Sleep, quick runs to the store, clean clothes and a clean house are all nice, but there's no doubt that I choose Ella over any of those. We are so abundantly blessed to have our little ones.

Yes!
I'm newly pregnant after infertility. I read a lot of other pregnancy blogs written by women who complain about their pregnancy and how awful morning sickness is. Really? I cried the first time I felt nauseated because I was so happy.
I often feel alone because most pregnant women don't feel the same way I do. I have a feeling I'll still feel different too once my

OMG! I'm having endo laproscopy tomorrow and the amount of comments I've gotten (why go through surgery? Just adopt) and the like are mind-boggling. My sister is pregnant and I'm having a tumor removed. I'll trade! :) But you know what? Someday...I hope to be in the same place you are. Grateful and humble. Thanks for reminding me this isn't forever.

I'm getting the "I told you it would happen, so enjoy your sleep now" comments now. But I can't wait to give up my sleep for her! (Remind me of this in 3 weeks when I'm sleep deprived please...)

Oh he is so cute!!! You know, my hubby and I had a similar conversation last night - how RPL will most likely change the way we were planning to parent. He's afraid we'll send our kids out of the house covered in bubble wrap. :-) hopefully it won't get that extreme.

Sidetracked... I completely agree with your post! We are so lucky now and I could never stand those comments before...if people only knew!

I'm still getting the "you're so lucky" and "just enjoy the togetherness"... sometimes they make me roll my eyes, sometimes I wanna reach through the computer and punch people. :-) Ever wonder if those people realize they sound like they'd willingly trade these beautiful little miracles for a few extra hours of sleep? Grr.

Marci, if you happened to be

I completely agree with you! While sure, it's nice to have your freedom, being connected to my baby after so many years of waiting to actually have her in my arms - it's all totally worth the "sacrifice". I'm glad those other people don't think i'm "lucky" anymore.

I agree! It always feels surreal when I look at my baby. I am definitely more patient and grateful. Up until he was born and I held him, I didn't really believe we were going to have a baby lol and now unfortunately we get asked when are you going to have another one? I am so blessed to have my little man and as much as I always wanted a big family, if he is it, we are still the luckiest

Thinking back on the "infant" times, my favorite part of it all was the 3am feeding. You could set your watch by it, every morning. And I, me, yes I, was the proudest Mama to get up and go get my snugglie bear for a lil snack. He was the sweetest then, we got to bond in a way that no one else did. My body just got used to the sleep deprivation. I AM Different, I am grateful, and I do

YES! YES! YES! J is sleeping through the night now, and I'm kind of missing being awake with someone in the middle of the night.

The closest thing to a pang I've had is planning to see Harry Potter. We always go to the late show at IMAX and I don't have a babysitter who works that late. But you know what? We'll manage. :)

"Infertility made me gain a kind of gratitude I'm not sure I would have known otherwise."

You were right on when you said that. I thank God several times a day for Jax & Moose.

Congrats, Kate! I hope Niki is as lucky as we are.
