Amen to that. My husband keeps trying to curse me with octuplets.  The day we have octuplets is the day I get myself fixed. I keep telling him that if it's more than quads, he's going to be getting a hormone shot to stimulate lactation, but it doesn't seem to be sinking in.

I don't even want one so how all the Mommies on here do it is beyond me. Kudos to ya'll (including the soon to be mommies)! Yay to the dads too, but who ever decided babies have to come out the way they went in is a jerk. I hope he got kidney stones.

Well, you know, babies don't always have to come out the same way they went in. My son was born by cesarian. He had his head turned sideways looking at my right hip, (or rather looking at his father, who was sitting on my right side talking to him. Of course, he had to look at daddy.) and got wedged in my pelvis. Believe me, as fast as my labor progressed, it would have been faster (and less painful!) for him to have been born the normal way.

 Thank you for reminding me why all my children are on the hoof and sleep in the pasture.

That certainly is the least painful method (except for all the deplorable scrutiny), but after you get them however you get them all bets are off ... these days, my daughter just says 'no' to everything as a matter of course.
Brava to you, Freya, adoption is a beautiful and a brave choice, I think.

I'm sure eveyrthing will be great, and you'll be mommy and daddy to a little bundle of joy and cuteness in no time at all. 
This really is awesome - I just can't stop giggling, and I'm not even the mommy-to-be!

Oh how exciting!!!  Do you know if its a baby girl or boy yet? Or maybe one of each? Hopefully by now you are past all of the morning sickness and are just in the exciting "I'm gonna have a baby" phase now.

Oh holy... oh dear.. Ghetto.. Jes... get here for a big hug.  
Wow I am simply speechless, after reading all these well wishes... We're now four and a half months under way and I am finally letting go of the fear that we will loose the baby like we did the previous two times. Yeah no pink clouds here.
So this basically means: starting to enjoy what is going on. For Do, wow your first time. I am so happy that it is smooth sailing for you. I have been in the grip of fear the past months. But yes.. it is really happening. Yay!
I have been laughing so hard about the post by our male members... yes. I do recognise that! As for my two friends, I was already in such proportion's, but hubby feels like he is in a candy store these days. 
To all, big big thank you's. You all rawk! We don't know yet what it will be, but we already know the names. See my sig

Mine too, her default setting is on "No" Even when it something she likes, like bath time or milk. Most perplexing.
Do? Any weird cravings? Wife didn't have any but we should now own part of Blue Bell Icecream. Went through gallons of Dutch Chocolate.

That is what we heard a lot after the second time from people around us. It was said with the best intentions, but you feel so incredibly emty handed. We already gave up on it, especially after all the medical research we had after that. So we feel very blessed with this small wonder and a bit amazed as well.

oh yes you do feel just incredibly empty. And yes people do try and comfort you with the best of intentions. I did find some small comfort in the fact that I was not so incredibly alone. It did ease the ache somewhat.
I will continue to pray for you and just reaffirm that the lowest lows are countered by the highest of highs.
what they've all said, I'm incredibly happy for you, especially knowing how extra precious this little bundle is!!!!
