My friend took pics of me pg with my son, and she started her own photog business not long after, but I didn't pay her for them.
Will you find out the gender of the baby ASAP, or are you team green? We'll find out the sex of this baby, but were team green last time. I think both are fun!
Tell us your TTC story:
We want two kids close together in age, so we decided not to use any birth control after our son was born, and just see what happens. I was (still am) breastfeeding my son around the clock, he sleeps in our bed and nurses a few times a night...so I didn't think it'd be really *that* easy to conceive another. But we did. So now LO #2 is on the way. They'll be about 15.5 months apart. I guess I should've known it actually wouldn't be that hard since my brother is 13 months younger than me, and my mom is 13 months older than her brother. Should be fun though!

Tell us your TTC story:
DH and I have been TTC for 4 years. We tried for year and a half before we finally got a referral to a IF specialist. DH had to have a lot of different tests which lead to our doctor saying we could only do IVF with ICSi. We finally started last August which was a failed cycle that went from bad to worse. I developed OHSS which led to me gaining 10 pounds in a matter of days, and having to have a gallon of fluid drained. So we had to freeze our embryos. We waited till October for the transfer process, and two weeks later we found we weren't pregnant. March was our second miracle cycle. It could not have been any more different that last cycle. Everything went so easy this time, and it was so great to see those two babies on the screen!
