That is so cool David, congrats to both of you! It took us six years before we had our first one too. We had gone through the same crap you did except for the procedures, we weren't going to do that. We finally gave up hope and were considering adopting and the next thing we know she's pregnant. Two kids, both c-sections (the first was not planned) and everyone made it through just fine.
I don't want to get your hopes up but our daughter started sleeping through the night after about six weeks. Three weeks of hell with colick but after that it was smooth sailing. Oh, when our son came along he forgot that we needed sleep too and didn't start sleeping through the night until he was two years old.
See what you have to look forward to? lol!
