After a few years of trying, two losses, lots of tears (from me of course), thousands of dollars and lots of doctors appointments we are officially going from two humans to three in this house.
I have the say the hubby and I are so excited. I met with my OB last week and he told me we had officially defied the odds getting pregnant in our situation without any help from a doctor. I feel like this baby is such a blessing.
For anyone who has ever lost a pregnancy or two you will probably understand this. I feel like I am always on edge. I over analyze every strain, pinch or cramp. I am worried that this one won’t work out either, because why would the third one magically be the charm?
But I try to stay positive. My doctors say everything looks amazing and the heartbeat is strong and right where they want it. So really I shouldn’t worry. I know that. I know that things are going amazing and I am so thankful for this. I just hope that even though I have some extra challenges and I fall in the high risk category I hope that we will again defy the odds and have a happy, healthy baby in January.

So excited for you! Ever since your last infertility post you’ve been on my mind and I’ve been keeping you in my thoughts, so this is such a great thing to see. Congrats!!

Why are you considered high risk?? I am so excited and happy for you both!!!?

Great question Beth, I have a funny shaped uterus but we’re not sure exactly what kind. So it could potentially cause pre-term labor and/or low birth weight in addition to the fact that the baby will likely be breech. So, fun stuff. But I hope I am worrying about nothing and everything will turn out great.

holy moly! That sounds a bit crazy, but I am sure they will take wonderful care of you. You may just have to take some time off the early morning milkings though huh ?? 😉 FULL TIME BLOGGER!!

It sounds crazy even to me because I am feeling so good. It doesn’t feel like anything could go wrong so hopefully that will continue and be the case. I am definitely preparing for being put in bed rest so full time blogging might be it!
