We’re happy about this baby! We’ll have to figure out how to stage an online baby shower.
Sorry to hear your husband is in poor health, but with luck he will be around for a long time yet to come.
I am glad you were finally able to get pregnant. My brother and his wife tried last year, 6 eggs, but all were weak and none took. They threw in the towel, they just can’t afford the expense of trying it again. They are now attempting surrogacy, with her sister carrying, we’ll see, so far she hasn’t taken either.
Been through the whole trying to concieve thing with some friends, she has PYOS, it was horribly difficult, but they did get one daughter, was really hard though, lost 6 pregnancies trying. She could get pregnant just fine, body wouldn’t make the right hormones to maintain it, had to have shots daily through the whole pregnancy with Autumn. Unfortunately even though they have embryos available, her doctor says she cannot sustain another pregnancy. Rats.
Anyway, I am glad you have what you wanted, and your Mom can go eat worms somewhere. If she didn’t like
kids, why did she have any? I just don’t get people sometimes.Glad you’re here though. 🙂

Congrats! That is wonderful news!
While hiding somewhere in my head I'm on the lookout for white oriental dragons! Please let me know if you know of any available. Thank you!
I really feel for anyone who has gone thru infertility. It is a horrible, horrible, thing for anyone to have to deal with. I found myself so bitter towards other people who have children because I thougth I would never have one of my own. I knew we would not be able to adopt since hubby has a terminal illness. I’m so glad it worked but I just don’t know how to tell the family. Hubby doesn’t want to say anything since its still early and he’s afraid something will happen. I went with my mom today to get my nails done (already had the appointment for weeks) but I didn’t say anything to her. I wish I wouldn’t have gone because now I have a horrific headache and of course I can’t take anything for it. Mom and dad are going away for a week so I guess that gives me some time to figure out how I’m going to tell them. I think my dad will be happy but my mom is another story. She once told me if she knew how I was going to turn out she would have had an abortion! She has some kind of mental thing going on but won’t do anything about it. I mean no normal person would talk like that. Oh and to answer foxfeather’s question I drive an ambulance for the fire department. I’m going to have to let them know since they will require a work slip from my doctor so I can stay off light duty.
congradulations!!!! i am so happy for you and your husband. as long as the two of you want this child, that is all that is needed. i am sure you two will give it all the love he/she needs. 😀
Oh Congrats! I’m so happy for you and your husband. It’s really too bad about the family. Their loss really. Hopefully your mom will come around at least.

I’m all in favor of that. I’d put something toward it.

I don’t want to sound rude or anything and if I do I’m sorry, but had my mother said stuff like that to me I wouldn’t want that kind of influence in my childs life… that’s down right unmotherly..
Wolflodge said it! It’s a shame every child can’t be born into a home that wants and will love it as much as you obviously will.

Thats what my husband says all the time but she is my mom so what can I do. My husband gets mad at me when I call her all the time since she always manages to make me upset. He says I must like to be punished 😆

My mom doesn’t like kids and his mom and family don’t really talk to us. I think they are going to be mad that we are trying to have children with my husbands health being the way it is. He’s not going to get any better (unless he gets a lung transplant) so we figured we would try and see what happens. No one was happy when I got married and now no one will be happy that we are having a baby. Ok thats the end of my pitty party.
Screw them. When it comes down to it, the only one you have to keep happy is YOU! Congrats again, and tell her to go pack sand. 😉
8 years is a LONG time to want something so badly, and I know it will always hurt to not have the happiness & support of your extended family, but the nuclear family is now you & your husband & baby to come, and you guys will support & love each other. Hopefully your mom will want to be a part of that, but if she doesn’t you’ll still have this whole new part of you to enjoy. (Husband’s mom is crazy, selfish & cruel, so I protect my kids, but understand why he keeps trying ’cause it is his mom, and I watched my mom go through that too. It is hard to cut off family, though sometimes it becomes necessary.)
You’ve mentioned that your husband is ill, and terminal… I can’t imagine how scary that is on top of everything else. Hopefully we can help you focus on being pregnant and happy! Maybe you’ll actually have cravings for pickles and ice cream! (I agree with the earlier comment about cravings: I wanted to have them, but never did.)

My bf gets mad at my mom because she makes me upset as well. Needless to say that he doesn’t come with me when there are family gatherings because he doesn’t like how my mother treats me and expects me to drop everything and do what she says. Egh, why can’t ppl get a long? 🙁
