We're Back!

Drumroll please .-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- We're Pregnant!  Like really and truly pregnant.  I say that only because it's been a struggle to get pregnant and stay pregnant with another baby.  After trying for over a year and a miscarriage back in June, I am absolutely delighted that we are back in the saddle again.

After the heartache of the miscarriage in June (which felt wrong from the start), this pregnancy has been like a beam of light.  I found out the day after my expected period.  I just knew I was pregnant.  Usually I'd wait a few days before testing, just to be sure that I wasn't just late, but like I said, I knew I was pregnant.  So I tested, and got a big, fat, undeniable, postive result!  Immediately the image that came to mind was the Heaven's opening up and God winking at me.  That might sound silly, but I got this overwhelming peace about this baby.  I truly feel this is the child that we are meant to have.  This is the missing person in our family.  

So here I am again, dusting off the old blog.  I mean, I need a place to record all of the thoughts and feeling of this pregnancy.  I still feel like other social media sites are not really appropriate to post all things pregnancy related, and I want to be able to share my joy with those who want to know without infringing on those who are struggling to have a baby (or let's be honest, don't really care about being pregnant).  Being the couple that has been trying to have another child for over a year and going through several miscarriages, we can certainly relate and be sensitive to the feelings of the those that would give anything to pregnant, and don't need reminders that they aren't.

The only other note I want to leave you with right now is, we've already been to the doctor and confirmed the viability, and it's in the uterus (always a concern after our ectopic pregnancy)  And if all goes well then we'll have a cute squishy baby in May 2016.  Whoo hoo!  Be on the lookout for future blogs where I'll discuss some symptoms and thoughts from this time around!  If you're inclined to pray for us, pray for a happy and healthy baby and pregnancy :-D .
