I am almost 16 weeks now and waiting to feel the baby move for myself. The due date is October 17. I got to thinking about this journey I've been on. 21 months from start to finish trying to conceive. One miscarriage at 7 weeks. Multiple fertility tests. A referral to a fertility specialist and then bam this pregnancy. We had filled out the paper work for the specialist and were just waiting on my period to do the rest of the tests before we looked at IVF. I feel very blessed by this pregnancy. I'm concluded that we (the hubby and I) must be seasonal as both pregnancies were conceived in January. I want to enjoy this pregnancy and not focus on the past negatives but I also want others to know that people do struggle and if you ever find yourself struggling to get or stay pregnant, that you are not alone.
I suspect that this blog will probably turn into a bit of a baby blog for the next few months. I'll try to throw some knitting and dogs in from time to time. :-)
A friend set up a guessing game for me. You are all welcome to take a stab at guessing. I'm not sure if the link will work but the game is at http://expectnet.com/game.php and is referenced by adams_baby. Happy guessing. Me? I don't have a feeling yet. I'm just praying for a healthy full term baby.
