Last year I posted about my wife's possible pregnancy through IVF (In Vitro Fertilization), but now it has actually happened and been confirmed through an initial pregnancy a test and a follow up test as well.

 

Woohoo!!! :D

 

Conception date was Sept 11, a nice positive note I think (to me it's a day of courage and strength).

 

This was an entirely immaculate conception. I can't have kids naturally, so they surgically extracted sperm and froze several small vials. My wife did another IVF cycle (lots of meds, tests, injections, minor surgery, etc) and finally these two embryos were implanted:

They were the stronger 5 day embryos (as opposed to 3 day embryos we had to use the last two attempts because there weren't enough eggs fertilized), and the doctor thinks there is a very strong chance for twins (hard to say percentage, maybe 50/50).

 

(If we do have twins I'll have to decide who to tell was the "ugly" embryo, hehe :laugh: )

Congratulations! Hope it works out for the both of them!

Congratulations Ben. I remember the first time you were trying this.

I'm happy it finally worked out. :)

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

Man, they haven't even been born yet and you're already showing off pictures of them to everyone! ;) Heh, seriously though, congrats. :)

Thanks everyone!

 

Reality is STARTING to sink in, a little tiny bit at a time.

Oh I know! I think I'm going to miss sleeping the most, especially if we have twins! :blink:

Well the one on top is more developed (it has started to undergo blastulation, whereas the lower one is still at the morula stage), but of course this has no correlation to which of the twins is born first.

Congratulations!! You must be so excited. I have no words of wisdom to offer as my husband & I only have cats, but I'm sure you'll make a wonderful Daddy!

Hey there you gals, nice to see you over here on TDM forums! Thanks for the support, we are doing well and learning more every day, quite an adventure and still not quite 100% real yet, but more so than before.

 

Happy Beta Testing!!! ;)

      (I just write this down, because it's on my mind)
      I think it's time somebody makes the city hub fm 😉
      Technically I see 2 possible ways.
      1. One is where everything takes place inside one mission and you teleport to different enclosed areas of the map to do subquests.
      2. Another is a campaign style mission. You start inside the cityhub. When you do a subquest, the mission ends, but the next mission you load the specific quest-map. This questmap you load is depended on what subquest you choose to start inside the map. Afterwards you load the 3th mission in the campaign which will be the cityhub map again, but via persistant info, changes some things inside the map (for example, you can't do the same subquest twice) and you have more gold maybe, etc, etc. So if the cityhub has 5 subquest missions that can be played in any order, the total amount of missions in the campaign would be 10, but the amount of map files 6. Because if you start in the cityhub map, after each subquest mission, you return to the cityhub map again, except for the last mission. When you make missions later you can add them to the cityhub again and make it bigger.
      (This seems all possible with changes made in TDM 2.13 , but I'm not 100% sure. It's at least an interesting project to work on)

      I started using Unexpected Keyboard for Android phone.
      It's pretty cool, because it has an actual Ctrl key, which you can use to do cut, copy and paste actions via x, c and v. pretty handy in the forums, to move quoted text around for example.

      Dammit there are too many missions available now. That's what I get for being away for so long. Such a first-world problem.

      The best thing about not mapping more than like every other year is the awesome feeling to see how far TDM has gotten in all appartments. I can just create some parallaxing cobblestones and walk to and fro and just let the jaw drop
