I decided to post here since I've decided not to tell anyone IRL (well, except dh, my mom, dad, and sister) and I've just got to write my thoughts down....
Anyway...we are all in complete shock! I got a + hpt this weekend...I would be due the first week in May.
This is incredibly shocking b/c my dh and I struggled with infertility for 2 years before finally doing IVF to conceive our twin girls (about to turn 2 in October). My fertility dr. told me it would probably never happen and if it did, I would be at high risk for a tubal pg.
So, here I am....I can't tell you the feeling I got to watch a hpt turn +. It was like, wow, this is how it must feel to all the women who are able to conceive naturally. We did it somehow. My body actually worked!
I can't get in to see my OB until next week, but they told me if I'm not bleeding and not having pain, assume that things are just fine.
This is just so ironic...when I was pg with my twins, I had an amazingly real dream about this psychic lady. She sucked in my breath (I know, wierd!) and told me I was having 3 girls - 2 now, and 1 later. That dream may have all been true!
Anyway, just wanted to share my secret excitement and a little fear...both with hoping its not tubal and also the thought of having 3 children under 3!! But honestly, I am so excited. I have this image of the new baby in a sling while I'm doing stuff with the other girls. It may sound simple, but I wanted to sling my twins so bad and it was just so hard.
So, hello, if you've gotten this far! I hope to be around until next May!
