I have a favor to ask, if you stumble across this blog and you know me or my dear husband in real life, I ask you to understand why we have not told people in our day to day lives what we are going through. Instead of gossiping about us, come talk to us. Thank you.

Happy ICLW!!

If you are here from ICLW you can read my full history here 

The Reader Digest version is after many years and 2 rounds of IVF we are pregnant and due July 21st.  This pregnancy has been tough on me as I have dealt with depression, and anxiety and dealing with all the mixed up feelings that come with being pregnant after infertility.

We are into short time now, our nursery is done, we pretty much have everything that we need, now we are just waiting for the baby.

This does bring me some stress.  I have read too many stories of ladies getting to this point, only not to end up with a baby in the end.  I am doing my best to stay positive and stay away from reading anything that might stress me out.

So Happy ICLW!!  Take a look around!!!

((HUGE HUGS)) and of course, congratulations!!

I have so been were you are. Pregnancy after IF is like nothing else. I was super high-risk, too, which added even more stress. I'm so glad IVF #2 worked. Wishing you all the best during the remainder of your pregnancy.
