Baby #3 Is On It's Way!!

Cycle/Month: 4/4
What we did: Our timing this month really wasn't great so I was completely convinced it wasn't going to happen this time around. I ddin't keep track of CM as well this month, and I'm not really sure when I O'd, but I think we managed to BD on O (based on what little data I collected on FF)
Testing: I got a really really faint line yesterday with FMU on the Walmart 88 cent test, so I tried again today with FMU on a FRER - Two pink lines almost instantly!
Symptoms: Really, not much! I've been pretty gassy lately, and I've been exhausted, but I thought that was from working a regular 9-5 and running my own photography business (which has been BUSY BUSY lately) and being a wife, mom, chauffeur, maid, etc... Apparently not!
How I told DH: I showed him the test yesterday morning with the very faint 2nd line, and he said it didn't count. He told me to wait a week and retest, but I just couldn't wait. I tested again this AM, and right before he left for work, I showed it to him. He was excited and so was I!
EDD: August 3rd, which is my oldest son's birthday! That's a crazy time of year for us (DH Bday in mid-July, our anniversary at the end of July, DS bday 8/3 and my bday is 8/7)
The Mush I learned so much from the ladies over in TTGP, although I didn't post much. We are waiting to tell anyone at least for a week, just to let the news sink in for us. This may be our last pregnancy, so I am really looking forward to enjoying every minute of it!

We are super excited to welcome baby #3 into our family, but we are nervous about relearning how to have a newborn since our two are 7 and 5 years old now. We also have a few things, logistically, to figure out, but we've got about 8 months to deal with it.

Baby #3: due July 10, 2014
We also look forward to welcoming baby #3! We have a 5yo boy & a 3 1/2 yo girl & were due with this baby July 30th. This was def unepected but we already actually started telling everyone bc were super ecited & its weird Im not getting much positive feedback. people are making me feel like weve ruined our family. were not well off but we both work hard and this baby is certainly a blessing not a burden. Feeling down and not sure how to ignore the negativity coming from people I love.
