  Your baby coughs and sprays breast milk into your open mouth. You were just admiring how cute she looks and now are left speechless.

  You know you're a mom when going to wal mart by yourself is SO exciting. Or when you can't wait for baby to take a nap, then you miss them the whole time they're sleeping.

  At my first sonogram, my spouse and mother accompanied me. The nurse said, "I will show mom first." I misinterpreted, thinking my mother would see first, and the nurse turned to me. That's the moment I moved to Mom stage, and my mother was in Grandma stage.

  Yup, I agree with when you're sitting on the toilet nursing a baby because you have the trots but you are home alone and he's hungry. Deep end of the pool!

  Married 2007
  3 Clomid IUIs -- BFNs
  IVF #1 never made it to transfer
  On "egg health" cocktail DHEA/CoQ10/FRC/Pregnitude/Melatonin
  Starting IVF #2 for Feb 2013
  Follistim/Menopur/Ganirelix
  Cancelled mid-cycle due to high P4 levels early on.
  OCPs again for IVF 2.5 mid-March. IVF 2.5 transferred two "gorgeous" 5-day blasts and BFFN. Even REI is baffled
  On indefinite hold until a huge stroke of serendipity led me to IVF 3 May 2014
  Testing found positive cardiolipins/APS, now on lovenox and intralipid infusions
  Transfer of 2 5-day blasts and (FINALLY) BFFP!! 1st ultrasound shows two sacs and two HB, but one is sluggish, almost expecting vanishing twin Subsequent ultrasound confirmed vanishing twin, but my other Little critter looks fantastic!

  You know you're a mom when you have a pregnancy massage booked for 3 days post delivery, change it for a new mum massage,get halfway there, decide it's too soon to leave her and come home - but feel super proud that you at least got out of the house for half an hour on your own
