What is with the Pineapple reference?

The reason this baby is referred to as our little "Pineapple" is because of the nickname Bob gave me after we started IVF. Bob said because I had endured so much, and was so strong I was like a "pineapple". The outer shell of a pineapple is strong, stubborn, hard headed, but once you peel back those layers it's just a mushy, sweet fruit inside. So immediately when we found out we were pregnant the ladies on my board started calling the baby our like Pineapple. So there you have it, how the nick name Pineapple and TTP (Teeny Tiny Pineapple) came to be.

Why a blog?

I wanted to share our Journey of IVF and TTTC with others. It is and was a long difficult road, and I feel that if I can help even one woman find comfort, give suppport, and make a difference even just woman who is going thru infertility or IVF than I have done something wonderful. I've brought a sense of understanding and comfort to someone else. To my fellow TTTCR's I pray for us all, and we will have our babies.....

Our Dream

Some dream of big houses
Or shiny new cars,
Ours is to someday
Hold a baby that’s ours
Some dream of more money
To hoard and to keep,
Mine is to someday
Rock my baby to sleep.
Some dream of careers
In buildings so tall,
His is to someday
Toss his kid a baseball.
Some dream of great power
To be strong and tough,
Ours is to someday
Have a child to love.
Some dream of things
Such as silver and gold
Ours is of the day
Our child we’ll hold.

It's confirmed and offical

Well just as I thought, and what we already knew by the HPT's it's confirmed by the blood test.

WE ARE PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!

My levels are great...our last pregnancy my first beta was only at 70. This one is........... 112 baby!!!!!!!!!The RE is very happy with that number! I go back Tuesday for a recheck! Please please please please please please please double and sticky lil bean(s)..you're mommy and daddy are waiting and have been for SO long! Thank you all so much as I said last night for everything ladies!!!!!!! BTW, my nurse said the spotting is nothing to be worried about, most women doing IVF experiecnce irritation with the Prometrium Capsules (progesterone supps), and that they see it alot in IVF pg's

So for now we are cautiously optomistic...and our EDD is November 2, 2008
