Infertility and the toll it takes

[DairyFarmer 1]

As many of you know we have struggled with infertility for 4.5 years. It's been a long and hard struggle. We had one miscarriage that was really hard to deal with. After getting pregnant that first time on our own we struggled to get pregnant again. We did fertility treatments for about 8 months two years ago. After no luck my emotional well being just couldn't handle anymore so we took time off. When I say we took time off I mean we didn't do treatments but still continued to try for 2 more years on our own. After trying for 2 more years with no luck we just recently started fertility treatments again.

After just 2 months of trying, we are finally expecting twins! It has been a long, hard, trying journey but we are so happy to finally be having babies. I'm currently 8 weeks pregnant with a due date of July 17th. So far everything looks good. We have had 3 ultrasounds to date and have two very healthy looking babies with two strong heartbeats. Yesterday when I asked the doctor if everything looked good his reply was, "no, everything looks perfect." We just hope after all these years of trying God is finally giving us what we've wanted for so long.

I want to thank all of the people on here who have shown us support during this process. When dealing with something like this it really does help to have those encouraging words. Now I'll need those encouraging words as I deal with morning sickness and just generally being so tired. Thanks everyone!

FANTASTIC

Yeah, we had 5 eggs. So to get twins out of it was pretty good. The first ultrasound they only found one baby. I was happy with that. You can imagine how surprised we were when we went back for the second ultrasound to see TWO babies up on the screen.

See, I was the total opposite. I wouldn't POAS until absolutely necessary. I got so tired of seeing those darn negatives. I only took two tests this time. The first one to find out and then a digital just to see the word pregnant on there.

Excellent news, Charity! Congratulations to you and Javi.

Charity, I will be praying great big prayers that the gemelito(a)s stay right there and just get big, big, big! You tell them "No se muevan!!!! Quedense alli!!!!" I hope that you feel good and take it very easy on yourself. Now, you'll be Bootylicious, boobylicious, pregolicious! Just go on with your bad self!

PS - when I did the pregnancy test, bought mine from the Dollar Tree - and it worked!!!!
