Happy Mother's Day!!

I just wanted to wish all of my readers a very Happy Mother's Day! For those of you still battling infertility, I want to tell you to never give up. You are all so much stronger than you think you are. I know that somehow, someway, you will all be mothers.

Not that my REs will ever read this blog, but I wanted to give a special shout out to Dr. Peters and Dr. Corley from the Sher Institute of Reproductive Medicine (in Bedminster). Without their help, I sincerely doubt I would be sitting here 14 weeks pregnant, actually looking forward to Mother's Day. I will forever be grateful for the wonderful gift that is growing inside of me.

As a side note, Mark was able to do an ultrasound last night, and we saw Baby Skeletor. Yes, that is the baby's nickname for this week. We saw the skull and the spinal cord...it was a little Halloween baby inside of me. I think it had the hiccups, as it kept jerking it's body and then punching itself in the face. It was pretty funny.

Anyway, have a wonderful day!!

Baby Blob Looks Like a Baby!

I had another ultrasound last Monday, and Mark and I got to see an actual baby in there. It was wild. We have the picture up on the fridge, and every time I'm in the kitchen, I take a peek. I can't believe I have a baby in here!

I swear, one of these days, I'm actually going to scan in the pictures...we have the progression of baby blob from the day of transfer up until 12.5 weeks. I can't believe that I have to wait another 6.5 weeks to see the baby again : (
