in Pregnant after 35

I'm not sure if you remember me but I posted back in December asking how long you were TTC. 

I'm happy to say I got my BFP in my 5th cycle on 1/15/14!  DH and I are both 38 and we are thrilled to be expecting #3.  We have two DS's ages 4 and almost 2 and are hoping for a girl but of course will be thrilled with a healthy baby boy or girl.

They have me on the normal Progesterone suppositories twice a day for the first trimester and my first appt and us is 2/17 which seems so far away. My pregnancies are very easy and this one seems to be following suit which makes me think it's another boy. My hormones seem to be a little more out of wack with this one though so who knows. I think I'm usually a little more stressed in the beginning with the normal fears of loss (we had 2 early losses before DS #1) so that could be it too.

Anyway, I just wanted to send an update and introduce myself. My history is in my siggy.
