I had a miscarriage about 10 weeks before my first doctors appointment. While we were at the doctor we found out I was almost 10 weeks along. It certainly isn't common to get pregnant so quickly after a miscarriage. In fact, the nurse told us she'd never seen it that quick before. So we know this little squirt is supposed to be here!
About 6 weeks after the miscarriage, I felt pregnant, but didn't think it was possible. But a test said I was. I had some blood taken to confirm it, and the nurse said I shouldn't get attached to the pregnancy because being pregnant that quick after a miscarriage just doesn't happen. So we were thrilled to find out it was viable.
My doctor's appointment was on a Monday, and my sisters had a craft night that night. I was in charge of cupcakes. So I just added little ornaments to tell them. And I wore a little charm necklace.
When we told the boys, I sat them down and the conversation went like this:
"You know how mommy has been really sick and tired lately? I went to the doctor to find out why....."
Warren put his little hand up to stop me and said
"Please tell me he found a baby in your tummy!!!"
Me: "Yes buddy, he did."
He's so stinking smart.
The boys were thrilled. Warren really wants a girl. Weston really wants an orange baby. I want a healthy baby.
