So, it's been crazy lately, with the holidays and moving into a new
house in the beginning of December. And I haven't been keeping very
good track of my fertility lately. I know I had no cycle in December
and none this month, and I've had some symptoms that have made me
wonder, so I bought the pregnancy test yesterday and took it this
morning. It was positive. Only I have no clue when my last cycle even
was. I know my period returned in September, and had a second in
October, but I cannot remember for the life of me, if I had a period in
November. I don't have it recorded, but it totally could have slipped
my mind to record it as I wasn't really back in the habit of keeping
charts and it was such a crazy time. Oh well. I guess the midwives
have some tricks for figuring this sort of thing out. It's a strange
sort of feeling of excitement and "oh no are we ready for this" I keep
having to remind myself that #1 will be older when the new baby
arrives. We didn't want huge gaps between our kids and were kind of
aiming for 18 months in between, so this is a little earlier than
expected. Depending on how far I really am, I'll be due in July or
August, which would make #1 16 or 17 months old. Oh well. Not sure how
I'm gonna make it through the summer that pregnant as with #1 I was
sweltering all winter long. Guess your body adjusts though. Just
needed to share. Posted this also on the March 2012 board as that is when #1 was born.
