First time mom asking for recommendations

Nancy

I am super nervous being a first time mom. I have created my baby registry, but literally don’t know what to add.

ANYONE CAN HELP HERE? Recommendations would be greatly appreciated! 

My husband and I started our <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">ivf</a> journey in August 2019 after trying for 4 years. Unfortunately, this transfer had failed for us resulting in no pregnancy. 

It was a devastating time, but we were lucky enough to have 3 frozen embryos left. February 2020 we were scheduled to start medication again ready for a Frozen embryo transfer in March, we were week and a half away from our transfer date and because of COVID it all got cancelled. Who knew when we would be able to resume treatment. But in July I had a call saying treatment is resuming if I was happy to go ahead. I started my medication again in August ready for a transfer in September. So surreal this time around as I had to attend all appointments on my own. On the 2nd of September 2020, we had one of the embryos transferred a whole year after our first transfer. 

I don’t know why but we felt much more relaxed this time and I had a much more positive mindset, we agreed not to tell anyone not even family we were having treatment again I felt this gave us less pressure this time around. 13 days past our transfer & I couldn’t sleep that night, I was up at 6 am and I did the test. Nerves coming all over us I jumped back into bed. Me & my husband went to check the test together, we could not believe what we were seeing, first time in 5 years we finally had a positive pregnancy test “IM PREGNANT” we both burst out crying & just held each other. We were finally going to be parents. We of course had a long way to go but we were so excited. 

We are now 29 weeks pregnant with a little boy due in May 2021 and we are truly blessed. It took a lot of time to get where we are but we never gave up. Sometimes we still can’t quite believe that we are going to be parents after almost 5 years of trying.
