Baby Bard 2!

    The process for Baby Bard 2 was quick and easy compared to our journey to making Logan. We did the IVF/ICSI to achieve our embryos. Our fresh cycle resulted in an ovarian ectopic. Logan was a FET, frozen embryo transfer. Baby Bard 2 was also a FET. 
    We had 2 frozen embryos in storage. My OB wanted me to have 2 years between births for healing (especially because of the c-sec) and so we were not approved to start the process for bb2 until Logan was 16 months old. I brought Logan to our consultation and they loved him (duh!). It was to be quick and easy. I did my bloodwork right then and was ready to go for my next cycle. I started my estrogen and progesterone. Went on November 30 for my transfer of one embryo. Went in for bloodwork on December 10th and was told my hcg number was a good number! The next day. Matt and I went to the mall to do some xmas shopping and get the "Big Bro" shirt I saw a few days earlier (but did not want to get yet). 3 days later, a thursday, I went for a second blood draw and my numbers tripled very very well. So, all was good! We had a lot going on with family and decided that we may as well tell people before the figure it out on their own. We went to the in laws, with Logans new shirt. They noticed of course! And my father gave Logan an oreo and therefor dirtying out new shirt. Next stop was my moms! She noticed too :) 
   Logan has no idea. "Are you going to be a big brother?" "YEAH!"
                                 "Are you going to have a brother or a sister?" "YEAH!"
                                 "Are you going to be abducted by aliens?"  "YEAH!" 







This is Baby Bard 2 at 6weeks6days. Heart beat was good.


This is a picture of the embryo after they put it in.
