OMG Laura BE STRONG!! My problem when I got my referral video was that I couldn't get the stinking thing to work in my pc. I was told to download some free software yadda yadda yadda and nothing worked. I drove to my aunts house who lives near where I work and tried her DVD and THERE SHE WAS!! The most beautiful baby I'd ever seen...MY BABY! Oh I'm so excited for you I have chills!!! Hang in there!!

OMG, you poor thing. When I went for the blood test for our invitro to see if we were prego, I also wasn't allowed to answer to phone or check the messages until hubby got home. I went to lunch with a friend to keep me occupied but when I got home the machine was blinking and it took everything to not check the message. I called my hubby and made him rush home. Then the message was from my mother seeing if I heard yet. I wanted to kill her. Unfortunately, when they did call the dh was home and I was so glad because I think that was the first nervous break down I ever had.

Hope he comes home soooooon!

Good luck on your referral, I will be praying for a beautiful, healthy child for you.

LauraH,

Congratulations and keep us updated!!! When our referral info arrived, it wasn't my wife that was the problem, it was me! I couldn't control my excitement... Happy Holidays and hope all goes well.
