Long time no post!

Boy, 3 months have passed since I last posted. It doesn't seem that long ago, but yet it seems like an eternity.

Big news! After being told by the "Fertility Specialist" that I wasn't going to have success getting pregnant for a while I am. Actually the day my hubby and I were sitting in the doctors office getting the news that it wasn't going to happen right away, I was actually pregnant. Good to know doctors aren't always right. My next best piece of advice is follow your own instincts. Shortly after that appointment I was supposed to start on provera to bring on a period and I wasn't feeling well, so I decided not to take it. Good for me because if I had taken it I would have miscarried and probably never know it.

How did we find out you ask? Funny story. Specialist put me on Atkins diet. Apparently other over weight women in this world can have babies but not me! Cramping which now I know was implantation started. I thought I had an infection from the endometrial biopsy. Called specialist, told nurse, got a call back from nurse saying it was probably a yeast infection and to go to my PCP. Of course I couldn't get an appointment with her so I settled for some other doc. I was put on antibiotics because she said it was an infection from the biopsy. For the next week I proceeded to vomit like I have never vomited before. Switch medicine... no relief. So Saturday, April 7th, I went to the emergency room at NHP very dehydrated and still cramping. Dr. Torres was there. LOVE him. He was my doctor the night I miscarried in 2005 and he was also there the last time I had to go in for dehydration after our garage sale in 2006. He is fabulous. He ran a bunch of tests, one of which was a urine pregnancy test, apparently that was something that seemed to escape all the other doctors I had seen.

The nurse came in and showed him the results. "That is interesting." was his response. She left the room after being told to run a level. He sat down and asked if Neal and I were using birth control during our fertility work up, to which I replied, Am I pregnant?!!!!!!!!!! Well yes. To which Neal and I looked at each other in amazement and said well that explains A LOT.

So today, June 15th, three months after my last post, I am 15 weeks and 4 days pregnant.

Crazy the way life works sometimes.
