  4. Thanks guys!!!

    Yes, Amber, we did wait to find out the sex - to us there is no better surprise - and were we ever!!! I was convinced it was a girl.

    He is really adorable. Rachel loves him so all is well.

    Best to you both,
    Deb

  5. Congratulations!!!! I have kept myself oblivious to all the pregnant mammas due to ok, will admit, jealousy! I just recently realized you had given birth! But I have to say I am so happy for you and your little boy! I know how long and hard you guys waited to complete your family and I am thrilled for you!

    Congratulations again!

  7. Caroline and Kris!!! Thank you!

    Caroline - I know exactly what you mean - one reason why I have not posted on the Parenting After IVF board. It was a very painful time for me when I was trying and then miscarried a precious girl. You are a very gracious and lovely person.

    Best,
    Deb

  8. Congratulations upon the birth of your baby Ralph!! You must be in seventh heaven! I didn't know that you were expecting, but I also know that you are very sensitive about it yourself and like to protect like minded people from longing and pain.

  10. yildirimbulut -- CONGRATULATIONS!!! I was thinking about you after seeing your post again recently on the names thread. Perfect!! Hope you and your whole family are enjoying him! (I never knew about this board....so glad I caught this!)

  11. You guys are the best. Thank you so much for the warm wishes. It means a lot. Really.

  12. Deb,

    CONGRATULATIONS!!!

    You are so deserving of this wonderful happy occasion!

  13. Erica - thanks!!! I am SO excited for you. Can't wait to hear more good news.

    Yeah, 10lbs 3oz. A lightweight compared to Rachel (11lbs.) I actually feel pretty good - and he seems happy so that's good. He eats an awful lot - DH and I joke that we should just get him a beer hat that funnels in formula.

    Best to you,
    Deb

  14. Deb - What wonderful news! Thanks for posting.
