WooHoo! Praise the Lord from whom all blessings flow! Thank you Lord, giver of life! I tested again Weds. morning and this morning and both times, a definite +HPT. Now the line isn't super dark - but it is definitely a line the same. I am due Christmas day this year.

No morning sickness yet. Of course, that has worry wart me worried. I will be happy when I start to feel queasy. But the last 2 mornings as soon as I take 1 bite of my oatmeal - bleck, I feel like it will come right back up. I am a bit tired and mildly crampy. Crampy is very common for me. I don't remember cramping with Liv, but with the last 2 I had quite a bit of first trimester cramping and lower abdominal pain.

I went to my PCM yesterday and had her do a quantitative HCG blood draw. I hope to hear tomorrow.

It seems as if all the pregnant women I know - their pregnancies are flying by. I hope mine does too - or at least the first trimester.

Yippee! Another baby in the family!!!! I haven't told mom - nor will I any time soon. Hoping to be able to keep it a secret until at least 13 weeks. So that would mean another 9ish weeks. How sad is it that I have to keep it from her? She has never been thrilled about any of my pregnanices. When hubby and I got pregnant the first time, granted we were barely making ends meet, but DH was working on getting into the military so he could do a 4 year stint and get out to lateral over to the US Marshalls. (In the end he ended up staying the military - and just hit his 10 year anniversary mark). Anyway, when we sat my mom down to "tell her something" she started blurting out, "OMG! OMG! Please don't tell me you are pregnant. PLEASE don't let it be that you are pregnant". Talk about devistated. When I was well into that first pregnancy she told me that in the beginning she had prayed that I would have a miscarriage. How CRUEL!!! To this day I feel so betrayed by her. Ugh. And yet after she gets over the shock she will be hurt that everyone knew looong before her. Hmm, lets see. I have to see her this weekend, and in about a month for mother's day. But after that it should be smooth sailing until the 4th of July. That should put me into my second trimester - I just may break it then. Sheesh it shouldn't have to be this way. On another hand - that means we can't tell hubby's parents (whom I know will be thrilled). If we tell MIL, she will tell FIL and he will call and tell my mom. If we tell FIL he will call my mom and let it slip. What a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.
