Location: H Town, Texas, United States

38 y/o married to my best friend since 9/12/1998; We met in 1992. Married in 1998; I'm a '91 graduate of the Univ. of Houston. Working on Masters degree in French Literature when I met the love of my life! He was in law school. I left my job in 1996 to work w/him when he opened his Law firm. Married in 1998. Working on our "family" diligently & actively since June 2004; 2 miscarriages, one Sept 2004 and another Dec 2004; Break from TTC per doctor's orders in Jan 2005; resumed family planning once all genetic testing was completed. March 2005 BFN; April 2005 BFN! May 2005 BFN! June 2005? Doc had "the" talk with us, if no bfp this cycle, it's on to IVF --test tube baby for us? maybe! Update: July 2005 underwent 1st IVF cycle, with SUCCESS! We conceived two beautiful little boys, born March 30, 2006 via emergency c-section. I am now wallowing in the joys of early motherhood. That is, lack of sleep, fatigue. My compensation? Smiles from the babies in the middle of the night... 11/14/2006: Babies are now 7 1/2 months old and I couldn't be more happy!

Blooming?

I'm not sure I would call it blooming? Ballooning is more apropos....

Babies this week:

Your baby measures about 3.7 to 4.1 inches (about 9.3 to 10.3cm) from crown to rump and weighs about 1.75 ounces (50g).
Your baby's bones still consist of soft cartilage but they are now beginning to harden and the development of the bones and the marrow continues. Her ears are developing into a more recognizable shape and any hair already on the head and brows will become thicker.
Your baby may already be sucking her thumb.
Her skin is thin and translucent and all her blood vessels can be seen through it.
Her hair continues to grow on her head and her eyebrows. If her hair will be dark, the follicles will start to generate pigment to color her hair.
Your baby is moving more now and is becoming increasingly flexible. She can bend her arms at the elbows and wrists and she can make tiny fists with her hands.

Mommy 2 be:
Week 14 of our Pregnancy...not as fatigued as before *thank God* but instead grappling with other pregnancy symptoms. Still enjoy having them and wouldn't trade them in for the whole wide world --round ligament pains are not fun though. Otherwise, on autopilot....

Daddy to be:
Gave the OK for a stroller I've been oogling....Found it in Pregnancy Buyer's Guide magazine and it seems to be the perfect one for our two..

Collapsed, it seems to be not as bulky as the Valco stroller we looked at last weekend.

Will have to order online as all retailers are up north or in Canada....love the wheels, not cheap plastic, but sturdy rubber wheels that can be replaced if needed. Seems to be useful for when they get a little older too, great for strolls in the neighborhood etc.. Saving $100 a week til I have it covered, then ordering it, just so I can send payment immediately to the credit card and have it be a wash....

Tata for now...14 weeks, 23 weeks left...
