Hi, I'm Chrissy and I'm 8 weeks pregnant with my 2nd. I'm 36, will be 37 in November. We tried for over 7 years after our first baby to give her a sibling and struggled with infertility. We went thru all the testing and when there was no reason found for our infertility decided to stop trying.
About 10 days ago I tested after having multiple symptoms and got a BFP.
To say I was shocked is understatement! I'm still adjusting but things are finally sinking in. I had my first dr appt last week and everything was confirmed and we also were able to have an ultrasound. I have my next appt in 4 weeks with another ultrasound and the chromosomal blood test.

I thought it would be amusing to see how many planned to get pregnant and how many like me found out and were surprised. I was sick back in the end of oct. so the first of nov. I decided I must have a sinus infection and instead of getting better it was getting worse. I made an appointment with my doctor. I'm not real good about seeing my doctor regularly and I'm almost 40 so while I was there he ran some blood and had me give a urine sample. Why he did a pregnancy test is beyond me but he chose to and as I sat reading a mag. He came in with a big smile. He handed me a script paper and told me congratulations. I said for what a sinus infection? He laughed as I looked down at the script which read Diane is pregnant. I didn't believe him and told him he was wrong. He said he ordered a pregnancy test with my blood work but he was sure and than he said its a girl. I was in shock. He handed me my Script for the sinus infection and I left still in shock. I went to the pharmacy and handed them the wrong script paper and thank goodness they all know me really well because they got a good laugh and I wasn't to embarrassed. Now my husband finding out was a little more tame. He didn't react till the ultra sound. I was 16 weeks by then. Now it's almost over and we have a whole new adventure ahead.

I just got my bfp on Wednesday (yay!). I just had my first last Feb., so my dd won't be quite 2 yet when this one gets here. I'll be 39 when I deliver - I look forward to getting to know the ladies here and maybe touch base with a few who were here last time. Good luck, everyone!
