Ive just found out Im pregnant...with #5(well #6 if you include the baby I lost)
Im only 4 weeks and 1 day. The lines on the tests are still faint but are definately there!! I felt a bit bad though...my hubby found out his cousin passed away yesterday at 7am and I did the test at 9.30am...so it was kinda not the best time to have told him. He was also starting to drift off to sleep as he was doing night shift too. He was ok...bit distant but assured me he was excited. We did plan it...only started on the 7th August...so Im highly fertile!! I am scared and excited all at the same time. I know I can cope with another little ratbag but Im scared about something going wrong. My last birth was a bit scary so fingers crossed this one will be better...and scared of the risk of miscarriage too.
Exciting aswell is the fact that my sister(who Im extremely close to) is currently 11 weeks pregnant too. Im going to be her doula too. She asked me today if I would still be ok to be her doula...hell yeah...I wouldnt miss it for the world. I told her even if I was 9 months preggers I would still be able to support her. I would just need to sit down a bit more.
But,...yay,...Im PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks girls...Im stoked!! I went to the drs today and she gave me a preg test and told me to do it in another 8 days when Im 10 days over my missed period. I couldnt wait that long and did it today...
I feel alot better knowing that test is positive!! My hubby also came home from working away today and he just hugged and kissed me. He is so excited which is great. My kids are even hugging and kissing my belly and talking to the baby.
Wow congratulations that is fantastic news! I always love to hear stories of women having loads of children. Im still in the two minds whether I want to go for number 5. Scout is only just 6 months so we thought about starting TTC after xmas. It just seems like such a big call going from 4 to 5. We have the 7 seater already so thats not an issue its just whether I want to go through it all again. I just want the baby not the pregnancy!
I do think its a big step going from 4 to 5 children but I dont think its much different than going from 2 to 3. Goodluck if you do decide to have #5.
Well just a little bit of an update....Im 9 weeks and 1 day. I had a scan at 6 weeks...they struggled to see anything but after a vaginal scan they saw the little blob and a heartbeat. I had my blood tests which came back ok except for th fact that Ive got low immunity to Rubella(so have to stay away from 'dirty little children with rashes' as the dr put it). Ive got to have another blood test on a week and the 12 week scan is booked in for 15th Oct. I have had a bit of morning sickness but not too bad. I am also showing a little bit too...looks like Im more fat than anything. Oh well!!
