Is it okay to start an "I'm not sure if I am yet" thread? - Page 3

First time I have lurked over here.

AF is late as of this morning. Dh and I had one (1!!!) night of ttc and it seems like we shot a hole in one. My pants feel snug all ready (this is my thrid baby) and my uterus feels swollen and twingey.



: Three kids!!! We are super excited.

Just took two of the clear blue easy digital tests. Both say pregnant. Dh is in denial. He wants me to test again in a couple weeks to make sure. I'm half happy, half sad. This will be my last pregnancy (he wants to get a v). I didn't want to wait the years that he wanted to wait for our next and kind of sometimes wished for an oops. At the same time, I know logically this isn't the best time. Plus, I wanted him to be happy that I was pregnant and he is so far from that. But, I'm pregnant and he'll grow to love the baby once it is here anyway. Youngest was an oops too and dh absolutely adores him.

Those tests are so cool btw. With my other two, I just used normal tests (I don't even think they had this kind when I was pg with Oldest). In the store this morning I was trying to talk myself into getting the cheap kind but I was like wth, if I'm not, I'll have wasted money but if I am won't it be cool to see the "pregnant" appear. And it was

I may be wrong but I believe this is what my midwife told me when I was pregnant with my oldest. Also, most women I've known in real life tend to have had just one. Very few have had more than one. Online the view tends to be a little skewed. But online is well... Online. I had a m/c with my first, have had two perfectly healthy boys after that. Many women I know who have had children have had one m/c. Only 1 has had multiple. The odds are just way less. Of course, that doesn't stop the worry, I know! Here's to a sticky baby for you

that is comforting!

Just wanted to chime in that I'm still ???. I tested on Friday, but that would have been almost 5 days early. I'm now getting my typical pregnancy bloody noses. My period should be showing up today, but it's not here yet. If it's not here by Wed. I'll test again.

That was something for me too. With each pregnancy I've thought my allergies were acting up or I was getting a cold. Each time I took some kind of allergy/cold medicine and then a little while later discovered I was pg. This time I got the stuffy nose but I am cutting down on typical meds so I didn't take anything. I didn't even take echinacea (my cure all ) b/c I just got a new kitten and am allergic so thought it was due to that. I get a bloody nose but only because I blow my nose so much. Hope its a baby for you too
