The best advice I got about parenting (and it is good for lots of other circumstances) is that you make the best decision that you can with the info that you have, and then you'll get another chance to make another decision. No regrets. So enjoy the experience and take care of yourself!Christinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25073771.post-7305685252648021862010-04-24T10:49:54.254-07:002010-04-24T10:49:54.254-07:00A belated congrats!

I have two little boys, and with a very supportive husband, it's still not easy, but not as impossible as I had feared.

I started reading this post thinking of what made it happen for us...a daily dose of Robitussin (after 2 years of trying, one month of Robitussin let the swimmers stick around enough to plant seed).<br /><br />Then I read the rest of your post and I am Soooo..Excited..for..you!!! I will keep you in my prayers as I know this is a high risk pregnancy. I know too well the fears associated with that. But I wanted to wish you well and let you know you will be on my nightly and morning prayer list that your little blessing and yourself thrive! Enjoy and relish the pregnancy you have been blessed with.<br /><br />Thinking of you,<br />JenJenxr77https://www.blogger.com/profile/12608233263313831379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25073771.post-26969203420485631382010-04-21T20:14:49.873-07:002010-04-21T20:14:49.873-07:00Congratulations!

It has been tough with increased infections and lack of rest but it's been totally worth it. It has been difficult for my wife too as sometimes, when I'm ill it's like she has two children to look after!<br /><br />I wish you all the best for the future.Siggy75https://www.blogger.com/profile/02167078322211854306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25073771.post-30192142499854460962010-04-20T12:36:29.547-07:002010-04-20T12:36:29.547-07:00Congratulations, Laurie!

...Congratulations!!!!! I'm so happy for you!!!<br /><br />Having children down the line is something I have always thought about because I know it is what I want, but it will also be automatically high-risk for me, and I have already had some problems that may make having a baby harder for me in the future. I am not looking to have one anytime in the near future as I am 21 and very single, but I know in my heart that is what I want for the future. This post was very inspiring.Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04037584714439738592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25073771.post-5991980016228663662010-04-20T05:25:27.843-07:002010-04-20T05:25:27.843-07:00Congratulations! how awesome for you!Congratulations! how awesome for you!Melissa, Multi-Tasking Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04552463538625125742noreply@blogger.com
