April 8 - Its been a long road

Dear Baby,

The other night your daddy brought up a very good point to me. He pointed out that two years ago, this month, we started our very first round of fertility treatments. We had been trying for longer than two years, but it was two years ago that we started to figure out what was wrong. We didn't actually use any procedures, but I started my very first round of clomid. We went into it knowing that the chances of getting pregnant on the first try was very slim, but we couldn't help but be hopeful. Month after month of not getting pregnant would eat away at me, but I just had to keep going. I knew that it would eventually pay off and the reward at the end would be worth it.

Here we are, two years later and nearly 23 weeks pregnant. I still have times when I can't believe this is all real. Until next time.

I will always love you,
Your Mommy
