My husband and I just found out last Thursday that we are expecting #2! This was something we have been hoping for but it was a BIG surprise! We had to do IVF to get pregnant with our DS so we were thinking we would have to go back to that again for #2. We did 2 IUIs last Spring and no luck, we took the summer off and no luck either. My period never came back after I had it in early July so we decided to do one more round of IUI and then save up for IVF if that didn't work. Well I did a blood test in early Sept and not pregnant, so then a week or so later I started birth control to get my estrogen level up before the IUI. I finished my pills on Oct. 5th and period wasn't coming. My doctor wanted to wait until I had pink since I was having some brown spotting but it wasn't coming. I was to check in with him that Friday to decide if we were going to do the meds anyway or do meds to start my period. Well on Thursday I realized I hadn't been feeling very well the couple days prior and told a friend that I knew I wasn't pregnant (still not believing we could do it on our own) but I really felt the same way I did during my first tri with my DS. I figured I was just catching a bug. I decided that morning I would do a cheap test I had at home right before I got in the shower. I got out of the shower and sure enough BFP. I did another one and BFP! I showed my husband and he was in complete shock as well. I did a blood test Thurs and my HCG level was at over 27,000 so he had me come in for a u/s yesterday. I am 6 1/2 wks along! We are extremely happy about this but shocked at the same time. Our DS turned 1 at the end of Aug.
Good luck to all of the other 2U2 mom's out there!!
