(Sorry if I'm stepping on any toes by starting this thread! I'm not sure if there's typically just one person who starts it, but I'm eager to see and hear more about everyone's lives!)
I have a few "preview" photos to share from our maternity shoot this week. I am excited to see the rest but here are the few we were given to see early.
@mwagner25 - BEAUTIFUL photos!!! I love maternity photoshoots You both look like happy mamas.
My PIP is of my friend's daughter wearing the bloomers I cross-stitched for her. The bloomers themselve came with the most ridiculous pattern with some super-cheesy cliche I can't even remember so I made the design myself. Bright orange and pink were her sister's favorite colors (her sister passed away of a rare form of cancer a couple years ago). Friend's LO is such a sweet little girl.

This is the photo my wife took, that we used to tell my in-laws that we are expecting last Friday!
We have that same book "Mommy, Mama and Me". It's really simple but I love reading it. We keep it at N's level so she can "read" it whenever she wants.
Sorry if this is sideways...mobile bumping. This is Zeppelin. He was trying to sit with C in the chair and she kept telling him to get down. Finally he jumped up and laid on the arm so that he wasn't actually touching her.
Together since 2/15/11 ~ Legally married in NY on 9/29/12

We've been working on baby #1 since July 2013 using Open ID donor sperm. 8 IUI attempts with 5 actual IUIs and one chemical pregnancy. We have one fresh IVF cycle under our belts as well as a FET. I have endometriosis and a uterine septum that was corrected via surgery in November 2013.

12/6/14 - Started BCPs in prep for IVF #2
12/22/14 - Saline u/s and endometrial scratch (All was clear and OUCH!)
1/2/15 - Began stimming for IVF #2

I'm in the same boat with HBM. Almost pulled trigger on maternity photos, but then A/C broke.
We have the Mommy, Mama, and Me book too. So sweet.
All great pics!
We just had our LO 6 month pics taken. We got a sneak peek yesterday! I hope they come out the right size, I'm mobile bumping.
