Is the third time the charm?

Hi ladies! Well, here I am again. Terrified and excited and nauseous. I got a BFP last night and again this morning (totally unexpected, since we only had sex three time this month and I didn't think even at the right times).

If you don't remember me, I'll let you know my story real quick. I am 26 now, engaged to Jeremy, and had my first miscarriage on 9/11/2007 at 9 wks. I barely knew I was pregnant before we lost the baby. Then it took well over a year of trying before we got pregnant again, but it happened eventually and got a BFP in time for New Year's 2009. Everything was great with the second pregnancy - three perfect ultrasounds, perfect heartbeat and growth - until 3/7/2009 when I lost our baby boy at 14 wks. I had a scary hospital visit, emergency D&C, and then two weeks later my fiance had a major stroke. Talk about timing! He was in the hospital for three weeks (two weeks at a rehab center) with severe left side weakness. He wasn't paralyzed, thank goodness, but it took him a while to be able to sit up on his own, hold a spoon or even walk. But he came home after three weeks, walking with a cane on his own. Missed out on coaching his 9yr old's baseball team this summer, but we were just grateful that he was able to go to the games at all.

So, here I am, again!
