Yeah.<br /><br />Honey, you started this blog as a way to vent about your frustrations of not being able to conceive and now you have so you have EVERY right to blog about your pregnancy. This sense of guilt is a rite of passage for every new pregnant infertile. Enjoy your pregnancy and revel in it.<br /><br />The best bit is about 9 months away!!Chonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11078580707826544482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8083832040968229848.post-76387945960972587712012-08-13T11:34:58.973-04:002012-08-13T11:34:58.973-04:00Thank you everyone!

I've been taking weekly pictures since the day I found out, and even though I don't have a ton of readers, I still haven't posted any (although I plan to upload some soon) because I've been half-worried about upsetting people. <br /><br />BTW, I have to tell you that I read your previous post, commented to it, and then my DH walked into the room and I burst out crying when he asked me to tell him what I was smiling about so hard as I was typing my comment. I am just so incredibly happy for you and couldn't hold it in!Jayhttp://byplanorhappenstance.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8083832040968229848.post-25363250365269307542012-08-12T01:29:37.043-04:002012-08-12T01:29:37.043-04:00So so so so SO happy for you!

A hashtag (#) is like a label on your blog. It puts it in a category, and can make topics easy to find especially if many others are using the same "tag" or if you have a series of tweets with the same topic. At least that is my understanding. :D<br /><br />You are sounding extremely happy, not smug. And after 3 years and many IUI's, you have a right to be happy. It is definitely hard to feel the way you do at times especially when you know there are others out there who have had a longer and harder (losses) journey than yourself and who are still don't have a BFP. I know I felt the same way (and sometimes still sort of do) at the beginning of my pregnancy, but don't let it bring you down too much.<br /><br />I can't wait for your weekly updates and keeping my fingers crossed that your pregnancy is as easy as mine has been. I keep telling people that the pregnancy has been the easy part so far, although I don't think most people realize I am referring to the years of IF treatments as being the hard part and definitely not when the kid comes (although I know that will bring its own set of challenges).JustHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05373768249873098150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8083832040968229848.post-72625712179094560432012-08-10T00:55:04.524-04:002012-08-10T00:55:04.524-04:00It took me several months to figure out Twitter, I...It took me several months to figure out Twitter, I just took a class on it and I'm still struggling :) It's definitely an acquired skill.

Fabulous news! <br /><br />And I'm with Jenny: you're not smug, you're just super excited that after 3 long years and many IUIs you FINALLY got the news you've been longing for.
