Also in August we got some very AMAZING news. We were pregnant. I truely still can't believe it. 4+ years ago when we went through invitro with Cody we had about a 15% chance to concieve naturally. yes once you give birth you chances may go up, but time was not on our side. Craig and I are both 39 and with our issues our chances naturally are probably closer to 5-10%. In the last 2 years we have tried invitro 2x both with our frozen embryos. The first time was successful but ended in miscarraige and the second just didn't take. I still had a little hope but was giving it til the end of the year before we would no longer try.
The end of July came and no you know what. Not wanting to junx myself i actually waited about 8 days to take the test. it immediatly came back positive. I was in shock and still am..
The beginning of my pregnancy was not easy, I was sick from the minute I woke up until I went to sleep, I never actually got sick, but felt like crap all day long until about week 16. I was also extremely exhausted. Probably because I have a toddler and I'm not so young anymore, hahaha. I did get the sea bands for motion sickness and they seemed to help a bit. At our 13 week ultrasound I asked the girl if she could tell and she said about 75% sure it was a girl as there was nothing showing. I have herd a bunch of stories of incorrect predictions for girls so i tried not to bank on that too much. At our 19 week scan it was confirmed... She is 100% a girl... I couldn't help but cry. I have dreamt of this since I myself was a little girl, Now all the fun begins... Pink Pink Pink (or purple)
Now @ 22 weeks I feel pretty good, have some energy back and can only complain about some lower back pain.
