3 years ago my husband and I started trying for a family. After 1 year and no pregnancy, we went to a specialist to find out that I could not have them on my own without help of a fertility clinic. Well, it's been a long 2 more years of test after test and fertility drugs. Finally, we got the news on Friday that I'm going to have a baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it's true! I know it's a little early to be telling people since I am only 6 weeks, but I need to scream it to the world after everything we have been through for the last 3 years! Mayjor changes are going to have to occur. I'm going to have to hire someone, especially since I can't seem to stay awake...I'm sooooo tired We are also just starting renovations on the two car garage to make into a full shop. This is good timing, since I need to get the paints out of the house. I switched over to latex paints and I have packed my enamels away. I also bought a resporator mask. I will have to continue with the painting until I hire...I already turned down two jobs today though. Any advice or information regarding materials I should stay away from is welcome!
Thanks for listening heads!

Brenda, we want to express a hearty congratulations to both of you also. The yearnings you felt were not unfamiliar to us. We had seventeen years of marraige prior to parenting. Most of the time I'd never want to go back.

Happy Happy Joy Joy!
Get ready for a ride! We are halfway through our first pregnancy, and so far it is not NEARLY as tuff on us as we thought (at least that is what she was telling me last night!)
Don't worry, and don't let the worriers worry you. This is the oldest, most natural thing in the world being parents, and you will do a great job.
We hope that your pregnancy is joyous, your birthing is easy, and your parenthood a wondeful adventure!

Congrats Brenda! We have a 6 year old and a 9 week old. Sometimes you will feel at your wits end with your child(children- who knows with those fertility drugs) but, then you see them sleeping peacefully or they strike this expression on their face and you say to yourself,"Wow, what a perfect precious person we've created."
You mentioned to me once that you work with Lexan. Doesn't Lexan give off some sort of GASES? Would it be something to concern yourself with....anybody out there know?
Congrats again!
