) in February. We're hoping the site will work. But if it doesn't, you know, we're prepared to take other financial avenues to gain the money."

Shelton happily concluded, "We want to document the entire pregnancy, of course, if it's successful, and we'd love, absolutely love to post pictures of the baby once it's born!"
