And at this time right now . . .

. . . on 12/7/06, I was laying on the exam table just after 3 embryos were put into my uterus. I had just had an acupuncture treatment before the transfer with a Chinese doctor in town, and was as relaxed as possible. Hubby and son came into the room to sit with me while I lay still for 30 minutes. J* thought I was sick and climbed up to lay with me. It was really cute.

Afterwards, I got up, got dressed, and we headed to Providence to have dinner with old friends. I had two glasses of wine and a surf and turf dinner at their house. J* watched Shrek while we chatted. Then we drove home. I was temporarily pregnant at least. Little did I know it was permanent.

I absolutely love that your Cooper was "conceived" on the day my Cooper was born! What a special connection!

I'm hoping to follow in your footsteps...on 12/07/07 I had my second IUI and held hands with DH for 10 or 15 minutes three floors above the hustle and bustle of the NYC streets at Christmas time! I hope all your good family vibes will drift our way...we'll find out soon enough :D!

Wow...that is just too cool. I remember sitting in a room (laying) hoping one would take. I have always thought about carrying a child and having that connection, even if it is not biological, as it could never be.

But, with two sons already (well, one in Guatemala) I think we are done for now.
