OOPS!

I may have been a little to quick to write my last post saying this month was another failure. We ARE pregnant!!! I'm very, very nervous but really hoping everything turns out well. It has been almost 2 years since our last pregnancy and I would really like this one to stick so we don't have to wait another 2 years. I really wasn't expecting to get pregnant this month and didn't even rush to take a test yesterday(Sunday) when I should have started a new cycle. I also left the store today without purchasing any pregancy tests, but realized when I got out to the car that I forgot deodarant for Will and then decided to make the test purchase since the deodarant and the test were in close proximaty to one another and I happened to have a coupon for the tests so I figured what the heck, I'll just buy them.

As soon as I read "pregnant" on the display I showed Will and then called my midwife to request labwork. Jace and I hustled over to the lab to have my progesterone level and HCG level tested. I won't know a whole lot until Thursday when I can do another HCG check and compare to the first number and hope for a substantial increase to show a viable pregnancy.

Of course I'm over analyzing every change I feel and making bad associations with our past miscarriages. I really hope Thursday will tell us some great news so I can relax a tiny bit. I'm not out of the woods until the first trimester is over which won't be until mid April. Nothing is official, but we are definitely hoping this is our chance to welcome another child into our hearts.
