I can't believe I am finally a MOMMY!!!  So heres my story..

After TTC for 13 months I had a laproscopy, had 2/3 endo... the following month we did an IUI with clomid and I got my miracle BFP!!!  I was sooo sick throughout my pregnancy, but now know it was all worth it!!

I was induced August 3rd at 8:30am.. August 4, 2009 at 2:35am Bryer Henry was born weighing 7lbs 7 oz and 21 inches long.  He is absolutely beautiful....but of course, I am bias =)  We took him in yesterday because the poor boy is congested... he is fine... but he weighed 12 lbs 6oz... at 7 weeks! 

Some things about us:

---I excusively pump and feed him

---I started back to work last week and wish I could be with him instead!  Doesn't seem fair to me that somebody else (one of my best friends) gets to spend all day with him...

---He is our first and the first grandchild on both sides...so you could say he is spoiled...

---I was a member of TTCYF and TTCYF 6+ for quite awhile and love the girls there!

---My labor/delivery was as smooth as possible, and I was scared to death going into it... I had an epidural, which would have obviously helped...but I learned not to tell others that pushing was no big deal when they are due the next week... apparently I was lucky... even with an epidural =) 

---I have a new siggy in progress

---As you all know, being a mommy is the best thing in the world!!  I LOVE IT =)

----I AM SO EXCITED TO RECONNECT AND GET TO KNOW YOU GALS!!!

---Attached are some pics!

Glad to see you over here Crystal!  I'm not on here everyday but I do visit the board once or twice a week.  Glad to hear that you're doing well.  Sounds like Bryer is a healthy little eater like my little man.

Looking forward to more updates!

(And no, I STILL haven't changed my siggy yet!)
