For my husband's birthday in June 2008, I gave him the birth control packs I had left with a note to throw them away! He was thrilled, as he has been waiting for me to be ready to start a family for a few years.

Our journey to parenthood began in July 2008. I had one regular cycle and then we got our first BFP! I miscarried in October 2008. We grieved and moved forward and got our second BFP in April 2009, this pregnancy also resulted in a miscarriage.

So here we are, almost a year later and still trying. I am optimistic that I will be a Mommy and love the support and positivity of my wonderful I-am-pregnant friends. It's so nice to have the support of others who cannot wait to pee-on-a-stick and face the same rollercoasters of emotions that this journey towards motherhood presents all of us with.

UPDATE: GOT A BFP ON JULY 21, 2009. Looking forward to meeting my baby in early April.

The Dr just called with my test results. My beta is 4,413, and my progesterone is 10. He said both are normal. However my progesterone is on the low side of normal. The normal range is between 9-26 at 5 weeks pregnant, but some people have much higher. He told me that I could go ahead and start using 3 suppstories a day, to help boost it more, until the placenta takes over at 12 weeks or so. So fingers crossed!

Hi everyone,
I want to say thank you so much to all of you that commented on my blog and... we have a heartbeat
I called the EPU this morning and they said to come straight in. The u/s tech saw the hb straight away and as soon as she saw it she turned the screen round so I could see it too. She has me dated at 5+4 which sounds about right to me.
I am so relieved but I am also aware that it is early days.

Ladies thank you all for your comments, info and reassurance about the heart palpitations. I had no idea how common it is during pregnancy. It is nice to know I am not alone and my heart isn't going to jump out of my chest! It sure feels like it at times. I will be sure to take my iron as many of you said this is a sign of being low on iron, which I was at my last apt. I will also mention it to the doctor at my next visit but feel so much better knowing it is pretty common and will go away soon! Again....thank you!

Girls, I went back to the Dr today, and he did a ultrasound. We seen our babies sac, and the baby starting to form. Right now it just a little white speck inside the sac. I am just happy to know the little one is attached in the right place, and things are progressing as they should. I am going to put the ultrasound pictures up in a minute. YAY!

Another strange symptom-The last couple days I have felt my heartbeat really fast, usually while I am laying in bed or sitting on the sofa. It is really fast, makes me short of breath, kinda dizzy and just overall a weird feeling. It last about 5 seconds and may repeat 10 seconds later or an hour later. It is very inconsistent. I know the heart works harder during pregnancy b/c of the increase blood flow, but has anyone else experienced this? It is really a strange feeling!

Well ladies I'm 80% sure that I felt the baby kick for the first time yesterday... I don't really know what it's supposed to feel like so I can't say 100% sure; but there was a definite little 'thump' just after lunch and twice more last night before bed. To be honest I thought it would be much longer before I felt anything since I'm a plus size mommy-to-be... but I'm fairly confident that's what it was! It was great!!!
