Guest guest Posted September 8, 2003 Report Share Posted September 8, 2003 - Congratulations...your story brought tears to my eyes. I am so happy for you! Please post pictures when you can - we would love to see the little guy. You're contractions getting " stuck " is a fairly common MA issue...but it sounds like yours was dealt with efficiently!

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 , Now that I've wiped the tears from my eyes, CONGRATS!!!!! I think you've reminded each and every one of us that continues in our journey that although it may be hard at the time, it will all quickly disappear when we hold our little ones. THAT is what may help some of us ttc'ers to keep on. Thanks!
