My blog began as a way to vent my frustrations surrounding our struggle with infertility. I am now ELATED that it has moved from an infertility to pregnancy blog and finally our baby blog! The scars of infertility will never fade completely, and truthfully I don't want them to. Infertility has impacted our lives in a way nothing else ever could, and I'm very grateful for all it has taught me. At some point we will probably be traveling down this road again in order to complete our family, but for now we are enjoying our amazing little guy! He's so much more perfect than we ever imagined he could be. I guess it's true what they say...good things DO come to those who wait! :o)

The news is out

Well...we've finally shared the news. Talk about SCARY! Once you start telling people there's no turning back. I know the doctor has told us that it's completely safe to start sharing our excitement, and the odds of something bad happening now are very low, but it's still quite scary to make the OFFICIAL announcement! I never in my wildest dreams imagined I wouldn't want to tell people!

Matthew has been chomping at the bit to finally be able to make the announcement. He was SO excited when Dr. H told us it was safe to finally tell people. So since today was the last day of school (YEA!!!!) I took pink and blue cookies as a treat for the staff and to tell everyone. We sent postcards to our grandparents, the soon to be great-grandparents, and a fun email to the rest of the family and close friends. Then came the REALLY big announcement...Facebook. Once it's on Facebook there is absolutely no turning back! So it's out there now. The FB world knows and I've been slightly panicked ever since! Hopefully that feeling passes quickly!

Today is 9weeks 4days. My first OB appointment is on Friday at 10w1d. And here is the best news of the week...my progesterone shots are over on Friday! My butt is SO happy!!!!!!
