Its nice to know

With my first, I didnt think I was pregnant because I spotted for 3 days, I took it as a cycle. When I got pregnant with my second one the same thing happened, yet again I didn't think about it. So when my husband and I thought I was again, I decided to listen to my body, and it happend again. About three weeks after that, I found out I was pregnant. Crazy huh.

18 years apart!

My mom had me when she was 18 and swore she would never have another! 17 years later she had a change of heart. I was staying at a friends house and my mom called and told me she needed me to come by the house for a second. When I got there she had tears in her eyes and she told me she was pregnant. We cried and hugged. 7 months later my little sister arrived! She's now almost 4 and hopefully going to be an aunt sometime soon!!

Wishful Waiting

My husband and I recently moved back home from Baltimore and decided just to take things as they happened. Back in Feb, I got my period which was a few days late. It lasted the typical 3-4 days and then about a week later, I got some unexplained bleeding and cramping. Found out I was pregnant...then two days later, found I soon would not be. The one good thing that came of it was that we both realized how much we both wanted a baby....so, now we are trying but the key is trying to relax and not get all stressed out about it...then it may not happen!
I took a pregnancy test a couple days ago but it was negative. However, the first time I was pregnant, I took a test when my period was due and it was also negative....then a week and a half later, it was positive....so I have no idea...I thought I knew when I ovulated....UGH!! I think I am so frustrated from trying to try that I just may give up! Seems I can't figure out what the heck my body is up to!!

Am I?

Well I'm 21 and have been married for one year and nine months now. Ever since I was a baby myself, I had imagined getting pregnant right after getting married. As soon as I got married, though, my husband and myself decided that we were too young to have a baby right now; we would wait awhile. We managed to wait all of six months. I always thought that it would be so easy considering my mum got pregnant a month after getting married and my only sibling my brother and his wife were pregnant a month after they got married also. Well I guess I was different!

Eight months after trying, I got my period heavier then usual. My period has always been on time and never for more then six days. Well, this time I had the most awful cramps and aching stomache. My period stopped at day seven but then the next morning that I woke up it had started again. It was really watery and smelled different. The period continued and by day ten I was so worried. I told my best friend and her advice was to not be worried because she sometimes had the same thing and its just the hormones. Well because of the sick feeling in my stomache, without telling anyone except my husband the reason, I went to the doctor the next day. The first thing that she made me do was the pregnancy test. I didnt think much about it and so I wasnt at all prepared for her to say that "um it says here that you are pregnant." She also said it in a worried voice. When I asked if she was sure she said that this test was 99.9% accurate. She planned a scan for me the next day which meant that I had to rush home after completing my university exam to the doctor.

Well the scan was a depressing thing because nobody could give me a staight answer: it was either a very early pregnancy or I had a miscarrige because they couldnt see anything there. I also had a blood test and another pregnancy test a week later. Sadly both came back negative. The one thing that really angered me is that the doctor that was there at the time that the blood results came back which was different from the first doctor said that maybe I had never been pregnant! Sheeesh I mean nobody has agonising cramps and bleeds for 15 days can say that its nothing!

Anyway my husband was the most supportive thing; he was the one that calmed me down and said that'll happen when it happens. Well, its been six moths after my miscarriage and I have missed my period by a week. I'm also getting cramps, a sick feeling and light headedness. Oh and not to mention my trips to the loo in this freezing new zealand weather! So here's praying that I'll be able to shout the good news out soon!
