Timber!
How cool that you are pg! Take good care of yourself, get a lot of rest,
give yourself major TLC, you deserve every bit of it.
I too struggled getting pg. First baby 8 years ago, took clomid..ttc
second baby 5 years ago, clomid didn't work.. finally second baby 3
years ago, conceived for no apparent reason according to dr's, since
they told me I would never get pg again!
I understand your anger when you didn't receive any responses to this
post. I tend not to vist this board very often anymore because of, as
you put it... focus on doom and gloom, that it becomes quite a drag and
very depressing.
Sooo, with that my friend, don't sweat the small some stuff like that.
Focus on a healthy you and baby, as well as the happiness you can stand
with the pg and future with the baby!
