NO I’M NOT PREGNANT WITH MULTIPLES (I’M NOT PREGNANT AT ALL)….
JUST THOUGHT THIS WAS FUNNY AND FIT THE STORY I AM ABOUT TO TELL!
So I’m not sure if you remember me telling the story about my cycle not being regular which is why I was SO surprised when I got pregnant with Emma. Now I am fully aware of how to make a baby and how the cycle plays a role in that, however, since my cycle has never been regular the last thing I thought was that I was pregnant! So fast forward to NOW….
Darrick and I have been talking about Baby #2…well he is hoping for Baby #2, #3 and #4 at once…but I am more at baby #2 (only)!! Yep…I know what you are thinking he’s crazy…and I completely agree!!
Well anyways I got a new doctor in the middle of my pregnancy, so last month was our first time meeting for a regular appointment since the follow-up after Emma. Let me say I TOTALLY love my Gynecologist!!! She is so easy to talk to…so I was explaining to her that I haven’t had a cycle in 2 months, but I was almost 95% sure I wasn’t pregnant because I had taken home test (a few of them…don’t want any surprises). So she said she would do some blood work and run some test because it weird that I just don’t ovulate on a regular schedule. She gave me some medicine (Progesterone) to take for a couple of days to get me to ovulate…and she also gave me more Birth Control to help regulate my system. But it came with the disclaimer that if I am not pregnant in the next 6 months, she is going to take me off BC and put me on another kind of medicine to regulate me….BUT it increases my chances of multiples in my next pregnancy! WTH…I started smiling because I could already see the smile on Darrick’s face before I told him any of this…I KNEW he would be excited!!! But I’m not…going from 1 to 4 children is not the business! HA!
Although I believe I am ready to have baby #2…I still get nervous just thinking about it! I mean I know everything happens in God’s timing so no matter how much we plan for it, it wont happen until God feels it is time for us to have another one. Sometimes I think what if baby #2 has a cleft lip and palate also (chances aren’t high but I guess it is normal for me to have that fear), I also get sad thinking Emma wont be an only child anymore (I get a little sad thinking about it)…I could go on and on but you get what I am saying…I’m a little scared!
Are you prepping for a baby?
Have you dealt with not ovulating regularly…is it a pain to get pregnant or does the medicine usually work?
Is there anything I can do to help the process?
Do you Share some of these same thoughts?
Is having baby #2 a breeze because you have already had a baby or do you get scared just like when you had your first baby?
