I have a nervewracking evening ahead of me.

I get to go home and take a pregnancy test. Would it be the worst thing in the world if we wind up having #2 now? No. Were we planning it if I am? No. If I am, I'm going to be very mad at the makers of my BC pills that I've religiously taken and never, ever once missed in the year I've taken them since Toddler Malibu was born.

So uh, yeah. That's my big plan for the evening.

Oh, FFS.

Re: I have a nervewracking evening ahead of me.

  • Ooohhh...good luck!  I hope you get the outcome you are hoping for.

  • Good luck! Let us know what happens! 
  • Well F.

    I will be giving Husband Malibu a heart attack tonight. That is if I survive the one I might have now that the big glaring plus sign is staring me in the face. I guess I knew that was going to be the answer but...I am still a little bit in shock.

    I am estimating the due date to be August 19th. Two under 2. This should be interesting... 

    Oh, FFS.
  • Well congrats and good luck. I know it isn't what you were hoping for, but I'm sure you'll do great.
  • Ooohhh malibu, this news sounds bittersweet. Congrats and a h&h nine (really ten??) months.

  • Thanks...I am just so shocked. I am sure once it sinks in a little I will be happy, right now I am crunching numbers in my head and wondering how in the h3ll we are going to pull this off. 

    At least I know my H will be calm. He takes anything you throw at him and rolls with it, he is the most levelheaded person I know. 

    Oh, FFS.
  • Wait, is this a confirmation of a YES?  Hit us on the head with it!

  • Congrats Malibu! I know having two under two will present its challenges, but you'll also have a lot more love. :-)
    This is my siggy.
  • Congrats! Sorry this wasn't what you were planning, but everything happens the way it is supposed to. You guys will be fine. H&H 9 months!

    I sent you a pm ...

    Thanks! I sent you one back, I think. Did it from my phone, not entirely sure it worked. And if it did, there may be some horrendous spelling errors, ha ha! 

    Oh, FFS.
  • Congrats!  At least you already know that you make cute babies!

  • LOL Morty, that is true, won't dispute that!! Haha I am a little biased though. :-)
    Oh, FFS.

    Boo! Didn't get it!

  • Argh, stupid phone. Will have to try again at work tomorrow. H has the laptop with him.
    Oh, FFS.
  • Congrats!  I know it's not according to plan, but it's exciting nonetheless!
  • Best of luck and congrats :) Surprises can be wonderful.

     

    If it helps... I got pregnant with DS on the pill too. Taken religiously every day.

  • Well hell, Congratulations!! 

    My kids are slightly more than 2 years apart (2 years and 4 days to be exact), but it's been mostly fun.  :)   

  • Congrats Malibu!! I know it's unexpected, so probably bittersweet/freaky/etc right now ... I hope everything goes well! 

  • Congratulations! You'll be just fine, I know it.

  • I am late to this.  Congrats.  You will do grea!
  • Thanks everyone! I feel a little better today. The inital shock is wearing off a little bit. H did not have a heart attack. He was calm, just as he was the first time I burst out of the bathroom with a positive pee stick crying my eyes out, and was mostly excited about having another tax deduction. Haha. I still have the urge to write a strongly worded letter to the manufacturer of my BCPs, like that would do any good. Oh well, this one will be loved just as much as the first!
    Oh, FFS.
  • Awww, congrats! You can totally do this. You have nine more months to figure it all out, and everyone will do great.

    Just out of curiosity, what kind of BCP were you taking? Just so I can add to my "Do Not Want" list (which is already pretty long).

    Mononessa is the one I take. I will be adding it to my list as well. I might get the tubes tied with this one, since I will likely have another c-section, so BCP will be a thing of my past anyway!  

    Oh, FFS.
