Gotta love those abbrevs! I'm going to do my best to hold out until 10 DPO (4-25-12) to test. Wishful thinking I know. 1 DPO today!

I had a really bad experience with my second one. Had the worst spinal headache in the world. I had to get a bloodpatch (another shot in the spine)a few days after delivery. It was a nightmare. The first one ws smooth as silk. Natural childbirth is not for me though. With the curve in my spine my pelvis is tilted. My last daughter was born hand first with her face up. It was a more peaceful experience the first time with the functional epidural.

my scoliosis has caused my spine to curve so far forward that it is literally a half inch under my navel... this has affected the position of my pelvis so much that the "top" of my hips nearly touch the front of my thighs... have been doing simple yoga for 11 months, as per the recommendation of my orthopedic specialist, to try to strengthen the muscles along my spine and to stretch my hamstrings, but progress is slow... if I accidentally push myself too hard the muscles in both my arms and legs will lock up for 1-4 days making movement both very painful and frustrating... as far as the zyrtec goes, dr had me start taking it daily to control my asthma, chronic sinus infections, and allergies to most fruits and veggies... if i stop taking it for just a few days i get a sinus infection and start having frequent asthma attacks... in my research i have found reports that breathing problems can cause issues with maintaining a pregnancy and have found conflicting reports about whether or not inhalers are safe for pregnancy... have tried to control allergy symptoms/ asthma/ and sinus infections with benadryl, claritin, allegra, and flonase, but not with as much success as zyrtec... i know i'm probably seriously over-analyzing everything these days, but i have a hard time ignoring these concerns when we've been TTC for almost for years... hope i'm not driving you guys nuts already, LOL...

That is so much to wrap your head around, and I'm sure it is equally hard to deal with too. There are plenty of women getting pg accidentally with alot of severe medical problems that deliver healthy babies. Gotta look at the positives.
So the next thing a look for is implantation signs right?
