A few weeks back, our friends delivered 3 huge plastic containers of maternity clothes to our front porch! The traveling maternity wardrobe belongs to a group of my hubby's high school friends who have been passing them around. I finally went thru them today & sorted them by season. So many great pieces! They warned me that the tops may look like tents now - but that they will end up being one of my favorite things to wear later on. ;) I just hope I don't outgrow "the tents." So excited to get a baby bump so I can start wearing them! But most of all, feeling very lucky to only be 9.5 weeks pregnant and have quite the maternity wardrobe. Thank you, Troy Girls!!! I'm so glad Joby became friends with you all when you were growing up! ;)
FYI - I even tried on a few pants and think that all pants should have the stretchy maternity material at the top.
My husband and I got married in 2005 and tried to start our family back in January 2008. We started our 1st round of in-vitro in December 2010 - which is when this blog was started. Despite a near perfect cycle, it resulted in a negative pregnancy test in February 2011. We were fortunate to get 6 extra embryos from that cycle that were frozen. In March 2011 we started a Frozen Embryo Transfer cycle. Despite another great cycle (on paper), all 6 of our frozen embryos had to be thawed to get 2 good ones for transfer - which failed to result in a pregnancy. In 2012, we took the first half of the year off and then tried a couple rounds of IUI with and without fertility shots - still no baby. In 2013, we did our 2nd round of in-vitro with my sister offering to be our gestational carrier. We ended up transferring 2 embryos into each of us and were blessed to welcome 4 babies in October 2013.
