...Anndddd here I go
For mine and Drew's anniversary, I found out some news. The I got a bun in the oven kind of news. YIKES! We weren't actively trying, but we weren't avoiding either. Kind of if it's meant to be, it will be. And so far it looks like it will be.
Had some issues with insurance and finding a doctor, (my old OB, luckily, is no longer an OB, and the OB I went to last May before that m/c no longer accepts my insurance) but I did find one. My numbers have been steadily going up, and as of yet no complications. I saw my perinatologist yesterday and got my first u/s. I measured 6w2d with a nice little heartbeat. Due to arrive 8/27ish.
Kind of a (huge) surprise, but back to the meant to be thing... I am feeling like this pregnancy is a gift from God. 1) This cycle, for the first time in my entire life, was totally normal. I got a bfp on cd 30 (in the past, I never o'd before cd 37). 2) several weeks before, my pharmacist talked me into trying a topical progesterone cream for my moods (he had been trying for a year, but for whatever reason, I did this time) and my numbers are up where they need to be (also a first) 3) My toddler is a monster, and I am always exhausted... meaning hardly any sexy time. Once to be exact. But...
I am feeling positive about the pregnancy, but I have many mixed feelings as well. I know a few of you (along side of me) have had problems, but please hang in there. When you least expect it, who knows. I love you girls, and I know how bad it sucks to read about someone else's good news. I didn't want to flaunt this, especially during the holidays so I waited, but I do need my support crew, because frankly, I am scared sh!tless =/. 5 m/c's can make one leary, and I am still very early in and anything can happen, even though it is starting out great.
So, there it is. My big secret I have been hiding since Dec15th. Bug is going to be a big brother! Please say a prayer
