tell your pregnancy story!!

Well to start off. My name is leeanna,  I'm 25. You ladies where so helpful in my last pregnancy (2014) I wanted to come back again. A lot of help on here with out being judged,  well some anyway..  but any who about my story!! I have 2 children,  girl (age 6) and a boy (age 2) and a girl on the way in November.  Me and my husband met when I was 17. (7 1/2 years now) and he is just a awesome hard working man, goofy at times but he's like the male version of me,  with no mistake he's very manly and I'm not Lol.   Later last Year 2015, I started getting,  well the baby blues. You know seeing woman pregnant at the store, baby items just popping outta no where, and then my sister got pregnant.  It snapped me right out of wanting a third child.  Then... it hit again. And again.  Seems like evertime my period ended, I went through this rush of wanting a child.  Then it would be gone. I went through this for about 10-12 months. Then my sister had her baby!!  Ohhh it was awesome!!  Then me wanting a baby just went away... well the want anyway.  Two 1 week my sister postpardom,  I had this feeling,  along with no period for two days. I took a test. In all honesty I was expecting a big fat not pregnant printed on the test. Nope. A big fat pregnant popped up. I was in shock a little.  Still sitting on the toilet,  staring down at this test. There was no surprise,  I walked out of the bathroom.  And just sat this wrapped up in toilet paper object on my husbands computer desk. And simply said yup.  I didn't know what else to say? Lol happy,  disappointed,  scared worried about a 3rd chilD! I walked out of the room, into my living room where my sister was sitting,  getting ready to leave. She said negative?  I said nope.  and it kinda ended there. Once she left. As I'm still in shock,  my husband came in the living room still holding this gross test. (pee ewww) sat beside me and said, its all going to be fine, i started crying thinking every pissible wrong thing. He held me and said if its a boy we should name him ( and said some really dumb name , that i dont even think is a word lol, we both laughed. And here we are baby # three due in the bext three months!! We are ready! I would love to read your pregnancy story! Please post!!!!! Thanxx for reading!!

I'm Hannah, I'm also 25. Pregnant with my second! My first is the sweetest little lady who turns one this week!
The women of my family have always struggled with having children. Most only managed to have one or two. My grandmother was told her pain was nothing for years, until she passed out at work because her ovaries exploded. When I was a teenager I was in horrible pain one day while helping out a friend. Ended up having emergency surgery to remove my right ovary and appendix. For years I prayed that I could be a mother, and last year I finally got my wish! My husband was a champ through the whole thing! I really struggled and was bed ridden most of the time. Had a hard 14 hours of labor before an emergency c-section. Fast forward to this past June. My milk supply stopped cold turkey! Super confused I figured I'd pee on a stick to rule that out. SURPRISE!!! Pregnant! Now we are waiting nervously for this one to arrive on February 25 when I have my planned c-section. Can't wait for October so we can know what we are having!! I'm just so thankful to God that we have this second blessing! Pretty sure I cried tears of joy for a solid week.

Hi ladies, my name is Nicole I'm 23 and my husband and I got married in 2014. He's US  military and I'm from the Caribbean but we have known each other all our lives. We're currently stationed in Japan finally since we were apart for a year he surprised me with a ticket to Japan on our one year anniversary. We instantly started trying for our first child because of my health history. I found out I was pregnant on my birthday which was also his birthday so it was the most amazing present we could have received. I'm 36 weeks at the moment with our daughter and we're both super excited!

My name is Yvonne... Im 23 pregnant with my first child and so nervous and excited and thrilled at the same time. Well for months iv asked my boyfriend how he would feel about having a baby and I always got a "I'm not ready lemme marry you first" (His a Pastor's child by the way) than we went on a beautiful weekend away to mpumalanga in June and it made us forget all about contraception lol... We found out about our lol one a few weeks after missing  my period and he was so scared at first than he demanded to know every stage every feeling every appointment and he I so involved to a point where when I feel any pain I call him and he speaks to the baby and the cramps goes away (I'm only 3months in and all this literally happens) I'm so glad he has opened up to this pregnancy and he is able to bond with the baby long before time... I'm so blessed wouldn't trade this journey for anything.

Isn't that so weird??  With all three of my pregnancys if I was in any pain, cramping,  baby kicking,  feeling sick, all my husband had to do was put his hand on my belly and I would be fine!   3 months is a little to early for them to war ourmt side the womb.  But later on it's very good for dad to bond with baby in that way. Also, once your 25+ weeks your hubby can put his ear on your belly and actually hear babies heart beat for him self! My husband gets all happy and smiles like a little boy.

Hi my name is elise. Im 32 and this is my first pregnancy. Married for 8 years, without trying to conceived trough medication after diagnosed with pcos.
The baby i will be having is considered as 'miracle', ive been active in gym, losed weight, and planned for a better life, new career, bought new clothes for my new career. And suddenly, after 3 weeks of period delay, i did a pregnancy test, n it was positive...
All i can say is thank you God for this child, theres reason for my 1 year hardwork trying to organise my life, im not happily married, and this child is presence now. I wish, this may bring a better improvements in my life n marriage affairs.
Right now, i spend most of my time reading about how to take care of myself during confinement, mentally and physically. My family is not supportive.im all alone with my baby in terms of emotion during this pregnancy.

The way I see it, this is YOUR life, no one can feel your pain, nor your happiness.  So live the life you choose to live.  The support from family + friends helps a lot, just do for you + baby and that is all that matters,  which I see your doing.  Your making the best of life making it better for your self, and now baby! And no marriage is perfect,  your 8 years, and I'm 7 1/2 so we are way pasymt the cupcake stage. Its going to take a lot of work, communication and understanding.  But what ever is in the dark always comes to light. & everything that is ment to happen,  will happen in it's due time. You seem like a very strong, devoted woman. & I hope and pray your pregnancy + birth is healthy.  And this app is amazing when it comes to support.  Vent, ask questions,  chat? What ever your needs are we are all here!! And you just might help someone else as well!

I am 34 years old. I have a son who is almost 16 years old, a 2 year old and due for a c-section in October at 36 weeks. My 2 year old son took 10 months of trying. I had a c-section at 36 weeks and he was in the NICU for 6 days. A little over a year ago I suffered 2 miscarriages. We gave up trying and figured we were blessed enough. Every time I get pregnant I develop blood clots. One night I had to be rushed to ER with bad chest pain. They ran a bunch of tests and sent me on my way. 2 days later in different ER with a blood clot in my lungs. The next day I said what the heck and took a test thinking it would be negative. It came out positive and my husband said he knew it. We are so happy to be pregnant again and we are not wanting to know the sex of the baby. However,  I have to say this pregnancy has been by far the hardest. I developed carpal tunel syndrome in forst trimester bad and need surgent but am holding off. Had to be on bed rest first trimester, which is hard with a toddler. Second trimester I developed gallbladder disease really bad and am waiting for surgery 4 weeks after baby. The GI doctor said he has never seen a worse case of gallbladder disease. Now to make matters worse in 3 trimester I developed gestational diabetes.  Yet, still staying positive. I am glad I only have 7 weeks left. This diets they have me on is horrible. I lost 10 pounds and baby isn't gaining or growing enough.

My name is Casey. My beautiful daughter will be 2 in October and were expecting her little brother any day now. We tried for over a year to get pregnant the first time so we were a little suprised how quick we got prego the second time lol but definitely are done having babies after this one. Probably going to have my husband get a vasectomy instead of getting my tubes tied so I don't have to be on birth control the rest of my life. Can't wait though to have my baby boy!!! So excited!! Congrarts to all the new mommies :)
