AF made her appearance shortly after we got the call yesterday, so we're back in business. We go back to the doctors tomorrow morning for the next set of ultrasounds and blood work. I'm interested to hear what he has to say, but if I had to guess, he'll most likely make a witty remark about us being nice le...

I found a site that might be useful to those of you whom are trying to conceive, thinking about conceiving, or are interested in what the process entails (for future reference).
