My period has been a little irregular since I am breastfeeding. So when I didn't start I was like oh whatever I will within the next week or two, but I didn't. I had been feeling more tired, but I didn't think anything of it. My kids will usually take their nap at noon and during that time I will clean the house or watch T.V. or just have me time. Lately during their nap I will nap with them and at the time I was like what is wrong with me!? I decided to take a pregnancy test for the heck of it because I had a couple leftover from when I got pregnant with Mattix. I couldn't believe it when the test had a plus sign!! I thought for sure it had to be wrong so I went to the store the next day and bought two more, haha. I came home and they were all positive! How did I get pregnant on the pill? I don't know. I must be the one of the 1% it doesn't work for, because this is the second time this has happened! I was super consistent in taking it. The same time every day. Plus I am nursing, so I am supposed to have extra protection, ha! So much for that! I was pretty shocked when the test was positive. So I found out I was pregnant a couple of days before I told Greg. I wrapped the test up in a box with a newborn diaper. One day after dinner I told him I got a late Mother's day gift and asked if he wanted to see it. He did and he asked who it was from. I told him it was from my friend. He asked who and I didn't know what to say so I just said it was from my friend Donna. He opened it and was like, "She sent you a diaper??!". I told him to keep looking and he say the test. He said, " She sent you a pregnancy test? Huh? WAIT! You're pregnant?". I told him yes and he turned really pale and kept asking why Donna sent me a pregnancy test. I told him that she didn't and it was just a surprise and he was still confused and in shock for a while. Later that night he told me the pregnancy test was probably a false positive and we shouldn't have just had sex because I could've not been pregnant but I am for sure going to get pregnant now LOL. I was like..Greg, I took five tests and they were all positive and not all the same brand. I am definitely pregnant! We are more excited now ;) It is kinda crazy to think we will have three kids in 2.5 years. I love being a mom and I am sure it will be fine haha. My two arms are good for two kids, so it will be interesting with three kids. We will soon see!
Yes, my wife was told that it would be hard for her to get pregnant and I was told that my abilities would be lessened due to a surgery in my teens, but seems the odds are ever in our favor.
ReplyDeleteWe are excited for you guys! That's so fun. If you ever want to try a different type of birth control, the IUD rocks!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking a vasectomy was the way to go, but knowing our luck we would still get pregnant. I think the IUD is one of the few we have not tried.
