Where there's LOVE there's HOPE

Up until a few months ago the idea of having children wasn't part of my "I'm Desperate for..." list. I got married relatively young (23) and felt I wanted to get a few things done before taking on such a huge responsability, and even though my DH and I weren't avoiding kids we weren't exactly looking for them either.

Last year in January I found out I was pregnant during my routine check up. I felt an overflowing joy I couldn't explain. How could something I wasn't even expecting bring me so much happiness? We were close to our 2nd year anniversary and I couldn't think of a better gift. My enthusiasm and excitement quickly vanished when I was diagnosed with a blighted ovum (meaning no embryo had formed) and had a misscarige. A month after that I became pregnant (unexpected) again but was diagnosed with a molar pregnancy (similar situation to the one before). At that time I realized that children are trully a blessing and miracle of GOD. I'm just hoping I will be blessed with the joy of motherhood one day.

Now, my DH and I are trying to make it work. I started my first cycle of Clomid 100 mg, and next week April 9 am due to ovulate. Even though I know science does its part, in my prayers I'll make sure I ask the BIG guy up there to shine down a little of his grace upon us.

trying to relax

hi, i'm sarah and i'm 21. I have been with my boyfriend for 3 years now and we've started trying for a baby. It's so frustrating, as we want one so much. A couple of months have gone by unsuccessfully, but this month feels different.

i have been reading up on early symptoms of pregnancy and am trying not to get my hopes up since worrying will not help me anyway but this baby is wanted so much.
The only thing now is my boyfriend is away for 2 weeks and we made love before he went but i don't know if it was too early?

if there is anyone out there who can help ease my worrying it will be greatly received!!

thanks for reading

My Baby Story

Getting pregnant was the hardest thing in my life. My Hubby and i tried for a year, and couldn't get pregnant. He smoked a lot of weed at the time, and then after a year of trying we gave up, and thought it was him or me who couldn't have babies. We thought maybe if he stopped smoking weed, we could try. He stopped smoking weed for 6 mths, and after 3 months i was pregnant. We were so happy.

How i knew i was pregnant? i was very sleeply, drinking made me sick, my boobs hurt, and I didn't get a period for 1 mth and that just wasn't me. My pregnancy was amazing, and i would do it again. I didn't get to make it to my last month of being pregnant, i had a preme baby boy who was in the hospital for 2 weeks. And now he is 10.7lbs and is doing amazing!!!!!!

Suprise, suprise.

This story is a funny story about how I found out I was pregnant with my son, Bryan.

I was on active duty in the Army and was stationed at Ft. Bragg, NC. A friend of mine was pregnant (which is sad because she eventually lost it due to a growth on her ovary crushing the fetus). We were talking one day about pregnancy. I told everyone that I couldn't get pregnant. I had only been married 3 months and I have very irregular periods (I can go sometimes 6 months without having one). I didn't show any signs of it or anything. My friends laughed and joked around saying that I was. So, in an effort to show them that I wasn't and prove them wrong (which is my personality to "always be right") I bought a pregnancy test. I decided to take a long bath, since that day was particularly stressful. So, I peed on the stick, sat it on the rim of the tub, and proceeded to start the water and get ready. When I was ready to jump in I took a glance at the test which I was ultimately sure it would say negative. Guess what. It was positive. I was in shock. I just climbed in the bath and yelled for my husband (now ex). He was very happy. Now I have a wonderful, happy, beautiful 4 yr old boy. I'm very glad that I was wrong that day.
