Oh baby!!!!!

I thought I would write about our little bun in the oven :).......

Ty and I decided to start trying to get pregnant in October of 2009. After about six months, I started getting really anxious about it and all the emotions began. At times I was sad, sometimes I'd be mad. I just kept thinking there are so many people in the world that don't want babies that are getting pregnant and there are so many people in the world that would be great parents and I don't understand why they can't have babies. Obviously, at the time, I couldn't just accept that it wasn't the right time for us to have a baby yet and when Heavenly Father felt we were ready, he would bless us with a baby.



In April of 2011, my doctor decided to run some tests and determined that along with not having a regular cycle (sorry if TMI), I was not ovulating either. So she prescribed me Provera and Clomid. She said that if I wasn't pregnant afer 6 months, that she would have to send me to a fertility clinic and I could explore some other options. The first month of taking Provera and Clomid was quite the roller coaster!! My poor husband!!! I think (or hope) I wasn't mean....but I sure was emotional! I swear I developed a severe separation anxiety and I was ALWAYS worried. Those of you that know me, know I'm constantly worrying anyway. I would cry all the time!!! Ty had to go out of town for I think it was just a night or two and my poor mom and sister-in law, Amanda! They had to occupy every waking moment I had away from him!



May came, negative pregnancy test. June came, negative pregnancy test. I had seen dozens of negative pregnancy tests by this point! July 25th came and it was the day I was supposed to call my doctor and get my next months dose of drugs if I wasn't pregnant. I was just sure I wasn't pregnant because I didn't feel any different and my ovulation tests that month were all negative. But I figured I better just take the test anyway so I can call the doctor. I took the test, set it on the counter and went about washing my hands. As I went to walk out of the bathroom, I glanced at the test and saw a SECOND LINE appearing......WHAT THE HECK?! Obviously I've NEVER seen a second line!!



Ty had walked out the door just 5 minutes ago for work...so I'm sure he was thinking I was a weirdo when I called him. I think this is what I said..."BABE!!! I just took a pregnancy test and there are two lines!!!!!!! He said "YOU'RE PREGNANT?!" I said "I don't know! I think so! I've never seen two lines! I think that's what it means!!!" Ty said "We're having a baby!!" I immediately took another one and it also had two lines! I think I then called my sister in law, Amanda and she screamed! Then I called my mom and then my best friend Bridget. I just couldn't believe I could possibly be pregnant! So of course I had to take a total of 4 tests just to make sure! Well, the rest is history :)


I'm 22 weeks pregnant and my due date is April 2nd! I'm so so so grateful that Heavenly Father has given us the opportunity to be parents and I can already feel her sweet spirit and I love her so much. It just makes me cry when I think about being a mommy and holding our sweet little angel in my arms. The pregnancy is going well and mommy and baby are healthy!!
