My twin sister didn't have ANY problem getting pregnant and although it happened for her 5 months after me (RIGHT AWAY) it still hurt. And when we both tried for our 2nd, I was miscarrying after a recent IVF and she was getting pregnant RIGHT AWAY AGAIN!!! That was definitely tough but I got pregnant soon after her and now our kids are very close in age and it's really a wonderful thing! Hopefully it will happen for you one day soon too.Krissihttp://stressfreeinfertilityblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-368123558021140362.post-49579820223903682612011-04-22T17:16:34.273-04:002011-04-22T17:16:34.273-04:00Also stopping by from ICLW!

Shortly after losing our first son, who was conceived through IVF, my brother called to tell me that he and his wife were expecting twin boys. I was devastated to say the least and felt so bad for feeling that way since my brother and I are very close. But as time went on, it got easier. Although I can't visit them right now, my saddness has moved on to happiness for them and I wish them nothing but the best. Good luck to you in your journey and being an Aunt will be a wonderful time for you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-368123558021140362.post-3243601784581036412011-04-22T07:20:31.427-04:002011-04-22T07:20:31.427-04:00This is a beautiful post, Carmela.
