As you know with MTHFR I can't just go with the flow, and not try, or not worry about it. Shots have to be started on a certain day to even give myself a chance.The month of April came, and went. I never thought anything about becoming pregnant, being pregnant, or even wanting to be pregnant. On a Friday, I got sick at school. It progressively got worse throughout the day. It was weird. I thought it was allergies at first, but it wasn't. I came home and got in the bed for the rest of the night. The next morning, I took a test and it was positive. Great news! The even greater news was I started the shots two weeks before "just in case." God told me just to do them, so I did. But I NEVER thought I was pregnant.
Since then I have had 4 blood tests, two sonograms, and a lot of nausea. I don't like that feeling, but I love that am feeling something. The baby's heart beat is very strong and very fast (that means its a girl if you believe in old wives tails). However, we really don't care what our little blessing is, as long as she/he is healthy and happy. We will know the sex of our baby in 8 weeks!
I can't thank those of you who have been through our losses with us, prayed for us, constantly believed and supported us through this whole thing. I will continue to keep you posted about our very special miracle.
By the way, we set up an email address for the baby and have already sent a few emails. We plan on reading them to him/her at night before bedtime when she is old enough to understand them, and then giving her the password and information when she/he graduates so they will always know how much we love and support them, and always have. If you would also like to send an email, now or at anytime please do. The more the merrier!
