Pregnant and blessed

My husband and I were so excited when we found out we were pregnant in late July. It was so so wonderful knowing that this little life was with in me. On August 18th our precious angel went to be with the Lord. The miscarriage made me realize how fragile life is. It was painful, both mentally and physically.
That was a little over three months ago. I went to the dr last Wednesday about something totally unrelated to babies and she asked when my period was due, and I told her I should start any time now(my periods had been a little screwed up from the miscarriage but normally very scheduled) So she asked if she could try a pregnancy test, of course i said yes. The whole time she was gone, which was only probably two minutes but felt like an eternity, I was telling myself dont be silly, you are not pregnant. And I really honestly did not think I was. So she came back in and said Maybe and showed me what she said was one of the lightest second lines she had ever seen. I was surprised that there was even a possibility! So she sent me to get blood work and I went to work. I was so excited all day and could barely focus as I awaited the news. Around 3pm I could stand it no longer and I called the drs office and sure enough the results had just come in. The nurse gets on the phone and said well the second tests to see how far along you are havent come back yet. I said WHAT?!!!So I am pregnant?! The nurse laughed and said I was. I was soooo happy but wished my husband was there to hear it with me. He is my best friend and in this with me 100%. I praise God every day for giving us this baby and a wonderful husband. I am still nervous since it is still very early in the pregnancy (I am only five weeks and was around six weeks when I miscarried) but I know that it is all in God's control and not mine. I pray that you all have wonderful peaceful pregnancies!

Thankful

I am always hungry and moody!

Why am I always hungry? I eat and eat til the cows go home, and nothing seems to fill me up!!! Also, I'm always moody, and the slightest thing seems to set me off it seems. Tto make matters worse, I find it hard to let things go, even when they are just small issues. I feel like Im making life hard for my fiance right now, and I had to apologize to him about my emotional outbursts and to "bare with me". I have a 4 year old, but for some reason, pregnancy this time around is different. I feel like im starting all over again as if I have never been pregnant or gave birth before. Is anyone else out there feeling the same?

A huge gift and surprise

My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 7 or 8 years. We are both 30 years old. I have PCOS and very irregular periods. We have gone through many procedures with no luck. Now out of the blue I started to feel like I was pregnant. I just knew I was. I tested and it was positive. I woke my husband at 4:00 a.m. The same day I went to see my OBGYN and it was confirmed. I am 6 weeks and will have my ultrasound on Friday. So all I can say to you women it that it will happen to you to and good luck.

high and low of pregnancy

hi. just like some of you i had twin miscarriaged last april at 12 weeks, during the scan the sonographer couldnt find any heartbeat to any of them. i was really disappointed and crying all day, but i realized never had a fine day on that entire first trimester of my pregnancy. i experienced the worst discomforts of first trimester. added to that we were not 100 percent for their coming. though when we found out, i felt guilty and sad. But I put them behind now because i am having another one. thank God it is just single. Though i experience some discomforts, it is a way way better than my previous. Though i cant avoid thinking negative. I am having my 2nd scan today and hopefully my baby is ok and this will make my mind at rest when i see him/her today at 2 weeks where i can see the rest of his/her body...:). to all the mom out there, take care...
