3/8 check in!!
This discussion has been closed.
Re: 3/8 check in!!
1. I am 5 weeks 6 days
2. Symptoms: bloated/gassy, tired, a little nauseous, and a bit emotional
3. Cravings: change daily - couldn't get enough strawberries today.
Aversions: I know them when I see them.
4. No appts this week
5. Reaction: We were not trying and using the NFP method. I had a very regular cycle so when I was late, I was in denial. Before DH went to work, I decided to just check and when it came back positive I said, "this is a game changer." He rather sarcastically replied, "congratulations." Not a story we will be telling other people but the real.honest.truth. We've since started coming around and I think it's pretty cool to have a love child. This will be our third LO.

5. What was your reaction the day you found out you were pregnant? I was shocked, it happened the first time we went off back up BC! I had heard it can happen really fast the second time, but it still surprised me. I called my husband and told him to plan on taking us out to dinner that night.

5. My reaction when i found out? Very surprised we werent trying. But definitely wanted to try soon i wanted to wait till my first son turned two (Hes now 16 months). I had a mix of emotions, im in my cousins wedding in September and im the maid of honor and i really dont want to disappoint her. Being the maid of honor i have lots of duties to fill and i hope she believes i will still put my all into her wedding (even tho i cant share a couple drinks anymore with her). Oh and im supposed to buy my dress by the end of this month so it will come in on time. I dont know what to do... As you can see this has been a real weight on my shoulder and makes it hard to be happy that i have a huge blessing to be proud of... I just need to get through telling my cousin so i could enjoy my pregnancy.
