Hi. I' a 36 year old mother of two.

I had my two girls when I was 21 and 22. Easy to concieve back then. After I had my girls I donated my eggs to a friend of my sisters because I wanted to help someone have what I had.

They had a baby boy!

Along the way, my ex husband and I divorced and I never thought I would want to even think about having another baby.

This past year, I met the man I could spend a thousand forever's with, my soul mate, the love of my life. We were married within the year, and now we are trying to conceive our first baby.

I thought it would happen right away. It did before, it did with my sister and everyone else I know. I am worried about my age. I know it takes time, and I need to relax and take it easy, it has only been since the end of July since I began trying.

I am hoping it happens soon, but in my heart I know the Lord will bless us with a baby if that is what His plan is.

Thankyou for reading this and if you have any advise... feel free... : )

Nov. 9th:

Second day of Af. Accepting the fact that it didn't happen this month. When we decided to ttc, we both guess how long we thought it would take, he guessed one month, I guessed 4. So this month.. in two weeks anyway, we will be on our fourth try. SO, I have the OPK and we'll just have to wait and see. I hate waiting.

Nov 10th: My Af stopped mid day. So it lasted only only 24 hrs. I wonder why so short. Its not normal for it to be so short for me, and I usually have horrible cramps. So, I think I'll test in the morning so I can rest my mind.

today is dec 14th. I have about 8 days before I ovulate again. I don't mind this waiting period half as much as the following two weeks. I wanted so bad to have a wonderful Christmas surprise, but it didn't happen. I know it will though, soon.
If it doesn't happen in the next two months, its time to visit the Ob/gyn.
Of course I hope this will be my month, but time will tell.
good luck to everyone ttc and congrats to all of you that have gotten your blessing, esspecially those in the 35 and over group!!

Tuesday, 26 Feb
It `s been 7 months of ttc. I am waiting for my AF on Sunday. I have a strong feeling this is going to be the month. I went to my OB/gyn, he said I have no reason to do anything but keep trying at this point, and if in 6 months I am not pregnant we can look into our options.So for now, we wait. Til Sunday at least, of maybe we will test early on Saturday. I am finally content with waiting, and even find it exciting.Good luck to you all TTC and those who have!

Friday, 29 Feb
I took 3 tests, all had at least a faint line, the first two I did 3 days before my AF. We bought those at the dollar store figuring its early and we don `t want to spend a ton on tests. I had a feeling I was pregnant this month because exactly 7 days after I ovulated, I had very light bleeding for about a day and a half. Both showed a very faint positive reading. We bought a better test and took it last night, two days before AF. ANother positive, this time a darker reading. I am due for my AF tomorrow, but I think this is really it. I got my BFP!!!

Monday, 10 Mar
I am 5 weeks pregnant and feel so darn tired and nauseas, my husband can `t believe how my bb have grown already, and I have been sleeping like crazy lately. I have never had so many symptoms, esp. this early on. My first Dr. visit is in one week. I can `t wait. I am just so happy to be pregnant. I don `t know what else to say, 7 months of trying, it finally happened!

Thursday, 13 Mar
Well, I am sick pretty much sick all day everyday, and tired! But its all good, I know my body is going through a lot of change and I am excited about it.I just called my Doc to make sure Monday is ok for my first appointment, I heard most Dr.s don `t want to see you until 10 weeks and I am at the end of my 5th week. So, they said Monday is perfect 6 weeks is exactly when he likes to start! So, I am happy to know I am doing the right thing. :)Its been so long, I really don `t remember as may details of my first two pregnancies. I do know I was sick for my first and perfectly fine with my second. ANyway, that `s my update. 5 Weeks and moving along!

Sunday, 30 Mar

I am approaching week 8 and for two days in a row I didn `t feel like complete Doo-Doo. Which makes me so so happy!!Not much else is new. I bought a maternity bathing suit today. Its very cute, so far I haven `t gained any wieght, but my tummy seems a bloated.I had all my blood and urine anaylsis done this week. The end of this month brings excitement with our first sonogram and some worry with knowing I will have to tell my boss the news, which he won `t take too well. BUt What can you do!I hope everyone is staying positive and feeling good! more to come.....

Your weekend sounds very enjoyable!!! And you're right about being sober in a group of drinkers, after about 2-3 hours (when everyone's had a few), it's really weird! Mother's Day was awesome! Lindsey got me a pool float, in red because she knows it's my favorite color and Sarah bought me the cutest maternity outfit - blue jean shorts with a white/red top! All with a little help from Dad, of course. I got cards and pictures and poems (which you know as Moms we'll keep forever!) and after Mass we went out to an awesome brunch - lobster tails, caprese salad, dessert - all my favorites!!! Did Eric do anything special for you?
Oh, and my little guy has been kicking up a storm since Saturday night. Sarah actually got to feel him kick for the first time last night. He is laying so low, that he kicks toward the bottom right side. He did it once and I grabbed her hand and then he did it again - boy did her eyes go wide! The last time she felt that, she was only 2 when I was pregnant with her little sister and she wouldn't remember.
I can't wait until you get a few more weeks along - this is when it starts to really get more enjoyable! Have a great day and talk to you soon! Jessica

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! Don't want you to worry - finally felt my little bugger move yesterday afternoon. Maybe because I just didn't eat very well or very much on Friday, or maybe he's changed positions - don't know. Had a huge roast beef panini, bbq chips and banana for lunch yesterday and about an hour later, was in the car and definitely felt him getting his lunch. What a relief!!! Hard to believe I'm the same person back in late February/March who wasn't thrilled about having another baby. Now I just want him to be ok.

Hope you have a fantastic day!!!!!!

OK, tell me I'm being irrational. My daughter was having a playdate yesterday and touched my stomach and the weirdest thing was that all of a sudden, I felt like something was wrong. No reason to feel that, no pain or anything medical, but just this foreboding feeling. I've been trying to lay still to feel the baby, but nothing. I didn't even want to come on-line and check out all the new info. for week 19. Please tell me that I'm being paranoid. It's not like me to imagine something wrong out of the blue.


sailorsbabybump - Thursday, 8 May
Awwww that is a cute baby in there! :D Maybe next time! I feel SOOO much better (although I flew all day today so I'm feeling a bit out of sorts). I have gotten HUGE! I look about 5 months along already.

Ok, don't be looking for a belly pic anytime soon - do you remember the drama of getting my family pics up?!!! I know I should try though - maybe this weekend.
You are in what I think is the worst part of pregnancy. It's too early to get really excited, your not showing yet, no appointments and the hormones are still off kilter. And I'm with you calling it IT - it just doesn't make it seem real. I promise if you can just get through the next 4-5 weeks, it gets so much better. Everything starts moving faster and then you'll look pregnant and you'll start to feel the baby and then it's all worth it - hang in there!

Well, guess what else got added to our plate this week? Sarah was playing a make-up soccer game (a lot of games were rained out in March and early April) on Monday night and fell hard. AND broke her wrist! We spent a few hours at urgent care and have to go to the Orthopedic Surgeon this afternoon for a permanent cast. Of course she'll need a waterproof cast (that's just cruel to send a kid into summer without one!) and insurance doesn't cover that (they don't cover much anymore) so that's another bill. I'll be so glad when school is over in 3 weeks and we all get a break!!!!


kismet - Wednesday, 7 May
The due date is calculated from your last menstrual period, not ovulation date as this is different in everybody. I wouldn't focus too much on the expected due date... your baby will tell you when he/she is ready to be born!


Kandace - Wednesday, 7 May
Yes this is my first baby so everything is so new. All these changes are a little overwhelming (ha ha). I am tired and feeling lazy too. I feel like I have been like that for the past 3 months. Today I felt pretty good except for first thing this morning. I am hoping I'm past the worst of it because I don't know how much more morning sickness I can take. How are you feeling? I think your girls will be more excited once the baby arrives.


Kandace - Tuesday, 6 May
Yes we are going to find out if it's a boy or girl around 18 weeks if the little one cooperates. I am so excited to find out. How about you? Are you girls excited about the new addition?


blessedmom2b - Monday, 5 May
yes, it's unbelievable that people can get in that field and not know that they need to have a pleasant and excited bedside manner. It made me feel like just a number and so I knew from that it was just a money making scheme. lol she should def get a paper work job and not be doing baby ultrasounds! I agree! congrats on your baby on the way!:)


Bunnyintheoven - Sunday, 4 May
 Oh how cute!!! I'v finaly added mine. xxxx


bunnyintheoven - Sunday, 4 May
Hi sweetie, i'm realy glad your NT went well. Im sorry your tech didnt give you an idea at least. At my NT babys heart rate was 144 bpm. You have to let me know if you post your pics i'd love to see them!!!! I'm good sweetie, had a vain moment yesterday, had a little cry coz i'm looking a little well very sickley. Talk soon babes. XXXXXX

I can't believe you are almost to your 2nd trimester!!! Does it feel like it's going more quickly now? I think it helps when you get past the most scary/uncertain time when you're always wondering if the baby is going to be ok. Not that that changes a lot past the 1st trimester, but at least your out of the woods as far as highest chances of miscarriage.
Your boss does sound jerkish to say the least - some people are just so insensitive! I'm glad he was nicer to you the next day and hopefully will continue. You have got to feel relieved though that now you don't have to hide it and constantly wonder if anyone has noticed.
My husband and girls are on their big YMCA Daddy/Daughter camping trip this weekend. It would have been my girls drunken beach weekend in Hilton Head, but when I found out I was pregnant, just had to cancel. It would be no fun being with everyone when they start with bloody marys by noon and party late and all I can do is watch. That really sucks! I'm hoping by next year to be able to go again. Starting to feel the baby a little more frequently but it's still so small, you end up wondering afterwards if that was really the baby or just more gas (which I seem to be full of these days!)!
How was your girls first formal dance? I can't wait to do that kind of shopping - how exciting!!!
Have a great weekend and talk to you soon!


Kandace - Saturday, 3 May
Ya, I hear you with the weight. I'm about the same and I can't help but be a little worried. The doctor told me my weight was good and not to worry about it. Hmm. I guess I have to trust the dr. I guess when it comes down to it...if our little one's are healthy then that is all that matters and we can lose the weight after we give birth. I hope your doing well.


Kandace - Saturday, 3 May
 Aww, it does look like a baby. What a adorable profile. Congratulations! I know how excited you must be. It's a great feeling to see what is growing inside of you and making your body change so much. Ha ha. I know thats how I felt.


shocked - Thursday, 1 May
Long time no talk! Isn't it funny how in the very beginning, we were on this website like every hour and now that our pregnancies are a little further along and life's busy events take over, I'm only on every few days for long enough to write to anyone! Girls night out was to see Bon Jovi last night - who is still so incredibly hot. We had great seats and a really good time. Daughtry (Chris Daughtry from American Idol) warmed up for him and he was awesome! I really enjoyed him too. Is your husband a singer or musician or both? What's his job in the band? What type of music do they perform?
When the concert first started last night and the bass was so loud you can feel it going through you, I felt several little taps way down low where the baby is. I think he wondered what in the hell was going on!! I can't wait to feel him everyday. I'm definitely getting bigger too, very few non-maternity clothes I can wear and the maternity is just was too comfortable. I'll be full time by next week at this rate. Did you tell the boss yet? I can't imagine trying to hide that for so long - I'm always pretty much an open book! How are your feeling?


soon2be momma d - Wednesday, 30 April
Hi there! You need to report your boss to his supervisor! His reaction was extremely unprofessional and not acceptable. If those are his feelings, fine - he can mutter all he wants AFTER you have left the room! So what if he gets more upset that you reported him - you may get an apology and a better behaved boss, or worst case - you may feel the need to find a new job. Either way, you need to be supported and unfortunately most of your time is at work - you do not need to be in a stressful and negative environment! Report him!


bunnyintheoven - Tuesday, 29 April
I'm sorry he was mean to you, but he's a jerk & yopur a much loved mummy so who's the loser..... at 13 weeks they can only look at markers, but it's still nice to have an idea.... Speak to you on friday. Oh & if your boss gives you any s**t tell him i'll be having words!!! *********


bunnyintheoven - Tuesday, 29 April

He has a point but who cares about all the bad things lalalalalal i cant here them!!!! How are you. Have you had a chat with your boss? ******************


bunnyintheoven - Monday, 28 April
Had my NT scan today. All very good 1 in 5961 chance of downs. She, yes i said she (80%) is 72.3 mm head to rump with a 144 bpm . Realy cant take the smile off my face!!! Have a 3d pic as well *********


Kandace - Monday, 28 April
I'm glad your feeling better overall. I think mine is slowly improving but the fatique is still here which is hard on me. I'm a really independant person so having my husband wait on me is a whole new thing. It is nice and really sweet but neither one of us are used to me not being able to do Everything for myself . It's all a learning experience that is for sure. Are you starting to show yet? I've got a belly bulge and my boobs are getting a little ridiculous (ha ha). I figure I have a long way to go so I better get used to it. Let me know how your appt goes on Friday. Yeah...we both have appointments this week.


shocked - Friday, 25 April
HEY!!!!! You're not going to believe it - it's a BOY!!!!!!! It was amazing. The poor sonographer could not get a good picture - she spent almost 20 minutes with us which was so cool - the girls got to see everything and hear his heartbeat. The little bugger was laying on his stomach with his legs crossed and would not move. She had me get off the table twice to move around and touch my toes. Finally she called it and she said she was positive - we've got good pictures, even a few in 3-d which I did not expect. It was so worth it - if they have that type of thing in Buffalo, you've got to do it!!!

My husband is just walking around with this grin on his face - he's just in shock. He keeps saying "I'll never doubt God again". Now the girls have a totally different reaction - Sarah's all like "Mom, I told you all along it was a boy, I just felt it, I just knew it!". Lindsey keeps saying "I'm Mad". I keep reminding her how much I love her uncles (I only have brothers) so I'm hoping it will sink in by the time the baby gets here. Not to mention, I think it will be easier for her to remain Mama's girl, even if she's not the baby anymore.

I can't wait for you to find out too! Are you telling your boss today?
