Dare to be optimistic
Happy Thanksgiving y all,
Yes I know a day in advance but I am so happy today. 1st of all my baby turned 1y today. I was in tears...of joy , pride and everything in between. I cannot believe that I now have a toddler. To conceive was so hard, 4y of ttc and we tried almost everything but ivf. I found out i was pregnant when I had a cold and i was living 2hrs away from my DH. We were seeing each other on weekends and i was also taking antibiotics due to having had appendicitis 2months and some prior to pregnancy. So yes it is possible to get pregnant while taking antibiotics but I stopped as soon as I knew. My 1st trimester was hard and the scale went backwards. I was loosing weight and so afraid of loosing my baby. I gained a total of 20 pounds the whole pregnancy and more than half of it was in the 3rd trimester. My baby s birth was the best day of my life even though I was in the worst of pain. When he came out , it took him few seconds to cry and when he did it , I could breathe finally. My labor was about 26hrs but the delivery was about 20minutes. And now I have a little man. Am I really ready to do it all again? Absolutely....
Well i told y all last time that I saw a vvvvvf line on a FRER i did not come around to test again especially since I had no symptoms and dealing with a cold. Well tonight i tested again with my easy@home HCG and I m seeing a vvvvvf line. Now I tested at 7pm after having drinking lots of fluids but I cannot help but dare to be optimistic. I do not know if it is wishful thinking or what but maybe, just maybe? Also my LH looks like it is about to become positive and I have started having symptoms which can be early pregnancy symptoms or pms: more peeing, painful boobs even though im still nursing (well could be due to weaning process too since I slowly started weaning my baby) , cramps , moodiness, tiredness, and backaches. Now i am around cd 27 so if I am pregnant , i could be probably just a week along or max 2 if I ovulated and/or if I ovulated early. I have sent DH to go buy me 2 FRERs . 1 I will test tomorrow morning another one in 2-3days. Fingers crossed guys.

@lalou3tt3 it would be wonderful to be pregnant at the same time! I would very much enjoy that:) thanks! 13 weeks def makes me feel better with my history of loss in pregnancy, but it also makes me nervous because now we get to do the big ultrasound to see if everything is ok next month lol.
