We just found out by home pregnancy test on 6/22 and confirmed via ultrasound at the Dr's office on 6/25 (when I was told I was already 10 weeks).
I turned 12 weeks yesterday.
12 WEEKS!!!
100% unplanned.
No fertility treatments. At. All.
Like, we just had the conversation we would wait until Clara turned 2-2.5 yrs old before pursing an IVF transfer again. And now we will have two kids under age two.

We. Are. Shocked.
(Baby at 10 weeks)
Because remember. . . I'm not supposed to be able to get pregnant.
Not on my own.
Because I don't ovulate.
But apparently I did. Once.
And got pregnant the very. first. time.
(Baby at 12 weeks)
To say we are just a little excited is an understatement.
Feeling SO blessed.
And we believe, 100%, without a doubt, that this little miracle is a precious gift from God himself. Words simply cannot describe the joy and gratitude we feel.
And here's some of the tests I took, because I was convinced I was reading them wrong, the second line was too faint etc. (I never had to use a home test with Clara).
(These are from the Dollar Store so when I saw two lines I assumed they must be wrong because, hello, I bought them at the DOLLAR STORE.)

(Then I took two of these, because clearly the one above reads negative)
So there you have it. . . our little miracle in the works.
Thanks for your prayers & support! So excited to share the fun news with you all!
Yay!!!! So excited for you guys and can't wait to find out if Clara will have a baby brother or a baby sister! :)
ReplyDeletecongratulations sweet friend! I'm so excited for you and for this new little miracle growing inside of you <3
ReplyDeleteLOL i just love this story 1,000 times over. What a wonderful sense of humor God has! I love to hear of His miracles! They happen every single day!
ReplyDeleteSo excited for y'all! God is so amazing.
ReplyDeleteHilarious that you took so many tests. I had to take a digital test that literally read "pregnant" with Olivia because Andrew didn't see the two lines on the normal tests.
Ha well i totally get where Andrew was coming from. I FOR REAL thought I was reading the tests wrong and it must be a fluke!
