I was SO happy when my stomach went further than my breasts. Time to rock the belly. Have you made any decisions about your maternity look yet? Or is that me being LA? Glad it went well.

I suspect you'll get so used to answering questions that eventually you won't even give it a thought. Maybe it's because of my age and living in NYC, where fertility treatment babies are so common, the question doesn't phase me. Actually, it's made me laugh. When I went for a pg follow up with my hematologist, he asked if the pg was natural or with help. I cracked up. "I'm 45!" I said. His response: "Well, sometimes lightning strikes." I kind of think my still sore butt and the bit of numbness on the side of one thigh is a badge of honor. This is no oops pg, I suffered for it. BTW, I'm sure you do "<i>really</i> look fantastic." Glad things went well. I suspect you’ll get so used to answering questions that eventually you won’t even give it a thought.

I have to admit now that we have 3 kids from IF treatments (our 8-year-old daughter and the new twin boys), I love being able to say we are finished having children.
