I got my BFP one week ago while on my honeymoon!!! :love :love What perfect timing is that?! We'd been TTC for 6 months. I'm a happy One Thread grad. :D

This is my 4th baby & I'm due 12/24/07. I have been walking around chanting "pregnant with my fourth... pregnant with my FOURTH!!" in my head for days. :lol It sounds like such a huge number in my mind!

We traveled around Germany & the Czech Republic for our honeymoon. It was amazing amazing amazing. I had absolutely no signs or symptoms of pregnancy but decided that I might as well test just "to make sure" because we were drinking so much delicious Czech beer. Lo & behold 2 lines showed up. You could have knocked me over with a feather I was so shocked!!! And so, I enjoyed just one more fantastic beer, took a picture of it :lol & started trying to wrap my brain around this pregnancy. It is sooo weird to be pregnant without symptoms. Although in the past week I have had some queasiness so that was reassuring.

It's funny because I actually posted in this DDC in one of the very first threads, saying that I had never ever posted in a DDC I didn't know if I was going to be a part of yet because I was so sure it was going to jinx things. :lol I guess it did the opposite!

I am SO EXCITED to be here & get to know all you guys. I was in the Nov 05 DDC from the beginning & LOVED it so so much. I'm so happy to get to do this again. Pregnancy AND DDCing. :love :love :love

Congratulations everyone! Let's grow some babies!!!!!!! :baby :storkboy :storkgirl :baby :storkboy :storkgirl :baby :storkboy :storkgirl :baby :storkboy :storkgirl

Welcome!!! Wow, I just have to point out that we have two kiddos that are the same age (including the one in utero) and I live only about 5 min north of Portland! Congrats!!!

Thanks everyone! My MIL is visiting until Monday so I haven't had the time I normally would to jump on here & chat. :wink

jlwagner, how cool that we live so close! We're actually out on the Beaverton/Hillsboro border, dreaming of the day we can buy some land further out. Ahh dreamy......

stellimamo how totally awesome that we graduated from the one thread together AND share the same due date!

mewsin, cool! We'll have to compare 4th pregnancy stories. :thumb

boobs4milk, wow we do have similarly aged kids, I just forgot to have one in 1995 like you did. :lol And yeah, SEVEN! That IS a ton!!! (hee hee, I'm just teasing you :p )

Belleweather, I'm really super goofily happy to have a Nov 05 ddc buddy in here with me. :love

I'm still feeling just kinda weird due to my lack of symptoms! I've never been pregnant while breastfeeding so I know it must be the hormones I've already got going on that are keeping the symptoms at bay. But it's super hard to believe that I'm even pregnant half the time!!

Oh Fern, thanks! :love :love And thanks for your sweet words on the one thread too. :) The funny thing is, I don't think I will EVER forget my Nov 05 DDC mamas, even when I'm an old lady! You were all such a gigantic part of my pregnancy experience, it would be like forgetting my midwife existed, y'know? So that means that someday, when I'm like 97, I will be sitting around reminscing (sp?) & will wonder, "Hmmmm, I wonder how that cool Fern girl I used to know is....?" :D

Jillybeans, thanks~!! You're due on my toddler's birthday. :) It's a good birthday. I'll be checking on you in your ddc from time to time. Especially when your edd is approaching!! (OMG, can you believe it, we're going to give birth again!!! :dizzy: :jumpers: :love )

I was also ecstatic to know I was pregnant with my fourth. We've been trying for a few months.

Right NOW I am sick as a dog and, well, not exactly glowing. I can't wait to get back to the happy part.

Congratulations!!
