    • About Me

      My husband and I have been together for almost 10 years and married for 4 of those years. We figuered pregnancy would just come naturally until we started thinking...uh oh, I am almost 39 years old, no more time to waste. I have just finished the testing phase and now moving onto the treatments. I didn't know much about the whole ivf process until recently and I am still trying to get my arms around this.

    • Thanks

      From mrsolsenk12 August 27

      Thanks! It is amazing how far we have come in a year. I was just reading jounals from last year and it is just crazy everything that has happened since then. I can't believe how big Hayden is getting. He is growing so quickly, I look back at some old pics of him and it is just crazy how tiny he was. I gave up my teaching career to stay home with Hayden. It was difficult to give up working with my students but i knew it was the right choice. I am thankful every day that I can work just part time in the evenings and weekends. DH can stay home with Hayden when I am not. I hope all is well with you.
