Gooooooo Duggars!

Hehehe You must have looked up the Duggars, right? Aren't they something?

And no matter how much research you do, you won't find anything negative about them. I'm serious about this. I know someone who wanted to meet them, and the Duggars were kind enough to say, "Sure, come meet us!"

She visited with them for two days, said they were wonderful, 100% authentic, and genuinely happy and normal. They're just a really, really, really, really big family.

17 kids. Can you imagine? And the mom's still sane.

I would have loved that too, Kay.

Hi. I am new to this thread. Justine just told me about it. I am very happy to have a 40's club. Well I fell very young but was reminded by my RE (several times) that I am part of the older group. I just underwent my first IVF and a little miracle happened :
I am super happy and excited but at the same time, worried, cautious. It is very difficult not to be on control and a very humbling experience.
Best of luck for us all.

Thanks ladies. I continue reminding myself to enjoy every minute of this little miracle. And hope that it is to stay. Of course I worry a lot but I guess is part of being a mom.
Tina:
What a Easter bunny you are!!! So many eggs . You go girl. Good luck on the ET. How many are you planning to transfer?
