NEW NAME...Same blog.

It's 5:40 in the morning and I'm sitting in my kitchen eating Cheerios while my husband is fast asleep upstairs. This has become a fairly regular ritual of mine in the last several weeks of my pregnancy. I wake up and cannot stop thinking about food. This baby makes me hungry!! :)

As I read through others' blogs, it occurred to me that my blog's title has become a little outdated. I first started it as a journal of our second journey through IVF, hence the name, "Ben and Priscilla IVF #2," but at the time, I wasn't sure where it would lead. Now, as I continue to write about my experiences, I recognize that we and this blog have thankfully moved past In Vitro treatments....for now. (It's something we know we must face again if we want to try for more babies, but that is far from our minds as we relish the gift we have currently been given.)

As our journey continues on a much happier path we will never forget how we got here...

  1. So glad you are getting to "shift gears" with your blog. It must be amazing to finally get to change your mentality from IF to pregnancy. I am sure it all still seems so surreal.

  2. Love the new name! And I love the visual I get in my mind of you eating your Cheerios in the wee hours of the morning! Just curious - are they regular or honey nut? =)

    Also, thanks SO MUCH for your encouraging words the other day - they really made me feel better about all the little twinges and sensations I've been experiencing lately. It's so scary to be in our position and I'm grateful that you're here to help guide me through. XO

  3. I like the new name. How often are we told it only takes one time, ore one sperm, or one egg. All lies! I am glad you have moved past IVF #2 and are now on the road to a healthy happy little baby.

  4. I love your new name. Just want to also add a HUGE thank you for your sweet comments on my blog. We really can't have enought support going through this, can we? I have really gained a lot of strength and encouragement from what you write. And, oh, I LOVE looking at your wedding pictures! What's blog without wedding pics. They're certainly fun to look at while we're feeling so bloated and un-sexy! : )Thank you again for your support and prayers...

  9. Thanks for the love and support on my big announcement. I am over the moon. Thanks for being a cheerleader on my journey! I seriously can't believe I am pregnant. It just sounds weird to say. But I remember reading the early parts of your journey and you went through the same thing!
