Pregnant after IF

Wow...AW post!

Yesterday was our baby shower. It was so amazing and I can't believe that we actually had our own BABY shower. DH's brother even flew in from California to surprise us (Dh's other brother, dad, and my dad were all there as well). The day flew by and my only regret is I didn't get to spend more time with everyone there individually but I know that's hard to do at these types of events! I am so excited to look back through all the cute, fun, and awesome gifts we received and start filling in the nursery with more than just the empty furniture that's in there now!

Plus, we start our birthing classes this week...and with it being (almost) May, I can actually say that we could have an outside baby NEXT MONTH! This is all starting to seem more and more real--and exciting--every day!

  • Thank you everyone!

    imagechiwifey:
    That's so exciting! I remember when you got your bfp as I had just started on the IF board and it was so exciting to see that IF treatments do actually work. And it's even more exciting now to read about how you and so many other girls I watch move over to PAIF are having your showers and are about to have your sweet baby in your arms. Congratulations!!! 

    ^^This is so nice, thank you!  

    firewife--Thank you, and I'm so glad H came!!  Don't apologize!  (I still feel bad that I was part of the reason she was crying at the end, lol!)

    Mr. & Mrs. UMich! July 2006! :-)
