With my first I missed my period and thought it was just delayed since I was under a lot of pressure with school so I thought nothing of it but after a week went by I though why haven't I gotten it. Me and my boyfriend (now husband) were having unprotected sex for about a year and a half so I thought I couldn't get pregnant but when I went to the doctors and found out I was pregnant I freaked out and cried my *** off since I was only 15 at the time. Well they gave me an ultrasound and I thought I'd be maybe 3 weeks along well turns out I was 16 weeks! I was having fake out periods that came and went just like my regular periods. My son is now 4 and a half and the best thing in my life. Me and my husband are having our little girl now I'm 36 weeks pregnant. This timewas planned though. My husband was gonna ddeploy and I decided to take a break from my iud while he was gone and we decided to try. We had about two weeks in between my iud removal and his deployment to start and we were blessed enough to conceive. I got the positive pregnancy test about a weeks after he left! He got his baby girl just like he wanted and I finally got my little lady (: my son is super excited about his sister as well.

I had literally just lost my virginity after moving in with my boyfriend. I supposedly conceived the 2nd time we had sex lmao. Since I had just moved, started exercising, better diet, had sex, etc I didn't know how it would affect my period. I would assume my period was coming. I had a dot of pink twice and think, oh, my period's coming. But it never did. XD I got a slight twinge from implantation at that time too that was new, but I was more concerned about a possible health problem lol. Then when my breasts barely touched the sheet on our bed and reacted like they were on FIRE, I was like, ok, time to test. XD We were so scared it would come up negative lol

When it was time for my cycle to come on and it didn't I took a test a few days after and it came back negative. I figure it was due to stress and would come on any day now. The next month it was our anniversary and we were going to Las Vegas. Still nothing but I made sure to not only bring but also wear something just in case. I mean after all I was cramping and who wants to be sightseeing and need to run back to the room because your "friend" decided to stop by?! We get back home from vacation and still nothing. My husband and I were both looking at each other and knew what the other was thinking. The next day I took a test and I don't think I was done urinating before it showed positive. I showed my husband and we went to the store that same night and got two more. I took one the second we got home and another the next morning; all positive. So here we are expecting our first child this summer!

We were trying for couple years. I went to doctor to get tested for the reason why I can't get pregnant.  My doc did some tests and told me I might have a tumor on the pituitary gland:(. My husband and I went for vacation to Poland.  (I haven't seen my family for 10 years!) When we came back my doctor scheduled me for mri for that tumor I might have.my appointment was on Monday.  I felt weird whole weekend.so I took a test on Sunday. It was a father's day! ! It was positive! That's how we found out!  Today I have 40 days left to see my baby girl.  No tumor!  Lol  My husband said we are not going to Poland any time soon. One baby is enough for now! Lol but guess what this coming July that's were we are planing to go.

I had a weird dream 2 days before AF was due and took a test that I had laying around just cuz the dream stood out to me even though my fiance and I use protection and was on the pill. Came back postive as did the 7 other I took afterwards...... was very spooky and am very shocked still. This happened 6 days ago.

I had been on Nuvaring and when it was time to put it back in I still hadn't gotten my period. I also had heartburn like the whole day and I was getting crampy when me my SO and our daughter walked to the store. The next day I had a doctors appointment for something else, and I brought it up so she had me do a pregnancy test, but we both thought it would be negative and my period was late due to stress. I had just graduated high school and the summer semester had already started so I was pretty stressed out about making sure I got everything turned in on time. As soon as she came in the room she asked me if I was trying to get pregnant and I said no, because I wanted to go to college first. And she said well, it's positive. I remember my heart sank to my stomach and I got really warm. But I'm still in school and I couldn't be happier now. :)

I found out cause one of my sisters joked about one of us getting pregnant. Then she thought she was and had an extra test so I took it for ***** and giggles. Long story short it came back postive so I went to my doctors office the next day.

Well me and my bf had been in denial. My period was always a little off, but when two of my best friends periods came and went, and I still didn't have one. Something seemed off. So I had my mom buy me a pregnancy test & I went to my best friends boyfriends house, someone was in his bathroom so I used his momma's, I peed on the stick and it didn't even take 15 second for the dark dark positive to show up! I walked out and his mom was like yes ? & I just nodded my headed! I was in shock! Went to the doctor and found out I was almost 11 weeks!

I found out because I missed my period, and I sometimes about every 2-3 months I would miss it, so I thought nothing of it... I went to my doctor and asked for a pregnancy test cause I thought I was going to need pills to make me start my period ( remind you this is the first time my husband didnt go with me to an appointment) and she said let me look at your results, ok you don't have a uti and YOUR PREGNANT!!!! I covered my mouth and didnt believe her, I said can you go ask your nurse and make sure they put it in the computer right? She did and came back and told me congrats and hugged me, ( husband and I never got pregnant in the 4 years we were together so I was beginning to think I couldn't) that was the best news of my life :D ♥♥♥♥

Now I'm 25 weeks and 1 day with a healthy baby girl♥
