Life Update : 13 weeks preggo :)

It took me a while to finally write about my "BIG" news... (literally... I'm just 3 mos. and a week pregnant BUT my belly is like a 5 month old baby bump,growing teeth, 'going to school with a trolly bag.) HUGE.

I have a friend who is 5 mos. pregnant and it's nothing like this belly.

ANYWAY. We waited 4 years for this baby to happen. Went to sorts of medication, fertility work ups and everything. But we didn't go to the extent of IVF and IUI... just fertility pills and counting ovulation dates. Haha it's a meticulous process... more science that romance. ALSO, I had trouble conceiving in the past because I dont ovulate on my own, I have erratic periods, heavy bleeding, PCOS and finally, an ACUTE Hyperplasia w/o Atypia... all those sent me to an over all total of 3 D & Cs. (Dilation and Curettage)

I know for a fact that  D&Cs could lead to the scarring of the uterus and then "NOT" ovulating worsens my chances of conceiving at all. But, after 2 failed tries on fertility pills ... THE 3rd, worked.  I just ovulated, I felt like the moment has come, I just knew I'd get pregnant this time... even without much further help from Science. My OB said... "it's a gift"... and it is. The window for being able to "fertilize" an egg is just 12 hrs.... I cannot imagine an "accidental" pregnancy at that tiny window of chance.  I think everyone is a GIFT. :)

AND so... everything so far is well... amazingly, my baby is positioned beautifully, I am not a high-risk case ... in spite of feeling that my uterus has been scraped and dug up a few times that I feel I should be vulnerable... but Baby isn't and I'm happy :)

So here is  "baby" ( he is just called "baby" for now... we dont know the gender yet :) at 11 weeks.

HIS back is turned. sorry. I guess he doesnt like camera after all... haha but we saw on the monitor that he has a face and 2 arms and legs.. and the heartbeat was good. Whew! thank God!

Well... that's it for now. Life is good :)
