Trying to Get Pregnant

The Schrutes produce very thirsty babies

And so do I and I'm going to be producing one more!  BFP for me!!!

Tested positive last night and this morning! 

Stats:  I'm 36 and this was our fifth month trying for baby number 3.  I chart and use opk's.  This cycle we had sex O-4 and O-1.

How I told my husband:  When we first started TTC I bought a Miami Dolphins bib (he's a big fan) and a "baby on board" decal (because he said he wanted one of those for his car when I got pregnant).  I wrapped both of those, along with the digital test I took this morning, and put them in a Valentine's Day bag.

When he came home from work I said that I had his Vday present and wanted to give it to him early because I knew he would really like it.  He opened the bib and thought it was cute but didn't really catch on.  When he opened the baby on board decal he looked at me and said, "Are you pregnant?".  I told him to just keep opening his presents.  He starts to open the pee stick and it falls out of the wrapping paper onto the floor.  He fumbled around trying to find it with his foot and couldn't.  So we were both on the floor on our hands and knees looking under the couch and the coffee table trying to find the stupid thing.  It was very anti-climactic when we finally found it and looked at it while we were both sprawled on the floor like fools.  We climbed back onto the couch and hugged and he got all emotional which, of course, made me cry too.

Thanks for all of the laughs and encouragement over the last several months ladies.  I'll be praying for all of you :)
