30 Weeks

It was another good week. I know all of this isn't fertility related, but I have been thinking a lot about how to prepare for the baby to arrive, not just getting the house ready, but the family as well.  I decided to stop letting the boys (1 and almost 3) have bottles. I know, Little Lucky Bud was a little old for still having bottles, but it was hard with so many around the house for Baby Lucky Bud, so I just let him keep using them too.

Baby Lucky Bud would fall asleep drinking milk, and wake up a few times a night wanting more, or looking for his bottle, and some times I would be so tiered that I would give in, which just kept the problem going. Now they don't get anything to drink in bed. It was hard for the first night since they both are used to falling asleep with a bottle, but the second night was much better, and the third was no problem, and Baby Lucky Bud slept through the night for the first time in his life! Yay! He slept through the night last night too, so we are on a roll! Little Lucky Bud also used to wake up halfway through the night with a soaked through diaper since he drank so much, but that is not a problem any more. Unfortunately I am waking up more than ever since I have to pee a million times in the night, but at least everyone else is getting a good nights sleep! :)

I made a new friend at the fertility clinic in the waiting room after my embryo adoption transfer. She was waiting to go in for her transfer. Unfortunately her cycle failed, and so did the next one, but she received the first beta results for her third and final cycle, and she is pregnant! I am feeling so happy for my friend today, and am so grateful that after all that she has gone through, it was finally worth it.

I originally wanted to post a tummy photo every week so that I had a good record for myself of my pregnancy, but I just don't get around to it half the time anymore. Maybe next week! :)
