Pregnant and due in mid-October!

Yes..we're super happy! Never thought it would happen, of course..now taking it easy!
Otherwise very few complaints, this morning a slight wave of nausea, my breasts are growing enormously again, craving butter ham (which I don't usually eat), and if I eat too much I notice it..otherwise very tired..if it stays like this ..that would be really nice..
First, let's get past that 6-7 week limit..on Monday I'll call the midwife, they can do an ultrasound at 6 weeks, and I'll naturally do that too..at the hospital though..
It's nice that you have just as many chances as Jaimy. Exciting next week, any symptoms?

Have a nice weekend!

Love

Hi there!

That's amazing news, I'm so happy for you! And now just enjoy the symptoms, those are your signs... hold on tight!

Yes, next week is so exciting, I still haven't had any symptoms yet... But I don't think it'll be a hit right away either... It's only my first month being a woman again hihi... It took a while for everything to start working properly again. But not wanting to waste any time, we're giving it a go hihihi. I'm taking it easy and seeing what happens. The fear of another loss is still a bit present, but I'm trying to focus on the fun things. A third little miracle is very welcome.

Glad to hear things are going so well with you!

Best, Angela

ok, did you have any complications after the surgery?
yes, the fear of it happening again is still there, but my desire for children has also grown stronger.. I feel good and enjoy it immensely.. I try to keep that in the foreground...
Take it easy!

have a nice evening!

@Kate..how are you? Do you already know what you'd like?

Hi,

It's going well. I've managed to come to terms with it fairly well. It's just a weird thought that I could have been 17 weeks pregnant by now. Sometimes you get hit with the facts here and there.

We still haven't decided. It's tough!
My husband says it's not a 100% no or yes. I'm not entirely sure either. For me, it feels so special to experience it and see it grow one last time.

Of course, we already have 2 beautiful kids (a girl and a boy), which helps. We're also wondering about the age gap between the youngest two, which would be 4.5 years. Is that too old? The oldest is 7.
But time keeps ticking on.

By the way, I'm not afraid it would happen to me again.

Love, Kate

Hi Kate,

Yeah, if you already have two super cute kids, you probably look at it from a different perspective and the choice feels different too. I don't think the age gap would matter much... then they often experience it more consciously anyway.
Sometimes it does help to take a break for a while, and suddenly you can get a really strong feeling towards a certain direction...
Maybe it feels a bit weird because your last pregnancy was a surprise but still wanted.
It's nice that things are going well, that's worth a lot!

Love,

Hey there, I'm due on Oct 19th. Really nice forum. We're really curious, a girl or a boy... the 20-week ultrasound is incredibly nerve-wracking.
