I was hoping I wouldn't be the first to comment. I've hesitated to share this because when we were going through the heartache of infertility hearing people say "once you adopt you'll get pregnant" wasn't exactly the phrase I wanted to hear.

Anyway...

After going through such a difficult adoption process with our DD we had decided that this time around we were going to try the IVF route. We have significant male factor and had been told by multiple RE's that the only way we'd ever get pregnant would be through IVF. I had done tons of research and finally settled on cycling with SIRM in las vegas. Well two months before we were to go down there I hadn't been feeling well (I'm sure you know where this is going) and found out that I was pregnant. You could have tipped me over with a feather I was so shocked... we've basically been TTC for seven years. We made an appointment with the doc and found out that I was 11 weeks along. Crazy.

Everything went as smoothly as can be and our son was born on January 23. We named him Kipton Maxwell and he was 6lbs 15oz. He's been doing great and Kylie is still adjusting to not having our undivided attention anymore!

It's hard for me to share this news. When were were childless it seemed like nothing we did worked and I was just miserable all the time. Hearing of others success stories didn't make it any easier either. So I'm thinking of you all and are hoping for much joy in your future.

Here's our blog if anyone wants.

Tamara I think this is great news!!! Even when I was in the thick of infertility I still found a place to be happy for others, especially those in our same situation. It always gave me hope that maybe someday it would be us. How AMAZING you were able to get pregnant on your own!!! What a MIRACLE for your sweet family. I can't tell you how happy this makes me to hear good news for once. This is a place to share heartache but also to share our joy!!! My heart aches for those of you still trying but hopefully this is proof that Miracles do happen and they can happen to you. Have hope and faith that you too will have your happy ending!!!

I know there are lots of you still hurting as you go through the struggles of infertility. Please share with us your feelings so we can be here for you. No one should have to do this alone and I know we can help eachother through this is we will open up and share. I love you all!!!
