whats your story

Did you plan to get pregnant or not? How long did it take? Married engaged or single?

We planned it. It only took 2 months shockingly. You always hear horror stories that it took forever. I am soon to be engaged. Our original plan was to be married in April but now since we having a baby we are gonna get married before the end of the year and honeymoon next year when I feel comfortable leaving the baby! :)

Both of my pregnancies were planned. Our first took us 3 months and our second took us 8 months of trying. Finally, we are happy to say we are expecting our little sequel in March. My husband and I have been married for 4 years, been together for 7.

It wasn't planned but we weren't  using contraceptives other than my period calendar. We started talking about future plans of when we would start trying, then we found out about 3 weeks later that the deed has already been done. We are happy and engaged to be married soon.

Not planned and we were busy stressing about a move and not to mention our marriage was falling apart big time. We found out after I missed my period. And we decided we needed to work through our issues. We have 2 kids already, 4 and 1, both girls. We have been together 7 years and married 6. We went on a couple of marriage retreats and we are good now. We needed the push to jumpstart our love life again. This baby was the push. Due September 15th, but I know it's coming sooner.

Congrats to all the mommas on here!!

We didn't plan it at all! But we are thrilled it happened. Our four year old is happy. Sometimes the mistakes are the best things to happen to us: -)
